There's lotsa college kids, red sox cap wearing douchebags, yuppies and over priced drugs. Good trash diving around the prudential center. Very confusing street layout, I've been many times over my life and still find it confusing. Be prepared to see more house punks than you've ever seen. Good shows ocassionally but they're normally gonna cost you. Wish I could be more helpful but its been a while.
Lucy Parsons Bookshop in the south end is all I can think of that's any use. I've lived here a few years and I really can't say there's anything too great about this city unless you're a sports fanatic. There're plenty of restaurants but everything's overpriced, and the people love talking politics A LOT.
That does it for Boston
