Hope y'all don't mind if a couple of us just show up for drinks...I don't know any of you and mostly only post when there's a tour or CD in the works...But it would be good to drink amongst fellow fans!

I will be there for the Boston Meet-Up; hopefully we'll be bringing a RUSH newbie and her already Rush-ian boyfriend and Rush friends.

LOL Who knows?!

I'm doing my best to get them integrated into the "TRF Family!"

I want to meet everyone; but I am NOT riding that monstrous creature into the depths of hell (AKA BOSTON) by myself. http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/unsure.gif

Can anyone guess what 2 of my biggest "fears" are? LOL

Well, we can always meet you at North Station and ride down together if they don't want to come down to the Black Rose...don't worry, I'll be there to hold your hand. It's a VERY short ride, though - only 2 minutes.

That could just be right. Where can I get some more information about Boston. What (not) to do, clean priceworthy hotels or motels, car rent, or not to rent and take the bus? Could I pm you on this? Thx!!

I'm not very much "up" on the best places to stay IN Boston. I would honestly suggest staying just outside, to the North of the city, in maybe Everett, Malden, Melrose, Medford. It will be less expensive and the neighborhoods aren't as dicey. Traveling to Boston from where you're staying, I'm a big advocate of the train system (the MBTA Subway), and getting off in North Station. But that's really up to you. You can ride in-town on the Red and Orange Lines respectively from those aforementioned cities. Driving wise, Boston is easily accessible via Routes 1 and 93 from the North, but Parking is expensive (at least $25 in the more secure lots) and driving in Boston isn't one of my favorite things to do.

I stayed at the Hilton in the financial district, and I liked it. Work paid for it, so I don't remember how much it is. It's right off State Street; about 4 blocks from the meetup before the show.

As for renting a car, how long will you be there and how much do you want to do? If just the show, take a quick cab from the airport. If you're staying for a few days, a car might be nice to have, but driving in Boston can suck. I don't know about the bus in Boston, but I know the T (train) is a fairly good way to get around.

Thanks for all the info. In at the 12th, out on the 15th. The Hilton is $370 a night, I won't bother when my boss payed for it http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/laugh.gif. When public services are ok, I wont bother on renting a car. I guess there is a lot to see, which is all in walking distance, or indeed train/metro. Thanks again.

You saw them in The Netherlands, that's cool. So we've been in the same concert hall before. When did you see them here?

You should try a Westmalle Tripel 9,5% Belgium Trappist (Cistercian). A couple of those, and............. lights out http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/trink38.gif

 

BTW, you can expect a PM.
