Does anyone else think it's just a matter of time before we see a movie titled Like, Totally? (Or maybe there already kind of is one?) We are, like, totes convinced that commas are the wave of the future in movie titles, and this weekend's big releases tend to agree with us. more ›

--Haven't you always wanted to go to an event called HARVAPALOOZA? Well, now you can. Local band The Franklin Kite bring a special combination of musical prowess and astrophysics knowledge to Tommy Doyle's, where they'll play alongside Maya and The Trolleys to commemorate the palooza that is Harvard. Or something like that? Anyway, the show starts at 9 and it's totally free. A dance party will follow, so put your best foot forward. Hopefully it's not the left. more ›

Call it performance art. Call it comedy of irony. Call it, well, that’s the point. The Institute for Infinitely Small Things has begun the Initiative for the Renaming of Names in Cambridge. Through 13 separate renaming expeditions, they’ll compile a new nomenclature for the entire city of Cambridge. From what we see we’re not quite sure if they’re going to breach the sanctity of the every-other-block memorial square, but Porter is certainly fair game. From renaming Oxford St. to MIT St., which serves as address for much of Harvard’s science buildings – including the “on the cutting edge of technology” Maxwell-Dworkin, jokingly nicknamed for its prominent architectural angle - to renaming all of Harvard Square to ATM Square, the possibilities can only really get better. We’re especially interested in how they’ll approach some of the spaces that Cambridge shares with Somerville – Davis, Porter, Inman. Lechmere Station presents itself as a good target, hanging out all alone in East Cambridge. The project is sponsored by the Institute for Infinitely Small Things and the Cambridge Arts Council. The activity is participatory – let the windbaggery commence. more ›

After adopted celebrity children, Bostonist thinks that dogs are the best designer accessories ever. (The emergence of several dog boutiques in town only proves the point.) Soon, the Museum of Fine Arts will satisfy the crazy-for-canines demographic and the equally quirky group of people who enjoy non-traditional performance art with a public performance on Monday, September 26 from 6:00-6:30 pm by artist Zhang Huan. more ›

Unfortunately for their marketing department; with the power of the internet there isn’t too much that really can stay a secret for all too long. In fact, with a little help from Google we’ve learned that Stained will be playing a free show in Boston, August 9, 2005. The 'where' and at 'what time' are still a bit of a mystery, but it couldn’t be that hard to figure out (you could just sign up). We know that we were supposed to keep this all a secret but Bostonist totally blames Stained for spilling the beans.
