MOSSE the band is back – tonight at Short & Main
Joey,
GoodMorningGloucester readers know all about the band MOSSE from this GMG exclusive story when they played at Minglewood Tavern. (You’ll recall the post led to a great back-and-forth in the Comments about our Kim Smith’s husband Tom Hauck, who used to be a cool-as-ice rock star in the band The Atlantics — go back and check out the video.)
Tonight MOSSE is back for their last show until the fall. They’ll be playing at Short & Main on Main Street in Gloucester at 9 p.m. No cover. See you there!

You have to try this…
Alchemy just introduced a new menu, with plenty of delicious summery items like the Scallop Crudo and First Pick Strawberry Salad, but the dish we can’t get enough of is the Potato Croquette.
It’s like arancini meets mozzarella stick meets potato, but its somehow surprising light. Trust us, you just need to try it.

Do the Hula
If you ask my boys, Summer = Lobsters + Shaved Ice
“Shaved Ice?” you may ask. Fair enough. If you haven’t had one recently you are missing out. I don’t care how old you are! My boys are addicted to Hula Moon’s shaved ice…and, I can’t lie, while I usually stand outside on the street corner with the dog while they run in with little fists full of one dollar bills, sometimes I get one too. Hard to resist!
And, while I honestly can’t tell you yet first hand, I’ve heard that many items on their actual menu are pretty delicious too….and they have a fantastic view out their back window.
Hula Moon can be found at 27 Mt. Pleasant Street in Rockport. Stop on by, for sure!

Uhmmm There’s Zero Reason For You Not To Get Thirty Days Of Free Amazon Prime Video and Binge Watch My Favorite Show Of All Time…
INSTEAD OF WASTING MONEY ON REDBOX OR RENTING FROM CABLE
TAKE ADVANTAGE OF AMAZON PRIME VIDEO FREE FOR 30 DAYS
Just got a notice that Amazon Prime Video (which let’s be honest if you’re still paying for full blown cable you’re a dinosaur) is giving away free 30 day trials of it’s service.
Which means you can watch Kenny MFing Powers in all his glory on East Bound and Down. All Four Hilarious Seasons!!!
Not to mention about a bazillion other shows. There is zero and I mean zero reason not to take up this free offer (and just another reason people need to be cutting the cord and ditching cable and home phone services)

BTW, Read this from Gizmodo if you weren’t already convinced to take advantage of the offer-
Today the FCC voted to “effectively allow cable companies to charge whatever they like for all broadcast TV” — which is a shitty move. Most things about cable companies, the most hated of industries in terms of customer satisfaction, are terrible. Have you cut your cord or are you still wired in?
Obscure FCC Regulation Could Make Local TV Channels More ExpensiveOver at Bloomberg, an inside source reports that the FCC has just voted to allow cable companies to …
Read moreIt’s become a cliche — especially in New York City — to roll one’s eyes at a cable box and proclaim, “I don’t even own a television.” I’m guilty of it. The truth is that I miss cable sometimes: the endless variety of channels, live news, the comfort of always having Something On. I miss watching The Daily Show without hassle most of all.
But there are enough options with my Netflix and Amazon Prime subscriptions (this reminds me to cancel Hulu+, which I never use) to keep me distracted. If you have a fast internet connection, you have access to an abundance of streaming media — no Time Warner or Comcast intermediary required.
So why do you still keep your cable? And if you’re cable-free, what does your media setup look like?
Here are some clips from some of the shows you could be watching free on your TV, iPad or Phone Right Now-
My favorite- East Bound and Down
The Wolf Of Wall Street
Every Episode of The Sopranos
