KT Tunstall "Hold's On" to First Act Guitar

1.5, Marx, Bex & Bevs reporting here from the 'BOS Street Team Headquarters. We just got back from a mind blowing journey at First Act Guitar on Bolyston Street where KT Tunstall played a private show for some lucky WBOS V.I.P. Winners! KT rocked the crowd with her new single "Hold On" and smash hit "Black Horse and a Cherry Tree" before interviewing with our famous afternoon DJ John Laurenti. The crowd was completely stunned by KT's vivacious sultry voice. "She packs a strong sound for such a sweet, little person," one V.I.P. winner commented after the show. All in all it was a drastic fantastic start to the week. Until our next adventure...

Hugs & Out, The Kids

The Police @ Fenway The Sequel

Bex and Marx reporting here again for your own little personal message in a bottle. We just got back from the Fenway Park hood where the second night of The Police show was taking place. The streets of Yawkey Way and Landsdowne were filled with loyal music fans before the gates to the park were opened. While in the 'BOS truck, (aka Carl), we were able to hand out WBOS CDs to lucky fans and toss a few of our signature Copley Square Summer Concert Series Frisbees out to those eager go-getters enjoying the Boston summer evening. The vibe outside the park was amazing and we can only imagine how much fun those lucky kids are having at this very moment! As we like to say, "Every little thing Sting does is magic!" Until next time, keep that red light off!

Peace & The Police, Bex and Marx

SMOE @ Peabody Essex Museum

Mark & Becca here from the WBOS Street Team! We have just returned from The Peabody Essex Museum where George Knight Broadcasted Live for Sunday Morning Over Easy. This was the Third Annual SMOE @ The Peabody Essex Museum and it was not to be missed as over 50 WBOS V.I.P. members showed up to meet George and receive some great 'BOS gear as we were handing out shirts and 'BOS CD's, as well as our Trademark WBOS CD Opener Key Chains "Be Careful" as we always say "There is a Blade in there"!! Anyways the fun and excitement didn't end there George was on his game as always handing out George Knight Gear while playin' games with the crowd! He had a great interview with Janie Winchell a Curator for the Peabody Essex Museum about the Museums great new Exhibit "Origami Now"! An Exhibit that allows Museum goers to test their skills @ creating Folding Paper Art etc.. There was also a great Continental Breakfast available for all Contest Winners as well as Free Passes to the Museum. Overall this was a great day for all and the weather held up allowing the Sun to shine through for us all! So until next year go get "Origamisized" yeah!!

And remember...."Don't Cut Yo' Self"

Police

Amanda and 1.5 reporting. As the Police concert held at Fenway Park, was getting under way we had the oppurtunity to get out in the public and speak to some of the die hard fans. People of all ages filled Yawkey Way waiting for the gates to open. For many this was their first Police concert however many others were representing past years concert shirts. Despite the torrential downpoars earlier in the day, everyone was anxious for the concert to begin. We were told "even though it cost us $450(a ticket) it will be worth every penny". Signing off...Amanda &1.5

We have the..."North Shore Spirit!"

Bex and 1.5 reporting here! As the Black Hawk helicopter roared over the crowd as it took off during the last lines of the Star Spangled Banner, the "Army Weekend" was off and running. The N.S. Spirit players were sporting new camoflauge jerseys in honor of the weekend, while fans got the oppurtunity to climb a rock wall, have a hot dog, and get the full 'BOS experience. At a comfortable 83 degrees it was a perfect Friday night for a baseball game and good music. By the end of the night everyone was walking out with a summer sampler in there hand and a smile across there face. Hugs and out... Bex and 1.5

The Cat "Empire...Strikes Back"

Despite the heat, the 3rd week of the Copley summer series was a huge success. Fans of all kinds stormed Copley Square Park while Eli "Paperboy" Reed greeted them with smooth vocal lines laid over an explosive rhthym section. As The Cat Empire hit the stage the crowd started to squirm in there seats eventually turning into a dance party. Playing a seamless set made the exhausted crowd forget about the heat and feel the heavy groove laid down by The Cat Empire. Overall it was an amazing night and enjoyed by all. Untill next time.....

Clay Subaru in Norwood

Mark and Becca here from the WBOS Street Team. Today we went to Clay Subaru in Norwood. The gals and fellas from the Subaru Staff were so generous and excited for the promotion we had today. Because the weather was so wonderful, we got to set up outside and play music from our new 'BOS sampler CD and past Live From the Archives CDs. The Clay Subaru staff even took out a grill and made some food while we enjoyed the day. We had plenty of t-shirts and sampler CDs to give away to customers who seemed to especially enjoy the first track off the sampler CD called "Good Excuse" by John Butler Trio who we all got to enjoy when he played our past EarthFest concert in May. Till next time....
Keep on rockin', Bex and Marx

The Valvoline Experience...

1.5 and Becca here. We just got back from the Valvoline in Framingham where we celebrated the Grand Opening! All customers were offered half off oil changes, free food, and the wonderful company of the 'BOS street team. The Valvoline staff greeted cars with large checkered flags on Route 9. Customers enjoyed The Cat Empire playing in the background while their cars were being serviced. Many were unfamiliar with the C.E. and are now extremely excited for the upcoming Copley concert this Thursday. Hope to see you there...
1.5 & Becca, hugs and out

Bluesfest '07

Hello!!
This is Mark and 1.5 from the Street Team here @ WBOS! This weekend we were at The 2007 Bluesfest held @ The Beautiful Plymouth Memorial Hall! It was a very exciting night, it started out as a party on the Memorial Hall steps as we had concert goers dancing to music, playing games and winning prizes! Once the doors opened the party really started, as Blues fans were treated to an exceptional show, there was just about a packed house and everyone was dancing and having a blast! The standout performances were given by Professor Harp and Headliner The James Montgomery Band! James and his band were great! However Grace Kelly and her amazing Sax playing stole the show as she was brought up on stage for about 3 or 4 songs with James Montgomery! Overall it was a Tremendous Event! We cannot wait to have the privilege to do another Event @ this Amazing Venue. If you haven't been to The Plymouth Memorial Hall we suggest you do! The place is perfect for anyone looking to see a great show!

We also want to remind all of you reading this post that this Thursday, July 19th Live @ Copley Square will be Martin Sexton and Chad Perrone! Show starts @ 5:30 p.m. and is "FREE" for all to attend!!

Well until next time 1.5 and I will be signing off hope to see all of you Thursday!!
