In a Nutshell

Alt-rockers pump up fans with their hit “Dizz Knee Land” and other psychedelic-tinged power pop; the band’s bluesy side project opens

The Fine Print

It's always great to hear your favorite song live, because you can sing along and see what the notes look like as they float out of the instruments. See the music with this GrouponLive deal to see Dada at the Wilbur Theatre on Sunday, February 17, at 8 p.m. Doors open at 7 p.m. Choose between the following options:

  • For $15, you get one ticket for reserved mezzanine or balcony seating (up to a $29 value, including all fees).

  • For $15 you get one ticket for the standing-room general-admission floor (up to a $29 value, including all fees).

On tour celebrating 20 years as a band, Dada descends upon the Wilbur Theatre with their wry lyrics, Simon & Garfunkel–inspired harmonies, and clean, nimble guitar attack. Affectionately deemed “the Police of the ’90s” by some, the band found success in 1992 after releasing their debut album, Puzzle, a psychedelically influenced record featuring their biggest single, “Dizz Knee Land.” Reaching No. 5 on the Billboard Rock Chart, the dream-inspired anthem also gained the band spots opening for groups such as Crowded House and Depeche Mode. After releasing a follow-up album, the trio disbanded to pursue solo efforts and donate their flannel shirts to charity. Now, on their first tour since 2004, they reunite to play as Dada and 7Horse, a blues project comprising two of Dada’s members.

Wilbur Theatre

A theater on the National Register of Historic Places, the Wilbur Theatre is now a premier venue for comedy and music. When it was built in 1914, the architect Clarence H. Blackall designed its porticos and brick façade with inspiration drawn from American Colonial architecture, characterized by a Federal Revival style that included powdered wigs hanging over every doorway. "The auditorium is in its chaste way," architectural historian Douglas Tucci is quoted as saying on the theater's website, "the handsomest of any Boston playhouse."

The Groupon Guide to: Farm Animals

The act of taking care of farm animals is called “husbandry” because of the old saying “You think taking care of pigs is hard—try taking care of my husband!” Here’s a guide to the animals you can expect to find on your local farm:

Cows: Cows are one of the ugliest animals to look at, but in a national taste test they were found to have the best-tasting milk. Visit a local farm to taste the milk of these horrific beasts for yourself.

Horses: Horses are the supermodels of the animal world. Farmers will spend hours at a time grooming and complimenting a prized horse, just to see a flash of its big, toothy smile.

Pigs: Don’t even get a farmer talking about these fun lovers. Pigs are the party animals of the barnyard, and if you don’t believe it, just hold a yummy treat above their snouts and watch them dance!

Dog: Every barnyard has to have a dog. A dog is a farmer’s best friend and will stand by him through everything, even during the farmer’s loneliest days, when he realizes that in cultivating his farm he has lost sight of that which he should have been cultivating most—relationships with humans.

In a national taste test one farm animal was found to have the best-tasting milk—you’ll be surprised by the ugly answer!
