Just doing some quick google searching while at work
How is the Atlantic Beer Garden?
Whiskey Priest doesn't seem that far away, but I'll trust those that have been there and made the walk. I remember thinking how bad the walk would be at the Ed show this summer from the Beantown Pub to the Wang, but it wasn't bad at all. How long a walk are we talking? I like to get nice and buzz, and maybe enjoy a J on the walk in. But, again, I'll trust the locals. :thumbup:0 -

Whiskey Priest actually only like 1/2 a mile... 0.6 to be exact. (according to google directions) its a straight shot. All basically on same Road...Seaport Blvd/Northern Ave. Slightly longer walk than it was from the EV preparty in RI at Trinity Brew Pub to PPAC.
I like your thoughts on the J walk tho When I was at BOA for A Perfect Circle last month, it wasnt so easy to get a J off inside. We had to steal someone else's seats in the middle of the section cuz mine were on the aisle...and they dont allow smoking in the venue at all.

No smoking at an outdoor venue? Weird. I'm not a full time smoker, but I like to enjoy a couple with a buzz, and especially when there is some great live music playing. Not worth getting booted out though, that's for sure.0 -

What's up Fenway and Twisted!?!? It's been a while since I've really posted anything. Just been reading the boards lately. Still very upset that I can't make PJ20...
The update is, I will be in Boston on August 14th for the MMJ show!!! There was no way in hell I was going to miss out on another chance at seeing these guys live! I will be staying at the Seaport Hotel in Boston that night and plan on getting there early on Sunday. Would LOVE to finally meet you all!
Nice!!! Im staying at The Seaport too...we'll plan to meet up for sure!!
Have you stayed at the seaport before? I'm curious to see how it is. Seems like a classy joint and is really close to the venue. I plan on getting a good buzz going to rock the fuck out!!

Yah...I stayed there last month for APC. Really nice place. Didnt actually get to experience any of their restaurants on site, or the pool (which claims to have underwater speakers
) but the rooms were nice and clean, flat screen tv's, mini fridge. One thing that caught me by surprise tho, was that they have NO VENDING MACHINES in the building...but there is a 24hr 7-Eleven across the street...so you may want to bring your own beverages and late night munchies. Also...they probably didnt tell you this (they didnt tell me when I made my reservation) that its $33 for overnight parking in their garage (which is pretty much the norm for Boston I guess). Also...the GPS didnt bring us right to the front entrance....it stopped right before the street corner...you actually have to go down that street (take a right down the street right after the GPS says you arrived) and the hotel main entrance is on your right. You'll see people parked there to check in and the valet guys outside (I had walked by the place a bunch of times in the past, so I had an idea of where I needed to be...) Also...they have a "no tipping" policy b/c all gratuities are included w/ the price of the room...so say hell yes to the door man taking your stuff up to your room!!
And bring the vaporizer...its a non smoking hotel

Very helpful tips, thanks!! Seems like quite a lovely hotel. We plan on getting there pretty early on Sunday to walk around Boston a bit. Not sure how easy it will be to get to the main part of Boston but I'm sure we will make it work.

It's not bad from the seaport area. Short cab ride, depending where you're looking to go. Hopefully its a nice day and you guys can walk thru the Gardens and the Common.Drop1The0Leash wrote:We plan on getting there pretty early on Sunday to walk around Boston a bit.
