Nevermind the first week of the month, hosting bands from Tokyo, Baltimore and
Portland, we be flippin come July’s second weekend with TWO daytime outdoor All Ages
events, both happening steps away from Green Street Station in JP. First we gettin GRASS
STAINS all over JP PORCHFEST Saturday 7/9 which we’re co­presenting thing with our big­ sister org Girls Rock Campaign Boston and doing so in a radical new (and sadly temporary)
warehouse space, at CityPop in Egleston. Then Sunday 7/10 we take over another under­ utilized spot, the parking lot at 420 Amory Street, for our first ever outdoor BLACK MARKET!
Thanks to City Realty for donating this incredible space to us, it’s gonna be bonkers. 11 more
shows this month to boot too including Goodwill Smith for POOL 7/19, WICKED MESS for Dent
and Gamma Pope tour homecoming 7/23, Alex Calder, Cloud Becomes Your Hand, Neptune
and more. Easy now, Summer. We ain’t the only ones either. Not by damn far…. Scope our CHOSEN SHOWS calendar
both here in­print and online for our favorite shows of the month, especially All Ages gigs but
wherever the wild sounds go we go ya know? What about the wild sights you say? Well we also
maintain a dank listing for FILM and ART events which need even more help keeping up with. This is a great volunteer activity actually, which turns idle downtime or even those paid working
hours at your mindless job into rewarding culture boosting. Think about it… Bored at work?
Chomp the comp, know the shows. Or maybe we’re missing something? We’re always on the
hunt for more freaky junk so give us a shout if you think we should tout. It’s what we’re about. You get the idea. Thanks for picking up the rag.
