Since it looks like I'm going to try to do both Cock Sparrer shows, I might as well plan a longer vacation around it. I'd probably try to spend a few days in each city.

Here's what I know of so far:

5/18 - Cock Sparrer in Philly
5/18 - Dirty Water reunion in Boston
5/19 - Cock Sparrer in Boston
5/19 - BnB Superbowl of Hardcore in NYC
5/19 - (Rumored) The Adicts in Philly
5/20 - Rancid w/ Razors in the Night in Boston
5/21 - (Rumored) Rancid w/ Ducky Boys and Madball in Boston

Anything else going on around those days? I'll probably annoy you guys with advice on places to stay once I get a better idea what I'm doing.

Hahaha... it's already TOO MANY choices. But I'm leaning towards flying into Philly for a few days, then up to Boston for the Cock Sparrer and Rancid shows - and maybe a few extra days - and then to NYC to visit some friends. One person already is trying to convince to go to Vegas for Punk Rock Bowling the next weekend. :)

Just trying to pack as much awesomeness as possible into one trip!

Is the second Rancid show happening, this is the first I have heard of it. Might have to go to the second show instead.

There was a comment on one of the Facebook pages for the Cock Sparrer show about a second Rancid show with Ducky Boys and Madball opening.

After I saw that, Mark put this in his last Ducky Boys update email:

This event kicks off a spectacular weekend of punk rock in Boston. If you've ever thought about visiting Boston and seeing the sights then this is the weekend to do it! Look at this:

5/18 - Dirty Water reunion show at TT the Bears
5/19 - Cocksparrer at Club Lido
5/20 - Rancid at the HOB with Razors in the Night and Tenebrae
5/21 - Rancid at the HOB night #2 with details coming soon


But, as far as I know, nothing official has been announced.

It's possible that the second Rancid show may not happen. From what I understand tickets have sold well on the first night. Exceptionally well. Their agent asked us to play the second night. It has yet to be announced. I would guess that if it's to happen then it's going to be announced this week or next.
