    Seafood downtown?  I'm wondering if the Oyster House and/or Neptune are the shit or if the locals go elsewhere?

    Oyster House is for tourists.  Neptune is the real deal - though they don't take reservations.  Also, check out Island Creek by Fenway.

    Staying at Copley Square Hotel.....supposedly a 25 minute walk to the venue.
    I'm staying in the exact same area but am not sure whether to walk or take the train back; it probably makes more sense to walk back then catching public transportation.
    I am guessing that public transport will be mobbed since most everyone leaves Fenway at the same time.

    Are there any females that would have a floor/couch for me to possibly crash on? I'm coming in on the first and leaving on the 4th early. I can help with some costs. My social media is very public, so you could get a feel for who I am and what I'm about.

    Super 8 in Watertown, was the cheapest I could find ( about $145 after tax) and there are buses nearby to both Fenway and Cambridge areas.  I used to live around there so I'm looking forward to checking out my old watering holes in the early afternoon before the show.
    Im staying there on Saturday and Sunday night before moving to the Porter square hotel. I'm fine with being a few miles outside of town. We should meet up while we're there!

    Cool!  I'm only staying Tuesday night as I only have tix to night 2, sadly.  But Donahue's and Buff's Pub (wings are pretty good here)  are not far from there if you're looking for some local places that aren't as crowded as Boston proper.  And you'll have fun in Porter.   Eddie once popped up on the stage at a tiny place called the Toad in Porter Square after a Boston show ('06 maybe?). A cool bartender version of the story is here: http://lifeonacocktailnapkin.com/eddie-vedder-in-the-house/
    I'm staying at a very good friend's apartment pretty much right across from the Toad. The place is really small maybe can hold 20 people comfortably. I love the bar because it's across the street and there's live music every night. I heard that the longtime staffers aren't exactly thrilled when Pearl Jam comes to town, because they sometimes get bombarded with phone calls or obnoxious fans that constantly ask the staff if and when Eddie is stopping by. You could imagine....

    I don't think Ed's been there in something like 10 years when he came in and jammed with Theo.

    The Verb Hotel is awesome, but I think it's been sold out for months. The Liberty is another cool place, a bit pricey for some but it's in the West End (which is cool)

    I'm here too.  I stayed there in 2016 and it was an easy walk to Fenway and there's a killer dive bar 200' from the entrance.

    My brother and I stayed there in 16 and will be staying there again. What’s the name of the dive bar?
