Review: Almost every night, I spend around 30 minutes entering contests to win concert tickets. It’s a nice way to wind down the end of the day, do something in the background, while watching TV, you can do something mindless while also having the chance to do one of my favorite things: going to concerts Over the past two years, I have probably won 20 concerts. I don’t attend all of them. But it’s pretty cool to see so many people for free.
I was pumped when I found out Tickets to passion pit things to 92.5 The River. I saw passion pit one other time, back in 2017 when I lived out in Denver. Like so many people, “Sleepyhead” and “Little Secrets” were a big part of my formative years and I would love to see them played live again.
I knew that this would be a good show because they are a Boston band, originally meeting at And getting their start at Emerson College.
The shows started off with a representative, giving Michael, the man being Passion Pit, an official document stating that July 24 would now be known as Passion Pit to a in the city of Boston.
A big part of the tour was about how Passion Pit was back and touring with a full live band. And this held up to our expectations. The drums were really great, the longer intros leading into hit songs which lead the crowd into eruption was awesome.
The set, before the encore, ended with “Carried Away” and was followed by “Little Secrets” and “Sleepyhead.” The crowd lost their minds when “Carried Away” started and they kept that energy going for the rest of the set.
The band played some new, unreleased songs like “Everything’s Stephanie,” a song that I can’t wait to play on repeat once it’s streaming.
A friend of mine recently texted me with a pretty simple question:
“What’s good on peacock? I got it for a month?”
It’s a fair question. Most of us subscribe to streaming services for a specific show, a free trial, or a good deal, only to realize we have no idea what else is worth our time. Peacock is one of those services that quietly has a surprisingly deep library. Between classic sitcoms, original series, blockbuster movies, documentaries, live sports, and a handful of hidden gems, there’s a lot to choose from—but not everything deserves a spot on your watchlist.
So I put together the recommendations I immediately thought of. Whether you’re planning to binge an entire series, revisit an old favorite, or finally watch something you’ve been putting off for years, these are the titles I’d recommend checking out before your month is up.

The show is hilarious and the weekend update anchors absolutely crush it.

The post-apocalyptic television show is equal parts hilarious as it is violent and stars Anthony Mackie and Stephanie Beatriz.
I recently discovered Flawed Mangoes and was instantly impressed with Evan Lo’s guitar style and talent. I’m a big fan of ambient, post-rock, and experimental music that builds slowly and really relies on hammer-ons, finger tapping, and unique guitar techniques.
I won tickets to the show through Do617 and was really excited to check it out. The more I read about the artist behind the project, the more excited I got because I knew this was going to be a special show.
Evan Lo, the man behind Flawed Mangoes, has been a Massachusetts resident for over half a decade. Before making music full time, he worked as an engineer at Bose. While he had been releasing music for years, things really took off in 2023 when his song “Swimming” found a huge audience on TikTok. The song became heavily remixed and shared, helping introduce millions of listeners to his atmospheric sound. His music has since become associated with the growing “hopecore” movement—a genre and online community centered around emotional, uplifting, and nostalgic music paired with inspiring visuals.
This show was the final stop on Flawed Mangoes’ first-ever headlining tour, and what better place to wrap it up than his home state.
The venue seemed packed with close friends, family, and longtime fans who came out to support Lo and the band.
The band took the stage wearing headlamps, with several people in the crowd doing the same. During the instrumental sections, the music reminded me heavily of Explosions in the Sky, with beautiful guitar melodies that slowly built into huge, anthemic endings. When Lo stepped up to the microphone, the band shifted into a grungier sound that reminded me a bit of Modest Mouse.
The band played a solid set and even brought out a special guest to perform turntables on one of the newer tracks, adding another unexpected layer to an already memorable hometown show.
Review: I usually find it obnoxious when people tell you to manifest your destiny. I’m not one for motivational quotes. But few have pursued their dreams as relentlessly as the man behind Josiah and the Bonnevilles.
After appearing on American Idol, Josiah Leming signed a deal with a major label, but things eventually fell through. Instead of giving up, he kept chasing his dream of making music full-time.
A few years back, the Tennessee native was working as both a bartender and in an Amazon warehouse. Determined to make music work, he doubled down, releasing as much music as possible and growing a devoted following online. Covers like Justin Bieber’s “Ghost” introduced him to an entirely new audience and eventually allowed him to leave those jobs behind and make music his full-time career once again. And we are all lucky that happened.
Josiah and the Bonnevilles is currently on the Redline tour, named after one of the songs on the latest album, As Is. Both the album and tour find Josiah backed by a full band.
I saw him solo two years ago at the Paradise in Boston and the show was so intimate and special. It felt like just hanging out in a living room while a friend plays guitar. And even though this tour found him at House of Blues with a live band, it still had that same feeling.
The whole band crushed it on stage. It further confirmed that Nashville has some of the best musicians out there. One thing that makes me truly love a concert is seeing the musicians up on stage giving it their all. Not there to collect a check. There to live out their dream and put on the best show each night. And that’s exactly what this was. Josiah thanked the crowd after every song and told the crowd how much he loved them. And that the crowd will always be the Bonnevilles.

Review: Bilmuri put on a fantastic show at MGM Music Hall in Boston. The full, live band is extremely talented and Gabi Rose just destroys on stage, as usual. And Johnny always seems to be just having a blast doing this every night for crowds all over the world. He thanked the crowd multiple times throughout the show and mentioned recently being signed to Columbia. He made a great observation that when you visit their website now, he is sandwiched between Beyoncé, Billy Joel, Blink-182, and Bob Dylan.
They played a lot of newer songs, most of the best tracks from American Motorsports, and some deep cuts.
I was joined by two friends who went for The Home Team and walked away telling me they will definitely be joining me next time Bilmuri is in town.
