19 Aug Wyclef Jean at Neighborhood Theatre on August 10 So, I’m waiting for an hour for the show to begin. DJ keeps playing ... yawn. Opener plays a few songs ... okay. And then this dude comes out in total darkness and starts playing guitar. And it’s Wyclef playing “Gone Til November.” As an opener.

16 Aug Coconut Grove at Beantown on August 11 Oh my God! Has anyone else noticed that Beantown Tavern in Matthews has been booking bands?

And the concert was fun, too.
