Bleu, P-town, and more. New England Product's week in local rock!

This week, Bleu graced New England Product with his presence. I’ve been a fan of Bleu’s for years, and had the pleasure of performing with his Get Up Choir a while back. Ever since then, I always look forward to his company as well as his performances.

Bleu is in town to properly release his long awaited new album, “A Watched Pot.” The record was nearly completed four years ago, but was held up in red tape. He finally crawled into the belly of the beast and dug it out. You can now purchase it at Newbury Comics here in New England or Amoeba on the West Coast, or of course on the internet.

Bleu will be celebrating the release on Friday at TT’s by getting his old band back together to rock your socks off. Also on the bill are Hooray For Earth, Count Zero, and Air Traffic Controller.

Here’s what else there is to do in the Boston area this weekend.
