anyways...

i think this show is gonna be huge. i was talking to princesscaspian the other day, and i pointed out that i can see Daniel Street becoming the new Porter\'s. great place, epic shows, with the added bonus of a stage and lights.

i can\'t wait.

things missing from Daniel St. that may prevent it from becoming the "new Porters"
1. A parking lot that supports pre/setbreak/post show activities.
2. A solid beer selection.
3. The laid back atmosphere that only a venue stuck way out in Westbrook CT.

But don\'t misinterpret the above statement. I like what I see from Daniel St. And if you put tB in that venue on a Saturday night in the middle of summer, with some solid promotion work behind it, it\'ll be explosive.

there\'s nothing special about the food from Stonebridge.

I have a good feeling about Daniels Street. Since the first time I walked in there, I could feel something in the air. When I saw the GTB a few weeks ago it was confirmed. Daniels Street is a great place to see a show. Sounded great, lights were awesome. Kinda spacious.

BUT,

I also agree that there are a few things missing from the venue that would make it great. However, the Breakfast have never played there before, so we might be in for a surprise and a hostile takeover of downtown Milford.

The show is about the music. Not the raging lot scene or the shady **** that goes on (which I love dearly), it what makes the whole experience. I guess I can settle for the people and the 4-dudes on stage.

stonebridge=overated/overpriced....confirmed
the seven seas....right around the corner is a nice little bar with pretty good food.....sbc is right there also
the lot scene NEEDS to be a bit less obvious in downtown milford.
parking in the train station lot on the other side of the tracks might be an option.

train station lot wouldn\'t be a good idea as it\'s always monitored by police. In fact there really isn\'t a place in the immediate downtown area where the 6up don\'t scout... Personally you could probably get away with more at the biggest lot in Milford: in back of the library (basketball courts, pavillion, bridge, lots of room).....

oldnewbie · « **Reply #54 on:** January 11, 2006, 12:13:09 am »

i agree T/C....i was suggesting that lot for parking....not for partying

Spacey · « **Reply #55 on:** January 11, 2006, 12:23:32 am »

I personally have bagged the idea of any type of lot scene. It just isn\'t safe nor is it worth risking it. I have seen cops circle the place the last few times I been there, I can do without the hassle.

Like I said earlier, if this one show I have to do without, I\'ll try to survive.

Overexjoesure · « **Reply #56 on:** January 11, 2006, 12:56:42 am »

if people need places to park just do it in back of the library, plenty of room, plus a nice quick walk to Daniel Street.

i likt stonebridge\'s food, the lobster bisque is great

The parking does suck. I parked in back of the library and didn\'t have a problem and a lot of people have told me in the past that you can get away with parking in the train station. As I don\'t know Milford at all, I have never been able to find this alleged train station parking lot.
It\'s a really good space. It sounds good and you\'re not all cramped in there shoulder to shoulder sweating on each other.
Have seen a lot of cops driving around in the area, though. Be careful.

there is also Archie Moores for parking and tasty bar food w/ decent prices. If you count all the Coca Cola memorabelia inside I\'ll give you a shiney new penny.
