Hey guys,
Wondering of some of you Western Mass locals can suggest a 300-500 capacity arena for the old party-punk band Murphy's Law.
They had a February 7th show fall through at Pearl Street, but still want to play the area.
I, for one, will make the trip from Waltham, to see these guys.
Any help would be appreciated.
Your Favorite Punk Rock Cheerleader,
Rick

Wow, Jenn, yer getting old like me.
It was Katina's (no "r"). Saw a lot of good bands there, too bad for the Umass crowd it's gone!

I used to go to hardcore shows in a huge gym in Auburn. Unfortunately I can't remember the name. It definately had the capacity you're looking for.

argh! I guess Auburn is around 50 minutes from Holyoke so maybe it's not ideal.

Googled western mass hardcore and found this location. no idea on capacity.

All the taquitos and heineken you could eat and drink (I don't like either one that much).
