Just wondering how full this show was, being it wasn't sold out and was the
last one added.


It was a good crowd, but unlike the next three shows, tickets were still available at the door. Last night was soooo damn cold in Boston that I was personally amazed anyone showed up.

JJ's (East Berkley location) kicks ass.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Shane hanging out with the locals on the corner of Mass Ave and Melnea Cass Blvd.
For those not familiar to Boston the corner is centrally located between a morgue and a methadone clinic.

Man, I didn't know about that Foley's! I only know the one at Downtown Crossing, near the Orpheum. I'll have to check out the other one. Nice call on the Morgue and Methadone clinic!

Tell you the truth, bars hold less and less attraction for me all the time. I used to enjoy the conviviality, the heigthened intelligence, the laughs. But I don't drink alcohol and, increasingly, I am not permitted to have a cigarette. Several bucks for a watery cranberry juice and the invitation to have a cigarette out on the sidewalk in -12 (with wind chill) degrees is not my idea of a great time.

Yeah I definitely can't argue with that, man! I'm on crazy antibiotics right now too, so no drinking for me either.

Well if you're bored tonight, and wanna check out some local comedy, my sketch comedy group has some videos online!

Be careful about ordering cranberry juice in Boston. If Scorsese's to be believed, it always ends in a fight.
