I won’t give you the entire rundown of this event since that has already been done, but suffice it to say that Phil Kline’s rapidly spreading holiday boombox parade (this version in Baltimore organized by Brian Sacawa) is the most holiday fun I’ve had in ages! Honestly, how many Nutcrackers or Messiahs can a girl attend, anyway?? This is the way to celebrate Solstice, people.

Favorite moments:

  • being enveloped in a gamelan of bell sounds from boomboxes on all sides
  • the quizzical, smiling expressions on people’s faces as we marched up Charles Street
  • passing this sort of thing on the street that makes me love Baltimore:
