PorchFest got me doing things I never expected, including performing The Clash’s “Should I Stay or Should I Go” this year with the LBK crew at Whitfield. Huge thanks to Emily and Brian for hosting us, and appreciation to the whole band crew for the energy, patience, and good vibes. PorchFest is one of the best reminders of what makes Somerville special, neighbors, music, chaos, community, and a little courage to get on stage.
