[Boston-Area Action 8/27/25] My Show-Going Plans & New Show Announcements
Posted on August 27, 2025 at 10:52 am | No Comments
Hi! It’s Wednesday morning, and somehow I’m in an actual good mood. I think it’s mainly weather-based. I’ll take it. Here’s the weekly post of two lists: Boston-area shows I’m planning on/hoping to attend this week (or would attend if I was around), along with shows I’m into that have been announced since the last time I did this.
I’m gonna list a couple things this weekend that I’ll be missing since I’ll be living an indie-rockin’ dream out at Dromfest ’25 in Catskill, NY. The lineup this year is nuts. But I thought that about the first two years as well. Cannot wait.
Two things of note: Tomorrow night’s show at Deep Cuts is the very definition of a DO NOT MISS. And Friday marks the very welcome return of free music at Notch Brewing in Brighton. So very psyched.
As always, check out the longer list over in the right hand column —>
