Yeah - I remember reading that too. But this was back in September and it seems like ME is still going strong. Doesn't necessarily mean it will go on forever like that, of course...I'd hate for this city to lose another small venue. Losses are deep enough already as it is.

Reply to Good cozy study spaces? by Akahaasu
Why not look at MIT itself? There are a lot of nice study spots there. My favorite was a conference room on the top floor of the green building. Otherwise, I would just use empty classrooms.

There’s actually a huge hardcore show tomorrow at 3 but it’s sold out.

Charlie’s still has shows on Mondays. Sonia has punk shows from time to time. Best bet is probably O’Brien’s or the Elks. There was a killer hardcore show at the Democracy Center last weekend but it’s not a regular thing. Also basement shows still happen but you need to ask a punk directly (you won’t see it posted online).

cantab lounge, obriens, lizard lounge, crystal ballroom, the middle east, the lilypad, are all some local venues that might have what you’re looking for

My friends play at Hardcore Stadium (Central Square) a bunch. I think it’s an elks lodge.

Super lame. I wish people with money invested into smaller/mid-sized venues instead of hotels and luxury apartments.
Alas...

The same rich family the currently own it, in conversations with the city to build a hotel and keep the music venues at the bottom, lame imho

No signs of ME shutting down...yet. Saw a bunch of shows there just last month.

That's what I heard few months ago - that a rich family was planning to build a hotel with stages to replace ME. So far nothing seem to came out of those plans.

If you up for a wee drive, Hotel Vernon and Ralph's in Woo always have something going on.

Is Democracy Center still going? Every time I pass by that place it looks like no one is there anymore. They used to host Boston Hassle meetups.
