Boston, fronted by some guy named Tommy DeCarlo, cancels show in N.C. with several weeks notice

But didn't take as long to make as their third album.

 

Had a connection there last summer. What a shithole of an airport.

 

I assume this is blue font material, but fuck, no. Closer to the Spinal Tap 'where are they now' file. Or better yet, why are they still around.

All this serves to do is get about 30 other states scrambling to enact anti-GLBT laws to keep these poseurs off the stage.

 

In the Boston HOF, they're behind Aerosmith, the Pixies, the Cars and probably NKOB if not Marky Marky.

 

And Jules Shear, 'Til Tuesday, Guster, the Bernice Brothers, the Del Fuegos, Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Dropkick Murphys, Junius, the Lemonheads, and the J. Geils Band.

 

I forgot a few, but Til Tuesday, really?

 

Proclaimers, HOF?

They hit it big for at least a month once.

 

if you're going by the shitty boom boxes of roofers in my neighborhood Boston is HOF.

 

Over Boston? I'd take 'Til Tuesday over Boston in a heartbeat.

(I'm not about to make the case for 'Til Tuesday as a Hall of Fame band, but their third album -- "Everything's Different Now" -- is pretty damn great, and I think I'm one of about three people who own it.)

 

And Boston native Dick Dale.

 

Yeah, that's a weird one, isn't it? Never would have guessed he's a Boston guy.

He's number one on my list of acts that should be in the hall but aren't. (Followed by Joy Division/New Order and The Smiths.)

 

Wow. Never knew that either. Grew up in Mass, moved to Cali as a teenager.
