Best Wishes for Boston

Best Wishes for Boston

“Hey! Hey!”

I was walking down State Street on Tuesday when I heard a local, standing on a stoop taking a cigarette break, shouting at a man in a Boston Marathon jacket. The runner paused, confused – locals don’t usually call out at tourists unless something’s wrong.

“Did you run, man?” said the local.

“Yep.”

“God bless you, man,” said the local, with emotion in his voice.

This could have happened any year. The Marathon is a big deal in Boston, and many people have a lot of respect for the athletes who run it. But this conversation happened this year, and it was clear from the tone the local was thinking of the explosions, and showing support.

Boston feels like a family right now.

We will be going on with the concert at Regattabar tonight as planned. We hope to see you there, but more importantly, we hope that you and yours are safe and well.
