About:Mainly a venue for rock 'n' roll acts, Paradise Rock Club draws a partying crowd in their late 20s and early 30s. If you do not want to dance, comfortable couches upstairs allow pleasant observation of all the goings-on downstairs. One of the best places in Boston to see live music, the club hosts pop, alternative and better-known local acts almost nightly. Prominent acts who have made appearances include Bare Naked Ladies, Flaming Lips, the Wallflowers, Goo Goo Dolls, and Jack Johnson.

    Awesome place to see the next big thing!: This is THE premier place to see live music in Boston. The club is small enough to be intimate, but large enough to not feel cramped. The ticket prices are usually $20 or less, and the drinks aren't overly expensive either. Grab a bite to eat in the front room before the concert (I recommend the personal pizza...yum!), or stay there to catch some good under-the-radar bands.
    If your hesitant about the bands that play there, let me give you this little history lesson. U2 and Sting played their FIRST U.S. shows there. You'd be lucky now to be able to get a ticket for their Garden shows!
    If you've seen shows in the Avalon and Orpheum, your next stop should be The Paradise! Its an experience worth the trip on the green line!

    best feeling.....: Starring at the walls of The Paradise Rock Club makes me feel like a part of Music History, Knowing anyone from U2, to Marley to Yoko Ono played there.
    Besides the Location is so home to Boston. Great service with a smile.
    Just a short walk down the picture filled hallway, you turn right, and enter the Paradise Lounge, where you can sit back watch an amazing local act, and enjoy a Tastey Pizza at a super price....over all the paradise has a warm Bostom welcome, and you'll never know who you will bump int while there......you will just have to go and see for yourself.

    Lots of perspective.: There are a lot of nooks and crannies to explore before finding just the right vantage point for watching a great band perform at a great venue.
