Reply to verizon FIOS coming to Worcester by ozzgift

Awesome news for Worcester folk. I prefer FIOS to Spectrum and competition is good in this industry. I don't live in Worcester but I'm hoping this means the neighboring towns will get it eventually too.

Anyone know if there is a complete list of towns that are part of the expansion?

Eastcide! I haven't thought about them in years. Actually, decades!

Ugh, I wish I could go to a show like those again. I had a friend who used to be in one of those bands, a few friends but one really close friend, and he his band had a band room in one of those old warehouses on Cambridge Street. Awesome place to hang out, too.

>Also I just remembered, Bean Counter (which may get a high number of WPI students) I believe is open later in the day as well

Even they close earlier than they used to. :(

I'm going to have to take the recommendation and get over to New Tradition. Cappuccino might be my favorite drink aside from...well, it's my favorite, actually.

Been considering pulling some money together and doing something like that. Need to do a lot of research, though...and I think a lot of these places could be really great if they were open later and became hangouts. Like Acoustic Java: perfect place to have a guy with a guitar and a bunch of college-and-up aged people after hours.
