But we know he’s aiming high: In November he told reporters he’d be wrangling “as many guests as I can commit,” seeking to “make it a different kind of concert, almost like a celebration of music and our city and all the good things here.”

Peter Wolf doesn’t discriminate. Last week the former J. Geils Band frontman went down to Foxwoods’ MGM Grand to see Bob Dylan; last year he joined Bruce Springsteen onstage at the TD Banknorth Garden.
