Rock On

RockOn Concert Cruises are a fantastic way to spend a beautiful summer night! Last summer I checked out the Deer Tick/​Aunt Martha concert cruise on an evening where the weather couldn’t have been more perfect. The crowd was crazy into the Deer Tick set, but I fell in love with Aunt Martha that evening — a great lineup choice by the outdoor boat venue, giving voice to a talented, much lesser-​known New England act. The sound quality wasn’t bad for being pitched around in the wind, there was ample space to move even though it was a sold out show, and while you still spent too much money on plastic cup drinks, good music on a boat sailing around the Boston Harbor made it worth it.
I’ll definitely be scouring the lineup again this year for good shows — if you can’t get on board with a summer concert cruise I’m pretty sure you’re a freedom-​hating terrorist, and you and I should not be friends. See ya’ll on the mother effing boat!
