Paradise is too big.
isn\'t there a smaller venue right next to/connected to the paradise? i think i saw u-melt there a couple years ago, so i\'m sure it would be an appropriate size. something tells me it may have closed also...

i think they closed that room.
the new Met Cafe in Pawtucket RI is my choice.
middle east upstairs is perfect for TB...they pack it tight every time and rage hard. No need to look for another venue.

I saw Timmy do a solo show at the \'paradise lounge\' once. too small for a bfast show.
There\'s the Magic Room Gallery I think it holds between 300-400
http://www.magicroomgallery.com/page2.htmlJohnny D\'s is also around 300
http://www.johnnyds.com/North of town there\'s a place the Brew used to play all the time called the Grog, not sure if it may be too small tho, they have a decent sized downstairs
http://www.thegrog.com/My vote goes for the Middle East. Any place with framed Mark Sandman inspired artwork gets an A+ in my book.
magic room is where it\'s at... somehow it isn\'t as known as most, but I have heard nothing but g00dness about it.... definitely got the vib3zzz lol:inky:
I have only been once, but I liked the upstairs at the Mid East. Rock that place out and then move on to the downstairs. Or conquer bigger things. Just keep on playing!
I like Middle East up or down, and whatever Buquebus was saying sounds heady too.

they played downstairs before around the time real radio came out i think. It also was spring break for a lot of schools around here, which definitely hurt the turnout... this then led to many packed and some sold out shows upstairs... a co bill with the indobox would help fill either downstairs, or ::gasp:: even the newly rennovated Paradise.... I\'m still way down with the magic room gallery on word of mouth alone.... either way I got to get out to a show one of these days...:disco:
go see richard james at harpers before it closes. it is my friends band, they are good.

Buzz ShareThis In a surprise move, concert promoter Don Law and his partners are seeking to take over Harpers Ferry nightclub. The 340-capacity Harpers would become a so-called feeder club for the Paradise, which is owned by Law and his partners, Joe Dunne and Declan Mehigan. ?We need a club that is a first step, and we think this would work so acts would then grow into the Paradise,?? says Law. (The newly renovated Paradise now has a capacity of 850.) Up next for Law, who is acting apart from his affiliation with Live Nation: a series of meetings with the Allston Civic Association and Boston Licensing Board. If all goes well, says Dunne, the new club ? tentatively dubbed the Brighton Music Hall ? would open in mid-December. As for renaming an Allston club the Brighton Music Hall, Law says: ?I don?t know if it?s Allston or Brighton, but it?s close enough for rock ?n? roll.??
