Wed. April 18

The Red Sox are up and running. They blew out the competition opening day. This is their year. A return to 2004. What reason might you have to go see sports at the TD Banknorth Garden? Well, they're becoming slimmer and slimmer as the two teams that labor there, the Celtics and Bruins, are in freefall. The Celtics have been adding bells and whistles to their program, and on Wednesday April 18, they present, as post-game entertainment, the alt-rock band Augustana. This means you can pay as low a price as $10 (to sit in the Brooks Family Pharmacy section) to watch the Celtics and Pistons do what they do - play for individual stats, we'd guess - and then hear Augustana play a set that will include their song, "Boston." Starts at 7:30 p.m.
