This Bizarre Massachusetts Roadside Attraction Is So Wonderfully Weird You Have To See It Yourself

There are things you expect to see on a drive through Lincoln, Massachusetts, and a field full of rocking horses arranged in a circle is not one of them. Ponyhenge sits along a quiet road in Lincoln, doing absolutely nothing and somehow pulling it off with more charisma than most things that are actively trying.

ThunderBeard: ZZ Top Tribute in Pittsfield

ThunderBeard, a ZZ Top tribute band, plays the Colonial Theatre on Friday night. The band, which wears the signature beards, covers the career of ZZ Top. The first half of the set draws on the group’s bluesy 1970s songs, including “La Grange,” “Waitin’ for the Bus,” and “Brown Sugar.” It then moves to the synth-heavy hits of the 1980s, like as “Gimme All Your Lovin’,” “Sharp Dressed Man,” and “Legs.”

The Stockbridge Mohican Militia Company in the American Revolution

Emerging Revolutionary War welcomes back guest historian Larry Howard. From 1775 to 1777, Mohican Indians from Stockbridge, Massachusetts, formed a Patriot militia company that served in the American revolution, including the siege of Boston, the capture and siege of Fort Ticonderoga, the Battle of Saratoga, and the Battle of Monmouth. In the summer of 1789, while patrolling in the Kingsbridge, New York, area in what is now the Bronx, the Stockbridge company was attacked by British Lt. Col. John Simcoe’s Loyalist Queen’s Rangers in a battle alternately known as the Battle of Kingsbridge, the Battle of Cortland Ridge, or the Battle of Van Cortlandt’s Woods. It is also known as the Stockbridge Massacre, because the Queens’ Rangers killed an estimated forty Stockbridge Indians. The Rangers had one soldier killed and three wounded. This ended the Stockbridge Indian militia company’s service.

The weight of what we witness

Sometimes it feels like there’s more happening in the world than can be fully processed. The constant stream of news about war, violence and displacement can leave people feeling frustrated or overwhelmed, unsure of how to respond. It can be difficult to put those feelings into words, especially when the events unfolding around us seem so far beyond our control.

Show Review: Jeff Tweedy w/ Case Oates at the Mahaiwe

Jeff Tweedy w/ Case Oates at the Mahaiwe Performing Arts Center on October 30, 2026. The idea that one singular person could keep a sold-out venue entertained, amused, and at times spell bound all in one night with just a guitar and some well-crafted original songs is extraordinary, yet that is just what Jeff Tweedy did on Friday night, October 30, 2026 at the Mahaiwe Performing Arts Center at the historic Mahaiwe Theatre in Great Barrington, Massachusetts.
