Lmao thought the same thing. I think my homie Phil is doing a show in his basement.

WPD isn’t on the guest list though.

I mean if people are giving out the exact info of places on the down low that’s one thing, but a place like the firehouse literally has a website and social media accounts.

If a place can keep the music in the basement noise won't be a major issue. Where you get problems with the neighbors is when the attendees park willy nilly all over the nearby streets and irritate them by using up scarce street parking... especially when you block someone's driveway.

There literally isn’t a punk scene anymore though. It’s dead, and this is a valid question

Also you’re are vastly overestimating how much cops actually give a fuck about things that aren’t shoved onto their desk

I get the “fuck the police” thing but this is just stupid IMO

I would imagine the WPD have bigger priorities than house shows.

Reminder that one time a local news reporter went to one of these spaces and interviewed some folks there, only to publish a shitty article about how illegal and commune-like it was...the next thing they knew they had all sorts of authority showing up, had to pull some strings and get legal messes sorted out, and while all of this was unsure and up in the air, folks living there were concerned about not only losing their home but also a strong little community they built from the ground up. Being that things in this city have to be coded and licensed, maybe just shut the fuck up on the internet.

Also ralphs ain't letting in anyone under 21, don't care if you order a water. It's a bar.

Ask a punk or GTFO

I get what ur saying but I’m not a cop lol. I’m 18 :/ And I said it SEEMS like the scene has died down bc the most recent stuff I could find about the firehouse online was from like 2016, and I’ve seen other people talking abt how it’s died down a bit too.

Also the firehouse and other collectives have websites etc, and no one is saying their addresses on Reddit… I was just hoping for some more recent info lol

A long time ago I learned that cops have a phrase for the napping in cars thing. "Cooping." Yes, it's part of the vernacular. Unreal. When you see a squad car parked out of the way in some alley and are like WTF... they're cooping. An actual internal slang word for slacking off. Of course they'd say getting much needed rest. On their shift. Uh huh. Rest on the details maybe guys?

Crazy world.

This is a very public forum and even if you are not a cop, you should practice more caution than this. ...there is plenty of reason it hasn't been updated since 2016. Also, dipshits in this thread posted street names, etc. It happened in boston. There is hardly any basement shows out there anymore and everytime they do set one up, some pig with pretty much the exact same termanology and methods that you are performing here; slides in to reddit and dms trying to find info and location. This is absolutely dangerous and your lack of regard is concerning. ...officer.

Look up “pillowman-pete presents” on fb. He books a lot of Worcester punk shows.
