A small Mass. town faces a very big data center debate
Hey Massachusetts Politicos, It's Katie, Margie's editor, filling in as she's taking a much-deserved break after all the election coverage last week. With the election buzz still happening after the blue wave during the midterms, you might have seen that the freshman representatives heads to Washington D.C. for their orientation. Most of the people elected in Massachusetts have a few (or more) terms until their belts, but there was one new face, Dan Koh, who filled the District 6 seat Seth Moulton vacated when he chose to run for Senate.

Review & setlist: Journey soldiers into Boston before (allegedly) going their separate ways
The Final Frontier Tour is supposedly the band's last after 53 years and many personnel changes. Journey at TD Garden, Boston, Nov. 10, 2026. Journey made music meant to be heard in three contexts: behind the bedroom door of a teenager whose parents disapprove of rock music, blasting through the rolled-down windows of a secondhand Z28, and in arenas. With the band’s core fanbase too old for the first and (probably) too responsible for the second, that left the last option on Tuesday, as the veteran band brought its Final Frontier Tour to the TD Garden.

For 30 years, a venerable cavalcade of comedy’s biggest names have made their way to Boston for one night in the fall to celebrate Comics Come Home. In many ways, the show itself has taken on the feeling of a summer camp gathering, where comics who aren’t always on the same shows can take their foot off the gas for a night, and trade in the hustle and bustle of the industry for a simple night of laughs with their friends.
