Two Things to Do Tonight

Good morning everyone! Hope everyone had a lovely 4th weekend - did you see that sun? We definitely all deserved it.

Anyhoo, to get you back into the swing of things - check out the new Laser Guitar Hero show at the Museum of Science and Ole's Taco Loco Mondays.

Laser Guitar Hero is the new laser show at the Planetarium and features the music of Weezer, Kaiser Chiefs, Bloc Party and the Foo Fighters just to name a few. First show is at 5:30 and costs $9 for adults, $8 for seniors and $7 for children. Click here for more information.

And now for the food fun - Ole Mexican Grill in Inman Square has been hosting a Taco Loco Monday deal - choose from 15 minis, including shredded pork, shrimp, beef crap and one with duck mole. Hmm....mole. Tacos run from $3.50-$5.50 each. Ole is located at 11 Springfield Street in Cambridge. Click here for more on Ole.
