My guy and I went into Boston last night to hear YES at the House of Blues. While we stood in line in the cold (especially for Boston) for a half hour (even with tix!), paid an exorbitant amount of dough for parking, and then lingered/swayed/rocked out on a cold, grey concrete floor listening to this iconic prog rock band, I kept asking him (much to his annoyance):

“Why the hell can’t this be happening in Worcester?”

So, Worcester, why couldn’t a couple of aging boomers grab supper in Wormtown and then head to a mid-sized concert venue and rock out to YES? We could have saved time, money and most likely parked our aging arses on fairly cushy seats if the YES concert had been held, say, in the FUCKIN’ PALLADIUM! Click to continue »
