Lana Del Rey in Boston Was Fantastic

Lana House of Blues Boston
I had the privilege of seeing Lana Del Rey in concert last night at the House of Blues (HOB) in Boston. You can tell how excited I was to be there because I missed the Red Sox game that was being played next door at Fenway Park, and I didn’t watch the Bruins playoff hockey game either. I had been looking forward to attending since the Boston concert was announced, and I wasn’t going to miss it.

I don’t know Lana well, but I am a big supporter and fan of her music. I remember when she performed at smaller gigs in NYC, and knowing a couple other musicians who played similar types of gigs for years, I can only imagine how difficult it can be to make it big. Lana sure has made it, and I am happy for her and her family.

When I arrived at Lansdowne Street, there was a huge line of fans down the block and around the corner. The show was long sold out, and a couple of the ushers outside said this type of scene doesn’t happen very often at HOB. People held signs for Lana, t-shirts with Lana’s photo, and posters with Lana’s face. Outside the venue, I ran into members of the Grant family, and it was nice to be able to see them and speak with them. Unfortunately, Lana’s dad (domain investor Rob Grant) was unable to make it to the show.

IMG_4124Lana’s fans seem to adore her, as they sang along every verse with her. Throughout the concert, Lana interacted with her fans, occasionally going off the stage to greet, hug, and sign autographs for them. In fact, as she concluded her concert, she spent 5 minutes thanking and hugging her fans as her band played on the stage in the background. You could tell how much she appreciates the support of her fans. Despite the fact that she has been on tour for a few weeks already, her voice sounded great and the band was exceptional.

I was lucky enough to have a chance to say hi to Lana after the concert and congratulate her on her success. A writer for the Boston Herald was in attendance at the concert, and he gave a rave review (“this girl is something special” and “wow them she did“).

It looks like Lana will be playing at about 9 more concerts on this tour, and if you have a chance to attend, I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.

  1. In the last 60 years America has gone from Elvis to Led Zepplin to Guns and Roses to (Alias) Lan Del Ray, Not that I don’t like Lana, I like maybe a few of her songs, nothing I would pay money to see and miss out on my favorite sport, The point is, what the heck happened to Rock and Roll?

    • I’m a big Sox fan (have a 28 game season ticket package and went to a bunch of games last year including 2 WS games), and I am glad I went to the concert instead of the Sox game. As I was leaving HOB, “Dirty Water” started playing at Fenway, so I knew the Sox pulled it out in extra innings.

  2. Does your wife know about your crush? LOL just kidding Elliot

    She is hot and I definitely have a crush. 🙂

  3. I was at the show and loved it!!! she sounded amazing. I only wished I would’ve gotten to meet her…waited outside for a while after for her to come out but, alas, my feet were about to give up entirely and I had to catch my train.

    that said, any idea why the show was so short? I’m guessing it’s a house of blues thing and not a lana thing, because I’ve only been to one show there before and that one was also short, and no encore. that’s the only thing I would’ve changed about the show: made it twice as long!
