Review & Setlist: And when Djo is back in Boston, we feel it Dad jokes, an “Egg” debut, and an intimate night with friends and family on the Back on You tour? Stranger things have happened.

“You’d probably be the first band in history to play a green Egg and Haim.”

One of my favorite moments from Djo’s Boston show was this literal dad joke.

A few weeks ago, Luke Lorraine was on his way to class at the University of Connecticut when he spotted a small rock. In his red Converse sneakers, he kicked the rock over and over again, all the way to class, filming as he went. Lorraine, 22, quickly joined the ranks of other social media stars who track mundane but strangely compelling daily happenings. Sweet pug Noodle (RIP) earned a huge following based on whether he stood up or slumped down in his dog bed each morning. One guy eats a rotisserie chicken every day. Thousands check in on a crab some worried wouldn’t molt in time (she did!). Now Lorraine, a Connecticut native determined to shape a rock into a sphere one kick at a time, has more than 18 million viewers. He’s known on TikTok as @GuyKickingRock.
