The Vans Warped Tour is at GW today and last year's version of this show triggered a mass casualty event due to a large number of patrons drinking and getting dehydrated on a day very much like this one. It is a safe bet that the officials in Mansfield are watching today's event very closely as there as already been a mass casualty event at GW earlier this year.
Let's hope that no one gets hurt or sick today and that we can keep having our annual Buffett show at GW
Actually, the concert is tomorrow night. I knew it was too quiet in town & on twitter for it to be today

Hey peeps! The keet (Mackenzie) and her two girlfriends are desperately searching for lawn tix....or anything with a lawn tix price for the show. If anyone can help find those or know of someone who no longer can go....they're poor grad school students, it would be much appreciated. If you spot a drop in tix prices on TM please let me know. Usually the price drop will occur about now.
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Pinot Noir in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO"

Like always, I've waited to the last minute. Definitely coming, which means I need a ticket and a place to sleep Saturday night.
Take me for what I am, a star newly emerging.
I accept the new found man, and I set the twilight reeling.

Re: Who's going to Great Woods August 15th 2015?
So, for those who live in MA, I have an alcohol question. Can you buy beer and / or liquor in a grocery store (like Shaw's) or do you need to purchase it in a liquor (or beverage) store? Also, are there restrictions like you can't buy before a certain time of day?

There is a liquor store adjacent to the Shaws, in the same parking lot.Fineas wrote:So, for those who live in MA, I have an alcohol question.

Is beer sold in Shaw's or the liquor store?lime rickie wrote:There is a liquor store adjacent to the Shaws, in the same parking lot.Fineas wrote:So, for those who live in MA, I have an alcohol question.

Cork's is closing, not sure it will be open in August. Wines & More isn't too far away on School Street & they open at 9 on Saturdays. Dubs's (yes, that's how they spell it) opens at 8 on Saturday mornings & they have a very good selection of beers & spirits. They are on Chauncy Street (106) just down from the train station and not too far from Red Roof Inn.gunthermoose wrote:The liquor store next to shaws.... (corks)

I don't usually shop in Shaw's so I cannot tell you if they have liquor. I do know Stop & Shop doesn't and Roche Brothers, down the street from Xfinity in Norton, does.

Re: Who's going to Great Woods August 15th 2015?
Yeah, they sold their liquor license to a store opening elsewhere in town. Dubs's and Wines & More have lots of beers, ciders and other malt type drinks cold in the coolers. Sometimes they even have those premade drinks cold at Dubs's.lime rickie wrote:Cork's is closing?!Narnce wrote:Cork's is closing, not sure it will be open in August.
