This is the second annual Soozapalooza -- an excuse to throw a big party a few day safter my birthday. And it's a whole lot of awesome rock + roll. :) I hope you can join me! We'll also celebrate my music guide + blog Exploit Boston! turning nine years old (and it's triumphant return to the Internets.) Proceeds from the night will help Exploit Boston! Radio return to the internet airwaves.

Featuring the Soozapalooza Supergroup, an all-star cast of Boston musicians getting together to cover a handful of songs. Mistle Thrush, the first Boston band I became a fan of when I moved to Boston in 1994 is joining us for a special performance. Their first in eight years!
