I’ve been sitting and watching the entire ALCS Game 2 between the Sox and the Indians but I swear this must be one of the longest baseball games I have ever seen. It migh just be Fox’s first-rate botching of post season baseball, which is like being bludgeoned and my mind has gone adrift. Still, [...]

For the first time ever I am spinning the new Radiohead CD, In Rainbows . I’m not here to review the CD or talk about its merits, but I’m happy to listen to the band’s first new CD in something like four years. I know that they had been working on it for a [...]

“And I’ll learn to get by/On the little victories” ~ Matt Nathanson
I wrote a post a few days ago about the ‘little victories’ that I’ve been having lately in relation to Faneuil Hall and I wanted to address a couple other pivotal moments that have happened to me and how they have offered encouragement. Separate [...]

At noon today I have a meeting at WERS, which is Emerson’s big college radio station. I’m meeting with one of the senior engineers there and one of his classmates about potentially recording another EP. I was not planning on recording anymore this year but I received an e-mail from him a couple weeks ago [...]

Today I wrote a letter to Josh Ritter. To be more precise, yesterday I wrote an e-mail to Josh Ritter. The afternoon after seeing his concert I had a chance to reflect and felt like I wanted to thank him for the superb music from the night before. I won’t lie in saying that there [...]

I’m a little bummed out because I woke up today and it is really cold. It’s a shame because it’s a total 180 from the weather yesterday and I was hoping to get back out to Faneuil Hall today…
Yesterday was a beautiful Faneuil Hall day. The renaissance is complete because I had an awesome time [...]

“Some prophecies are self-fulfilling; But I’ve had to work for all of mine” ~ Josh Ritter
So I had to post this tonight before I go to bed and lose some of the buzz. However, I am watching the Sox and it is playoff time and it is in the 8th inning and tied 3-3 so [...]

This is the second year that I have performed at Faneuil Hall as a streetperformer. Three years ago I auditioned and did not make the program but have made it two years running and it has been great. Last year I played a couple times a week at best and was happy that I had [...]

Moving forward I think I’m going to look into purchasing a digital camera and start posting pictures from the shows that we play including load-in, crowd shots, and fans and stuff. I think it would supplement this blog well and I could open up photo journals and stuff. What do you think? Great. Ha. I [...]

I, Brian Bergeron, have entered the world of blogging. It has been a long time coming and I leave in its wake a series of half-filled journals in which with earnest intent I begin writing only to lose interest a few weeks into the venture but I hope this time is charmed.
The reason I have [...]
