Where are the New England Peeps?

[Booboobear84]

I stand corrected. Thanks. Never spent much time below Portland other than driving by coming back or going on vacation. Maine is a great place to live, visit, or play whether indoors or out

and great dancing

Marginal way is only in Ogunquit at perkins cove

Or Kips in Pawtucket

It looks like Kips closed back in January.

and catching up after a work weekend... ok, breweries! I was up in Brattleboro VT last October and found the delightful Hermit Thrush brewery. Sours are their jam and... let's just say a few cases found their way into the boot of the Mini. And of course, Treehouse. Just... soooooo... good. How's everyone week starting?

Nope, I work half mile away

Hmm…very odd. the news articles and the Google listings show it being closed. I wonder if the owners know about that. Google “Kips Pawtucket “ and you will see what I mean.

I just called the number listed for Kip’s and it’s disconnected.

(401) 726-9882

And Google says that a Chase bank is going in that location.

I find this mini drama over Kips to be quite juicy lol

It keeps the attention away from the “2” Marginal Ways.

This is the Vermont guy reporting in. Still new to New England. I am heading to Boston in a few weeks to see a show. I will be in the Chinatown area (or at least that what Google maps is calling it). Any restaurant recommendations? Open to all cuisines. Microbreweries are a plus.

If you like chicken wings, Crave Chinatown has Korean wings that are amazing. You get to choose your level of hotness, which gets pretty damn hot.

ETA: I don’t suppose you’re going to see They Might Be Giants?

 

[Sojourner47]

I love chicken wings. Perfect! Thank you.

I will be in town a few days before the They Might Be Giants show to see Crowded House. (I know. I am showing my age).

BTW They Might Be Giants puts on a great concert. If you have not seen them, you should definitely go. But it sounds like you know that.

I had no idea Crowded House still toured!! They Might Be Giants are fantastic!

 

[Sojourner47]

Well, they "reunited." Actually, the band is made up of Neil Finn's sons. It is not quite the same.

Yeah, I saw them once in the 90s and am hopefully going to the show in Sept!

My wife and I are seeing Roxy Music in September

Sawr this today. It seems about right…

Hey, how about that much needed rain (and impressive lightening)?

Showing age? I still think of them as Split Enz!

Just started finally here on the south shore!

Wait…hang on: Split Enz became Crowded House?!?

Interesting.

Last time I went by that area it looked like the whole corner was to be replaced by a Chase bank. All the news reports said that the owner had to be out by this past February (2022).
