BOSTON CALLING 2018: ST. VINCENT, PUSSY RIOT, JACK WHITE & MORE

Over Memorial Day weekend, Harvard Stadium served as the adventurous backdrop for the 9th edition of Boston Calling. Over the course of three days, festival goers were treated to performances from artists including The Killers, Paramore, Pussy Riot, Jack White and The National. Brockhampton gave an emotional performance after the departure of founding member Ameer Vann (he was recently accused by multiple women of sexual misconduct), while Eminem teased onlookers about his rumored relationship with rapper Nicki Minaj. Boston Calling has continuously yielded stellar lineups since its 2013 inception, and it keeps getting better every year. Check out the most memorable moments from this year’s bash below, and don’t miss our guide to the summer’s best music festivals.
