It's true.

joemaconmovies - 6-9-2008 at 11:25 AM

death & taxes would be a good reason to go if it weren't for those damn causalities. who do you work merch for, furly?

Furly - 6-9-2008 at 11:29 AM

D&T and usually (but not always) the Unloved.

joemaconmovies - 6-9-2008 at 11:36 AM

I don't remember it, but I'm going to guess yeah.

I know (I think) I've never actually met you, but I'm sure I've seen you at a show or something.

Mark Lind - 6-9-2008 at 01:02 PM

Furly, are you coming Thursday?

Furly - 6-9-2008 at 01:32 PM

yep, and I'm hoping you get the CDs before then.

FNSRecords - 6-9-2008 at 04:11 PM

I find, now that I;ve moved away from Boston..most of my stops while back in Boston revolve around food.

- Fruit and Cheese plate@ The Otherside Cafe
- Spikes
- Dunkin Donuts
- Bodega Florentina (Brookline) ..best Italian food in the city.
- Grasshopper (allston) Cold Peanut noodles
- Veggie PLanet (Harvard Square) Mac and Cheese with Romesco Sauce...
- Wing It
- Any pizza place....pizza sucks in LA.

....food sucks in LA.

I used to take the bus to Providence to goto the original Spikes on Thayer street when I was like 14-15 and now they are all over RI and even in Boston..... Oh how they have grown!
