Boston -- Classic or Dirty Water?

very true - it's p much the best

hey i just realized this will be the second time that CAD, JC and I will be in the same room only this time we'll know it!

maybe we can book japandroids for the day

w love to kiw them tbh - so cute!

yeah they seem like bros

tell me some good outdoor drinking places in boston, since there were zero when i lived there.

hmmmmm

tbh there aren't that many! First that comes to mind is Charlies Kitchen in Harvard Square which put in a huge beer garden a couple years ago. I haven't actually been there tho because I used to work there and it sort of weirds me out now. Hmmmm where else?

most places with outdoor seating make you eat food due to stupid zoning laws, so I don't think anyplace in the municipality of Boston has this unless it's like in a fully-enclosed area away from the street

ah see out here we have a few beer gardens. the dive comes to mind as one of the best.

and also my back yard...which a few years ago a buddy and I made a corner of my yard into a beer garden complete with lights. last year I added some polk audio outdoor speakers...its about as close to heaven as i can get. all i need now is a recliner.

OK so what time were you all thinking?

Also, what about Tavern at the End of the World? The place we went to watch the game that time? It's cute and has its own parking lot and should be easy for everyone to get to provided there aren't any parades in Somerville that day.

that would work for me. someone could even pick markers up in sullivan square if he wanted to t it. he is still coming right?

Yep, think so. He is "taking a break from ILX" so asked me to msg him on FB. I'll do that once we agree on a place. I have to pass Sullivan Square on the way there so am more than happy to pick him up. He might drive tho - he did last time.

sometimes, i wish my inlaws would stay home.

give me a time, I will drop by

guys i hate boston

i know somerville decently, or at least did ~5 yrs ago, so im cool w/ that

It's technically in Charlestown but really close to Somerville. Should be pretty easy to get to. Address on the website.

What time works for you guys? I can do whenever.

I love boston and loved it even more when I spent 7 years there. Miss it. Well mainly I miss being able to walk out my front door into a bar.

Man, I just read through some of the first part of this thread. People really hate Boston! I got all defensive and was going to post a big thing about why I don't hate it anymore and why a lot of the stuff said here is wrong but I don't have the energy. It's OK Boston, I still love you.

so many butthurt ppl up there

lol i know

well i'll be in town april 23rd for the mogwai show at paradise if anyone wants to meet up before hand.

"Foreplay / Long Time" is Classic.

Right so what time?

JC and DP you're the ones coming from far away/w commitments the following day - would 4pm be OK?

fine with me

I just realized I will likely have to pace/lightweight it because I'm not just singing, I'm singing in a solo quartet (oops) so maybe you all have been saved from Jaegerbombs

cool by me. whatever time yall decide ill prob get there a lil later tho it all depends what time i leave ct

yeah 4 is good

lol dan that's a relief tbh

i am pleased to be able to confirm my participation in said event at said hour on said day at said location.

Have fun fuckos!

when everyone was introducing themselves, and then giving their board display name, I kept having flashbacks to that SNL key party skit

http://www.hulu.com/watch/1503/saturday-night-live-key-party

omg that was great

so awkward and uncomfortable but, I mean, unless we resort to name tags it was p necessary
