Justina just called me an hour ago to tell me that they’re playing tonight and tomorrow night at The Middle East, and I now have tickets in hand! They still have a few tickets for both nights at the box office, if anyone’s in the area. Huzzah!

Filed under: — Joe @ 5:23 pm

The Boston Society of Architects and Boston Society of Landscape Architects are conducting a public presentation tomorrow (Feb. 4) entitled Celebrating Boston: Design Visions for the Rose Kennedy Greenway. The presentation will focus on what will become of the urban land freed up by the impending dismantling of the elevated Central Artery, now slated for late 2004. (Here’s an article from the Boston Globe on the topic.) The talk will be held at 6pm at the Boston Public Library, with refreshments beforehand.

Exploit Boston: A Boston Events Guide

Filed under: — Joe @ 6:25 pm

Most city guide sites have piles of event listings, but they’re always presented without much information or opinion, as John Hiler points out in his article explaining the motivation behind CityBlogs. CityBlogs currently only covers NYC, but for Bostonians, there’s Exploit Boston.
