Just seen 'em last night. It pouring rain, and I had the time of my life! They played all of their good stuff, and it sounded awesome! If they roll through your town, I recommend picking up some tickets. And if you've already seen them before, go again!!! One BAD-ASS SHOW!!!

poor Giganfan. no one responded to this until now.
i'm sorry, but this is the one band i loathe, except their one song, "Smokin'" which is pretty good. just too overproduced to make me want to listen to them.
it happened when i was in high school, and the local AOR snore station would play threefers sometimes on the weekend. well, they played three Boston songs which must have lasted about 2 hours and really sounded like the same song.
i wrote it in my journal that evening, that i hated that band.
so that's my Boston story.

Well Boston definately has a sound all it's own. That first album is classic in my opinion. There's not one song on it that I don't like. I just think they're a really good rock n' roll band. Their music wasn't political, it wasn't self-loathing and it wasn't poetic. It's just good, sound music, if you ask me. Nothing groundbreaking, mind you, but I don't think they shot for that. Boston rocks out hard. And any band that sounds just as good live as they do on their albums (and I'm saying that they play every song exactly as it is on the record, and it sounds sweet), that's a treat for me. I've only been to something like twelve live shows, lifetime total and Boston live at Freedom Hill on July 27th, 2004 in the freezing rain is easily one of the best that I was able to experience.
