Sorry about this week’s double-post! It’s because I’ve changed the website to www.BostonEventsInsider.com, but the old website names still work. Also this week, I’m now auto-posting 30 suggestions a day to the Twitter and Facebook. Please email me at johnny@EVENTSinsider.com and let me know if you like it or think it’s overkill!

The Week in Weird
Fully Committed — Free ticket 7/22 – 8/15 Boston Metro
Boston's Events Insider, by Johnny Monsarrat
The show I attended was rained out, so I still have one ticket for someone to come along to see Fully Committed! From what I did see, there is no equal in outdoor theatre this summer. It’s a comedy where one man plays 37 roles while trying to answer non-stop phone calls at the reservation desk at a fancy retaurant.
Publick Theatre, Boston, MA.

Lowell Folk Festival 7/23 – 7/25 Northern Mass
Boston's Events Insider, by Johnny Monsarrat
The event of the week is the Lowell Folk Festival: the largest free folk festival in the US. I’ve been and it’s surprisingly rich, with a parade on Friday, 6 performance stages, a yo-yo performance, and the ubiquitous “vendors”.
Downtown Lowell, Lowell, MA.978-970-5000.

more
SomerStreets & FossFest 7/25 Boston Metro
Boston's Events Insider, by Johnny Monsarrat
Somerville throws creative events, so this street festival with live music, circus, community drum circle, art vendors, etc. is probably more than it seems.
Broadway from Sullivan Square to Temple St, Somerville, MA.

more
Puerto Rican Festival 7/25 Boston Metro
Now let’s bring it back to Boston. Why do these Franklin Park festivals go undescribed? Can we just have ONE web page? Well, fortunately for you, I’ve been to this festival. They have a traveling carnival with tons of vendors, sort of corny but lots of ethnic pride and happy kids. Rain or shine, but it will be so muddy if it rains, skip it. Free. And they will most likely re-do their Parade on Sunday @ 12pm, from 55 Malcolm X Boulevard, down Columbus Ave, Seaver St, Blue Hill Ave, and into Franklin Park.
Playstead Field, Franklin Park, Boston, MA.866-481-0695 or 617-635-3911 or 617-210-5547.

more

Newport Music Festival 7/9 – 7/25 Rhode Island
