Each week we’ll be featuring the latest information on shows, clubs, art, theatre, movies and music. This week: live music takes its turn in the spotlight.
There is a ton of great music and musicians arriving in Boston over the coming months – from up and coming stars such as Jamie Cullum, Snow Patrol, Keane, Muse and the Libertines to established legends such as Phil Collins, Metallica and manufactured pop princesses like Avril Lavigne and of course the lovable (?) American Idol lot.
Below is a list of some of the big names heading your way. So stop thinking about how much you enjoy going to listen to live music, and actually go do it.
