It really depends on the kind of music you're playing. Most of my favorite places, the "man that house really kicked ass" kinda places have shut down. The Middle East Cafe' in Cambridge, MA is still around, it's a fun house to play & they used to feed you a full India spread (hummous, taboli, baba ganoush etc).

Up here in Brattleboro, VT the Common Ground has reopened, I don't know if it'll live up to what it was in it's hey day, but I bet it's still a fun house. And the Weathervane has reopened under new management, again I don't know if it's gonna be as good as it was, but hey it could be better.

Take Care,
Rick
