Hey Boston People (and those familiar with boston)- I'm heading to your town for a few days around New Years with my crew of crazy ass biznotches and need some guidance. Any advice on what to do, where to go, sights, events, concerts etc? They all want to head to Southie for NYE. This crew likes to rage. Gangsta style. Dive Bar Style. Rock out style. Not so much super fancy style. A little bit fancy can be okay. Any help and recommendations would be appreciated, Southie or not. ...One thing is we need to avoid Back Bay and Cambridge areas. Thanks in advance for your suggestions!! :D

    Watch out for the Townies.

    thanks Joe! :lol:

    We are a crew that likes Townies. :D Our host, and my best friend, works on fishing boats and will be the only female at sea for weeks at a time. She is a surly, swearing, hardcore "wicked" baller. I work in the jail and negotiate payments plans with crack dealers for my clients. Just to a paint a picture of the type of biznotches I'm talking about. :lol:

    Hey RYE, Wu-Tang is playing in the Theater District on NYE. Gonna be a lot of gangstas down there.

    There's so much to do here. Might be selling yourselves short going to Southie. Not really a great NYE spot.

    I really don't want to disclose this place but it is a special night so here you go. When in Boston hop on I 90 and head west. Take Exit 9 which will be I 84W. Stay on that road for a bit and then follow the signs for I 95. Take that until you see...

    Oops. Dont kill me RYE. Just checked and its actually Dec 28, not 31. Not sure if this fits the parameters of your trip now. Shit.

    We are a BIG drinking town, especially for NYears, so regardless what you guys do, its gonna be awesome.

    'flip a bitch' is actually called 'bangin' a uuey' there.

    unlost should be along in a bit...I can tell her to give you a jungle too if you like.

    if you find an outboard prop in the water, you may want to drop it off at her house as a holiday gift.

    Stay away from the Italian restaurant with cockroaches as dining companions. Ponc knows where it is...

    I hear Marley's isn't that far away...maybe they're closed for the season, give D-man a ringie.

    Green Circle is out there too...not sure what he can do for you. i'm sure he'll find something to entertain you...
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    Thing is, a lot of places have the deal where you buy a ticket for say 20-100 bucks to keep you at one bar the whole night. Restaurant reservations are tough to come by, but I'd try places in the North End and Back Bay/South End. Really cant go wrong with any of those places. Bars in Copley and Faneuil Hall are great on NYears. There are so many, cant really go wrong there either. I'll come up with some specifics shortly, but I'm certain you guys are gonna love the city regardless.

    If you're looking for small and dive-y, here's my faves:

    Sligo Pub - Davis Square, Somerville
    PJ Ryan's - Teele Square, Somerville
    Cantab Lounge - Central Square, Cambridge
    The Field - Central Square, Cambridge
    Phoenix Landing - Central Square, Cambridge
    The Druid - Inman Square, Cambridge
    Atwood's - Inman Square, Cambridge
    Model Cafe - Allston

    Not sure what any of their deals are for NYE, but whether you're looking to bar-hop or hunker down in one spot, they're all in fairly lively areas.
