They're at #DeepCuts in #MedfordMA - go! They're 100% a band you'll brag about seeing in a tiny club one day, before they blew up. at least put their new record on your short list for #bandcampFriday https://toot.boston/@knizer/117284290058774113 https://perennialtheband.bandcamp.com/album/modernism #BostonDancing #bostonMusic #NewMusic #perennial

#BostonWeekend META if you're new, hi - i'm @knizer@toot.boston - every week i sit down to look at events listings for an hour. Then, I write up the good stuff in a thread here. It's not comprehensive, and sometimes I make mistakes, but I usually find out about weird happenings most weeks, and that means you find out about them too. Neat, right?

#BostonWeekend META My hope is that when you're talking with (ahem) normal people in the Real World™, you can highlight that this sort of community-nurturing project is the norm here on the #fediverse. And maybe they join the cult of ad free, non-corporate social media. So, follow me/this tag, and boost the thread when you see it to help get the word out for #boston - have a great weekend!
