BOSTON RESIDENCY SHOWS

Anyone going to these? From the reviews, it sounds as though there won't be any box sets left for sale the second night. Anybody going feel like grabbing an extra and meeting up the second night?

Box seats @ The Paradise? Didn't know there were any, always GA when I've been there. I've got an extra ticket for both nights if anyone is looking.

I love the Paradise. It was a great venue. Maybe someday I can catch another Melvins show there.

I filmed from the balcony when I was there. I don't seem to recall there being any problems. Try to get in early and get a good spot next to the wall up top. It's a great view.

they've modified the club since the last show...took out the mezzanine 'booths' cleared out the bar to your left as you entered the main room, and now it's all open space beneath the balcony. they also shifted the stage towards the Comm Ave side of the building, so the support pole isn't directly in front of the stage. they're still there and couldn't be removed, but they are off at angles relative to the stage now.

Nice!.. Yeah, I remember when they played with Isis, there was stuff posted about them closing for renovations. I'll be going to the NY shows this time. Mainly cause of what days of the week the shows fall on.
