    Yeah its 35-40 miles south of Boston, just off of I-95/I-495.
    Traffic can blow getting in & out, figure minmium hour drive from Boston after 3PM, longer later into rush hour.
    This weekend we rock Portland

    Bank on an hour. Don't be surprised if it takes you longer. Be pleasantly surprised if it takes you less...

    The commuter rail shuts down relatively early, so I would not suggest this to people that want to stay for the show.

    Anyone interested in getting a carpool/designated driver thing sorted out? There are tons of us in the City.

    In the end I'll probably rent a car, but it would be sweet to meet some folks and share expense. (Plus I am sure ity would be greener and the guys would like that)

    I could be down with that; we will be staying with a friend in Brookline and I don't drink so I could drive a couple extra peeps.
