The suburbs are depressing , I want to be close to where shit is going on, Pawtucket is where it's at. I work in a dive bar in the bucket and they try to convince me it's scary and and bad and I'm like, have you ever gone outside of RI? Have you ever worked or lived in the tenderloin or mission of SF or traveled the less than first world countries? GTFO with that, it's idyllic in comparison. Love poorbucket.

I feel like I've explored this option and it always comes back to having plenty of transit options to get to the show in Cambridge but having extremely limited options past midnight or whenever the show lets out. I'm coming from south county so getting to providence is half the trip. It's very frustrating after living in SF where it was a short bus ride to see any show. Honestly it feels easier to take the NYC overnight trip from Kingston station but I'm not made of money and if I was I'd still be in Cali.

One reason why I came back from San Francisco is because I didn't want to live with roommates anymore. Now I still can't afford my own place but I have shitty weather, less social safety net and I have to drive 3 hours to go to Boston or take an overnight amtrak trip to NYC to see my favorite bands play.
