Do you feel so anxious or fearful of Thanksgiving with family that you know you'll be near your wit's end by Wednesday? It might be helpful (or perhaps even cathartic) to hear a whole lot of "crazed sounds created by the rejects, rebels and assorted losers of rock n' roll" come this Wednesday at 2pm. That is when you can hear Gorilla Got Me on WMBR. For extra angst, look into WMBR's archives, which offers episodes of Gorilla Got Me from weeks past....
We managed to get into one of comedian Jim Gaffigan's score of sold out performances this weekend at the Berklee Performance Center (pictured right, check out the "Sexy Tour" poster they had inside) and we were not disappointed. Perhaps you've seen Gaffigan's various Comedy Central Specials, his CD & DVD of "Beyond the Pale", his myriad late night TV appearances (particularly on "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" where he's teamed up to form the animated superhero duo "Pale Force") or his performances on......

Comedian Brian Regan makes a return to the Orpheum this Friday night. Regan has performed solo at the Orpheum in the past as well as in support of Denis Leary's charity-fest "Comics Come Home". Brian Regan is familiar to many, what with his 19+ appearances on "The Late Show With David Letterman", as well as countless appearances on Conan/Johnny Carson/Dr. Katz/Opie and Anthony/Comedy Central specials/etc. One thing you'll get when seeing Brian Regan live is new material. Regan just had a very funny Comedy Central special, "The Epitome......
