As you all probably know, tonight is Boston's 64th Offical Holiday Tree Lighting beginning at 6:30 PM and ending at 8:00 PM. This is not what suprises Bostonist, the great debate is over our fine city's decision to have the likes of Jordan Knight as a performer. We get the connection, The New Kids are Boston boys and there is a lot of pride in something like that - but we are not sure what kind of crowd the City was expecting to pull with booking Knight.
Back to the event on hand, the evening promises to be jam packed according to About.com, "The lighting of Boston Common and The Public Garden will feature entertainers including Jordan Knight (see above rant), Jon Secada, The Holy Tabernacle Church Choir, The Magic of Lyn, ParkARTS talent search winner Casey Pollard, vocalist Merle Perkins, The Boston Children’s Choir, an appearance by Santa Claus, and additional surprise guests."
