Resplan
Designad av Frederick Law Olmsted, Fens är ett uppskattat grönområde i Boston och har Amerikas äldsta andra världskriget, Victory Gardens. På Modern Lovers EP sjunger Jonathan Richman, "I walk through the 'Fenway with my heart in my hand". Vi kommer att promenera genom trädgårdarna innan vi beger oss in på Kenmore Square.
I decennier var Kenmore Square i centrum för Bostons musikscen tack vare de många skivbutikerna och arenor som Storyville och den legendariska rockklubben The Rathskeller. Här kommer vi att lära oss om de många garage-, punk- och new wave-banden som kröp ut ur "the Rat" på 70- och 80-talen. The Police spelade här 4 gånger på sin första USA-turné 1979. Detta är också platsen där Pixies först delade samma räkning som Throwing Muses. Vi kommer också att stanna till vid "Nuggets" en av de sista skivbutikerna som finns kvar i grannskapet innan vi slingrar oss runt Fenway Park
Gå nerför Landsdowne Street i skuggan av Fenway Park och hör berättelser om tidigare och nuvarande platser, inklusive Boston Tea Party, Venus De Milo, Avalon/Axis, Spit och mer! För närvarande laddar lokala och nationella band in på Landsdowne street för att spela på House of Blues eller nya MGM Music Hall.

A really fun and informative couple of hours! Definitely recommend if you're a music fan visiting Boston. Matt's a great guide.
Music fans are in for a treat with the Soundscapes Boston Music Tour! Matt is highly knowledgeable and enthusiastic about historical and cultural events that shaped the Boston music scene, from jazz and folk, to 60-70’s rock and alternative indie. It was fun walking around and learning more about influential artists who put Boston on the map. Special thanks to Matt for being so helpful and accommodating. He was a pleasure to work with and highly recommend his tour!
The tour was very fun and full of great facts about influential bands that got their start in Boston. The tour guide put together a very well thought out experience with lots of fun sights around the city.
Matt has an extensive knowledge & passion for the music scene. He is articulate and witty. The tour was a blast. We learned interesting things, not just about music but local iconic features. Totes recommend!🤘🎶
Matt’s knowledge and enthusiasm are great. Spot on for rock fans. Added bonus walking through the Fens to understand what that’s all about.
Matt was very great tour guide. We learned lots of information on famous artists. There also was a Belfast connection with the Oh Ya studio.
The tour was informative and fun! Matt was knowledgeable and friendly. His accessories (photos, music recordings) added to the experience. The places he took us to along the route were all important to the Boston music scene. His stories to match the locations were great to learn. The walk was manageable with a reasonable distance and pace.
The tour guide was awesome - very knowledgeable and entertaining. I loved the stories - he must've mentioned at least 15 bands I really like. And starting and ending at the Verb Hotel was a real bonus - that place has some amazing rock memorabilia.
