    EEEK!! Bunratty's Reunion.....
    we mentioned a while ago that AJ Wachtel, infamous Allston personality from the 80's and person behind Allston 'zine The Beat has been working on "Boston Gets a Grip", a CD of Boston bands recording Aerosmith songs (Hmm, OK whatever-Ed) so, the record release party for Boston Gets a Grip will be on Sunday afternoon, July 19 at the Wonder Bar (formerly BUNRATTY'S!!!!) in Allston.
    AUJ says: One group I know who will be performing is the Bristols who are getting back together for this show after 9 years. On Boston Gets a Grip, is the song Seasons of Whither, which is the ONLY SONG The Bristols have ever recorded and released. So, if you are a Bristols fan you will want to see the show and buy the cd.
Also, Jody Sandwich (of Highland Moore) and John Felice will be performing too.
    Lastly we got a message from Boby Bear....(who needs to grow hair ALL over the top of his head as far as I'm concerned)....he just came back from a trip to LALA Land and met with Johnny Angel AND went to visit old friend Joan Howard Maurer...Three Stooges Moe Howard's daughter..turns out, nyuck nyuck nyuck Boby was friends with both Moe and Larry, well I oughta..... we have a pick of Boby with Moe's daughter holding a piece of artwork he sent to Moe many years ago!..
