| ____________________________________ [Apr 8,2008 1:25pm - Sacreligion ""] ralph's is good for metal shows, but i like the lucky dog because they have a lot of weird shows that are a really good time(cover bands, themed nights, etc.) the qvcc is really cool as well, providing that the proper sound system is used. i'll agree with lupo's for national shows. |
| ______________________________ [Apr 8,2008 1:46pm - aril ""] the company i work for writes the insurance for Lupo's. nobody submit a claim against it, please... there was one with some girl at an Avenged Sevenfold concert that was ridiculous |

| ___________________________________ [Apr 8,2008 1:48pm - Kinslayer ""] mine was Lupos and the Met when it was the old Lupos and the Met...BIG awesome shows that you massholes were stuck seeing at the Palladium would go through there and were 100 times better because it was smaller and so much more personal. |
| _____________________________________ [Apr 8,2008 2:11pm - shatteredliz ""] quintessence said:The Chance in Poughkeepsie NY. OOOOH! I totally agree. |

| ________________________________________ [Apr 10,2008 2:08pm - NippleViolater ""] I probably have the most fun at The Brickhouse these days. The Kave in Bucksport, ME: The owner is this older lady who gets bands beers, cooks them pot-brownies, and has a comfortable place to stay right at the venue. The Lit Lounge in NYC is crazy And of course the classics: Exit 23 (rip), Middle East, The Rat (rip), The Space (rip), O'Brien's, Great Scott, Zoots (rip)-used to be in Portland, ME and was the sickest place evah!! Lupos, Babyhead (rip), AS220, The Penny Arcade in Rochestor, NY was awesome, and OH GOD, Safe and Sound (rip) in Rochestor, NH was the shiz-night!! |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 10,2008 3:27pm - contagion ""] i like places with no sound systems so you end up singing through a 50 watt karaoke amp and mic nothing. |
| _____________________________________ [Apr 10,2008 4:51pm - ouchdrummer ""] the artist alliance.. AKA THE SPACE in worchester. right off of 122a i believe. does anyone remember this place, it was the shit. I saw so many good bands there. |
