Monday Morning: Levon Helm and The Band
The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down
One of the great adventures I had living in Boston was driving over to Woodstock to Helmland to hear Levon and Amy and assorted brilliant museum perform some of The Band’s best. When they did this song, they brought . the . house . down! What a joy.
Have a great week. [s]
The city of Boston is one of my earliest childhood memories and experiences. It is a incredibly diverse city with so many different cultures gathered in one place, especially with Cambridge next to it right across the river.
Next summer my city will finally, after decades of waiting, be connected by commuter rail to it. I look forward to going there often again.
Harvard Square, oh the memories that place prompts in me! Eating at Grendel’s was one of my first exposures to the Harvard environment. My uncle brought me when I was 17. It was the first time I ever had hummus, and got to see a very different crowd of people from the small town I grew up in.
