Good fences make good neighbors . . . right?

A millennial, Latinx couple moves in next door to a white, baby boomer couple in Karen Zacarías’ topical new comedy. After some good-natured ribbing over gardening styles–traditional designs versus the eco-friendlier native plants–the couples find themselves at odds over an unexpected property line dispute. A dispute that explodes into a host of verbal jabs and blows over race, culture, privilege, and the meaning of neighborly behavior.

Crazy Train - The Ozzy Experience
2023-03-11 20:00 - 23:00 (America/New_York) | 97 University Ave, Lowell, MA, 01854, United States
“Crazy Train™ is THE Ultimate Ozzy Osbourne Tribute band. Hosted by Vinny Cormier, the best Ozzy impersonator you can get, and supported by a band full of Berklee drop-outs to deliver a captivating show unlike no other musically and visually. The show has a few Special Effects you won’t want to miss! We play every show like it is LIVE AND LOUD 1993! We play all of the Prince Of Darkness’ noteworthy hits anywhere from Sabbath to Patient #9.
Crazy Train is one of the very best rock tribute shows I’ve seen. The band delivers an endlessly entertaining show focused on honoring Ozzy’s timeless catalog with a staggering dedication to detail.
Vinny Cormier’s performance as Ozzy is simply a must-see for reasons that go beyond the visuals. Yes, he looks eerily similar to the great man, and he’s mastered all of the mannerisms, but his greatest weapon is his voice. With this band, Cormier sings and performs like Osbourne at the peak of his power.
Guitarist Dylan Cormier must have spent 10,000 studying and practicing this material. One of New England’s most technically proficient axe-men, Cormier makes it look effortless as he attacks material from every era of Ozzy’s career with extraordinary accuracy, confidence and panache.
Bassist Craig Goodall and drummer Mike Caliandro make for an explosive rhythm section that powers Crazy Train with lethal precision. Their dedication to keeping it in the pocket while instilling the music with an unpredictable edge put this show over the top.
The special effects and light show provide an appropriate aura of spookiness to complement one of the very best rock tribute shows on the road today. Add to that the perfect sound mix and a painstaking commitment to detail and you have an unbeatable rock show with Crazy Train.
Mike Dow,
The Maine Edge and BIG 104 FM
