Hot Group Dynamic: Bang Camaro

by eldean | August 08, 2007
We were that little kid who never played well with others, and to this day, group projects make us cringe. But in the case of Bang Camaro , the bad-ass band out of Boston, it's all or nothing. The band's 20 - count 'em, 20 - lead singers belting...

Hot Call: Apple iPhone

by eldean | August 08, 2007
Forget the status bags and pricey scarves: the iPhone has proven itself the most covet-worthy accessory of the season. With its bad-ass phone features, widescreen iPod with browse-able album covers, über-advanced Web browser, impressive photo skills,...

Hot Transformation: Landsdowne Street

by eldean | August 08, 2007
No longer a haven for the glittery club kids who spill into the streets in the wee hours of the morning, Lansdowne Street is changing its tune. (Because, frankly, those club kids aren't raving the night away quite like they used to.) First on the...

Hot Expectation: Arts at the Armory

by eldean | August 08, 2007
Somerville has long been a city brimming with artists, but not until now have they had the arts facility that brothers Joseph and Nabil Sater have been working on for years. The pair, who have kept Central Square's Middle East a rock-and-roll destination...

Hot Comeback: Tir na Nog

by eldean | August 08, 2007
Neighborhood bars are the stuff that memories are made of. When one closes, it's like a friend has moved away. Such was the case when Robert Elliott shuttered the much loved, heavily trafficked Tir na Nog in March, after 11 years of Guinness flowing...

Hot Man with the Bands: Brian Viglione

by eldean | August 08, 2007
When we caught up with Brian Viglione in June, he and Amanda Palmer (together, better known as the Dresden Dolls) had just played Radio City Music Hall. Earlier this summer, the Boston-based duo was part of the True Colors Tour, featuring Cyndi Lauper...

Hot in 3-D: U2 3D

by eldean | August 08, 2007
For those of you who want to get up close and personal with Bono, the Edge, Adam, or Larry, now's your chance. In fact, you'll practically be able to reach out and touch the rockers, thanks to the upcoming release of U2 3D , a three-dimensional...

Hot (Funny) Bitches: the Steamy Bohemians

by eldean | August 08, 2007
Thwack together vaudevillian comic chops, astounding musicality, and oodles of quirky sex appeal and you've got the Steamy Bohemians , Boston's very own darlings of debauchery. Part glam rock, part stand-up comedy, and all sass, steamy duo Lainey...

Hot Sightings: Celebrities in Boston

by eldean | August 08, 2007
We're not saying we're LA, with stars on every street corner, but Boston's celeb factor is on the rise. In a town where Red Sox players, news anchors, and radio personalities have tended to be the ones on call for event-hosting duties, we've...

Hot House: The Estate

by eldean | August 08, 2007
Once you party at The Estate (1 Boylston Place, Boston, 617.351.7000), formerly known as Mansion Boston, it's tough to imagine yourself anywhere else. A hotspot ever since its February opening, the former home of the Big Easy has transcended its humble...

Hot to Our Ears: Jazz Nights

by eldean | August 08, 2007
Not that Boston lacks great dedicated venues for live jazz (hello, Scullers, Regattabar, Ryles, and others), but lately local restaurants have been stepping up the competition, programming their own weekly jazz nights . On Wednesday evenings, head downstairs...

Hot at Night: Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum

by eldean | August 08, 2007
Sometimes museum visits can feel like third-grade field trips: all hum-drum lectures, piped-in music, and blah cafeteria lunches. But not so at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum (280 The Fenway, Boston, 617.566.1401), especially beginning on September...

Hot Tunes: Scandinavian Invasion

by eldean | August 08, 2007
International artists have never been hard to come by, but a particular region hasn't dominated pop since the British invasion took hold in the 1960s. That changed this year with what we're informally christening the Scandinavian invasion . Some...

Hot and Live: Music at the New Hard Rock Cafe

by eldean | August 08, 2007
Sure, it's easy to write it off as a tourist trap. But we'd be missing out if we ignored the newly-opened Hard Rock Cafe (22-24 Clinton Street, Boston, 617.424.ROCK) and its potential to be one of the best live-music venues in the city. (Aaron...
