Whole lot of comments from people who will slow down from 75mph in the far left lane to 20mph, and cut across to the right lane at the last second, and then blame RIDOT.

Sick thanks for the info

Yep. It's house of blues so hard to tell how many tickets are available but ticketmaster is showing a 2:1 deal on $20 floor tickets so I'm guessing it's not even close to sold out

Can I ask what side of Willow? The side closer to the park? Or the highway? (since Messer cuts through)

Good advice for pretty much any show. There's many things I wish I could tell my younger self but I'd probably start off with "Hey, constant tinnitus is really fucking terrible"

“JUST FUCKING SEND IT!!”

Sounds about right for that area

The Dark Lady is great. There are other gay bars more geared towards gays, Dark Lady is more geared towards the gay/queer/trans-side, very fun atmosphere the few times I’ve been.

They used to have fun punk shows sometimes, but I don’t think they’ve had any in a while.

Skervy Dog is a great punk dive, very welcoming to any/all.

RIDOT ain't paying my insurance premium if something were to happen so I am going to kindly log that silly bit of advice away where it belongs.

Millennial pink is -SO- 2019 lol.

This is the first I’m hearing of it, where is it and are tickets still available?

Can’t wait for this to go until 2026. By then Im sure they’ll find something else on 95.

This is drivers ed stuff. If someone is in the breakdown lane, slow down. Light traffic in the passing lane? Yeah, you should still go like 5-15mph slower than what you were doing before. IMO 65-70mph would be ok in that situation. If you're going 90 in that situation, you're an asshole. It's just a common courtesy to another human in a dangerous position.

So... tire changer in the breakdown lane, 95 South in Cranston. I'm in the high speed lane, light traffic. What do you suggest? 12? 15 mph for me?

Actually, they're slowing down because that's the law and they don't want to kill a poor soul changing a tire. If you're not slowing down a little for someone in the breakdown lane, you're a moron or a sociopath.

​

So for future reference: Slow down. If you're in the lane closest to the disabled vehicle, try to move to the next lane. If you can't because of traffic, that's fine. Just make sure you're going slow relative to the normal speed. If you're in lanes that aren't adjacent to the breakdown, you should still slow down to allow for lane changes or swerves.

RIDOT is gonna change those orange signs to read "DON'T BE A PUSSY"

Traffic engineering is such a joke

Cardboard box on the other side of the highway? Everyone slow down and look at it!!!

Please be sure to wear your earplugs during dino jr! Saw them in cambridge years ago and my right ear is still ringing

This in the state where if there's a tire changer in the breakdown lane, everyone slows down to see if they know 'em, or if it's uncle Louie, or..... ????

What a stupid comment from RIDOT. “Whatever you do, keep your speed. We don’t care if it doesn’t feel safe.”

Screw that. If it feels safer to slow down, I’m slowing down.

Hi!

The Eddy is my pick. Not quite Providence... but Bywater also has killer cocktails. Avery / Glou / Tiny Bar all have ok drinks but they mostly just taste like sweet juice (not a ton of nuance).

Hopefully non-creepy hello to say I also just moved down the street and know nobody in the neighborhood yet—hi!

As a brand & signage designer... I am begging businesses in Providence to hire me so I can do something more interesting and nuanced than more millennial pink 😇
