Fenway Concertgoers Say This Was the ‘Best Performer Ever’ in Massachusetts
Fenway Park feels magical for so many reasons, even when the Red Sox aren't playing a ball game. It's one of the best venues for a concert in the summertime, because the overall vibes still seep into the atmosphere at nighttime. My first concert at Fenway Park was Morgan Wallen, and I'll never forget it. From getting to the venue early enough to hit Caskin' Flagon beforehand then hitting Fenway Johnnie's afterwards, it's just an overall fun experience.

Karen Read Homicide Trial Update: A Motion Hearing, a Juror in Fear, Charges of Targeted Vandalism, and of Course a Netflix Doc on the Way
I know the look. I've seen it before and I see it now with alarming frequency as time passes and the problem only gets worse. The pale skin. Dry mouth. Hollow, glassy eyes doing a middle distance stare that looks right through you, sizing you up. Interested in nothing about you other than evaluating whether or not you can hook them up. "Are you holding?" they might say. Curiously both angry and yet somehow indifferent toward you when you tell them "I got nothing for you."
