Boston After Party

Instinct tells you to crawl into bed and stay there for a couple of days after finishing a marathon. But if you're in a great city like Boston, with friends and/or family, it's worth trying to rally your body and soul for a little adventure on the town.

My wife Taj's younger brother Nigel suggested we come out to see a show across the river in Cambridge. Some of his friends were performing, and he sat in and played the mandolin with them on a couple of songs. The surprise of the night was Spirit Family Reunion, a Brooklyn-based band whose video is below.

This song in particular stuck with me, and has been in my head intermittently ever since:

  1. I really dig this tune. It loosely reminds me of a group called the Dovekins who I saw open for State Radio who are coincidentally also a Boston group.
