Itinerário
Projetado por Frederick Law Olmsted, o Fens é um espaço verde precioso em Boston e apresenta a Segunda Guerra Mundial mais antiga da América, o Victory Gardens. No EP Modern Lovers, Jonathan Richman canta: “Eu ando pelo 'Fenway com o coração na mão". Passearemos pelos jardins antes de entrar na Kenmore Square.
Durante décadas, Kenmore Square esteve no centro da cena musical de Boston graças às inúmeras lojas de discos e locais como Storyville e o lendário clube de rock The Rathskeller. Aqui, aprenderemos sobre as inúmeras bandas de garagem, punk e new wave que surgiram do "The Rat" nos anos 70 e 80. O Police tocou aqui 4 vezes em sua primeira turnê pelos Estados Unidos em 1979. Este também é o local onde os Pixies compartilharam pela primeira vez o mesmo show que os Throwing Muses. Além disso, passaremos pela "Nuggets", uma das últimas lojas de discos que restam no bairro, antes de dar uma volta pelo Fenway Park.
Caminhe pela Landsdowne Street à sombra do Fenway Park e ouça histórias de locais do passado e do presente, incluindo o Boston Tea Party, Venus De Milo, Avalon/Axis, Spit e muito mais! Atualmente, bandas locais e nacionais chegam à rua Landsdowne para tocar no House of Blues ou no novo MGM Music Hall.

My daughter and I ended with a personal tour, as no others were scheduled during our time. Matt met us promptly and was a knowledgable, enthusiastic and engaged tour guide. Enjoyed seeing the items in the Verb Hotel and the town as we walked around. He was very helpful when we needed directions to head to another area of town after the tour and with a suggestion for a place for lunch (and took us there). Highly recommend this tour with someone who clearly loves the subject and Boston.
For anyone who is interested in rock music (Pixies, Nirvana, Radiohead, The Cars, Bruce Springsteen, just to name a few) and would like to learn about their connection to Boston, I would highly recommend this tour. Matt, the guide, is a local musician himself is very approachable and entertaining. Recommend!
Very enjoyable, fun tour that covers how important Boston was to the developing rock, punk, and indie music scene. The Guide/Matt was very knowledgeable and friendly. Even if you're familiar with Boston, this tour shows tge city in a different light.
As New England natives,long time concert goers, and potential Berklee student we had a great time on the Soundscape walking tour through Fenway and Kenmore Square! Our guide, Matt, brought the party and took us on a nostalgic journey. His unmatched enthusiasm from the start, truly brought the history to life. He asked about our personal customer preferences and musical tastes before we kicked off, tailoring the stories to hit on our favorite genres and artists. As a local musician, his knowledge is impressive. He shared deep, gritty, behind-the-scenes trivia about vanished legendary venues like The Rat and icons like JGeils, Aerosmith, New Kids on the Block and the Pixies. Matt was a great Hang and very generous with his knowledge not only of the rock n roll scene but also Berklee and the current Boston music scene we would and have recommended his tour! Enjoy
