Apologies for coming to you late this week. We’ve been hard at work out in those salt mines, and these things don’t write themselves. Alas, your rundown… There’s a poetry reading tomorrow, but it seems you’ll have to find the address yourself. Friday brings the opportunity to see local faves Savoy Motel, Idle Bloom, Sun Seeker, and Daddy Issues all for free at Mercy Lounge. The old timers take over this weekend with Wings’ Denny Laine performing Band On the Run on Saturday and Emmylou Harris playing City Winery on Sunday. And you lucky duck, Boston’s Adult closes out the week at the East Room.
