I think that a few good things have come out of the closure of these venues
1) armageddon ann has been going to a TON more shows
2) a 4x increase in the number of awesome shows at the AS220
3) bands like TNC and throne of hate have been playing out in boston
4) more "unity" between mass/ri bands

it just seems like people don't have to worry as much any more about getting 400 kids into the met cafe to have a show. now, if 50-80 people show up to a AS220 show, it's a success.

I think this has shifted the focus of a lot of bands from just staying and playing in RI to branch into playing in worcester, boston, and NH.

yes, I miss the BoK shows.. pink rabbit.. etc.. but I see the increase of people going to Not Common shows in boston, club marque shows in worcester and the slow increase of awesome DIY shows in RI with more bands from boston playing there.
just my $.02
