NEW BUSINESSES

In the summer months nearly everyone is prone to want a sweet treat or two, And in most cases people eat too much of candy that is not healthy or nutritious in the slightest.

These days candy of all sorts are filled to the brim with nasty stuff you shouldn’t be eating. finding a healthy alternative is a must, and ‘unreal’ candy does just that! A 15 year old Boston native made a candy line with no artificial ingredients, flavors, hydrogenated oils, and corn syrup. Not only that, but it has around 23% less calories than other brands.

Unreal candy makes a few types of candy, similar to M&Ms, Reeses cups, Snickers and a few others. Unreal candy can be found at local CVS stores, Target, or BJs.

BOSTON RED SOX vs NEW YORK YANKEESA meeting that always get a filled stadium with an euphoric crowd like the Yankees against the Red Sox ended being a predetermined game since the first inning..The Red Sox had many points in their favor that could motivate and lead them to the victory and they did not take advantage of them. Their de-concentration is felt at all times, unlike the Yankees, who put their effort from the beginning achieving 4 runs and 2 homeruns in the first innnig.This was not a good game for the Red Sox but not all is bad they had an amazing crowd. Hours before the game you could feel the emotion of the fans of the Red Sox. They kept their emotion till the last out, singing, dancing, screaming and clapping. The best thing of the game was definitely the crowd supporting their team no matter what and of course the treatment of Fenway Park’s employees

Warped Tour has unveiled a new stage called, “The Acoustic Basement”, which will feature acts such as Anthony Raneri, Kris-topher Roe, Vinnie Caruana, Transit, A Loss For Words, Into It. Over It., Koji, Brian Mar-quis and more.

IIOIChicago, IL solo act Into It. Over It. (Evan Weiss) recently sat down with Punks In Vegas and played two songs acoustically. These stripped down ver-sions of “Embracing Facts” and “Connecticut Steps” are absolutely stunning, but then again, he always sounds this fantastic. These two songs come off of Evan’s 2011 full length Proper, which was easily one of the best albums of 2011.

generally intense atmosphere Warped Tour creates.

TRANSIT October 4, 2011, Transit released their new album, Listen and Forgive. This album’s success came from the way it reached out to a larger audience with it’s heartening and uplifting lyrics. A couple fan favorites are Long Lost Friends, Skipping Stone, and Over Your Head which all branch out to those encoun-tering the sincere sadness of being pushed away, or forgotten. While Transit usually plays in a bold and loud manner during their shows, only during

Warped Tour, you will have the opportunity to see them during the acoustic basement set which will be an incredible chance to disconnect from your troubles and really focus on nothing but the words being said.

At a previous acoustic basement performance, Joe Boynton spoke about everything from tour life to Boston to what he’s studying in school to cats and how much he hates people with the rock star at-titude. He gave amazing advice and told the crowd, “do what makes you happy, because happiness is all that counts and if you’re doing what you love noth-ing else matters.” He was a genuinely sweet and charismatic guy.
