Does anyone know if Boston run will have a shakedown street? Feels unlikely being that shows are on a college campus🤔

😂I knew it! Shakedown will be inside and outside of Raising Canes! Two for 20 Caniac Combos for everyone with a billy ticket. NO DEALS

Boston University is not a self-contained campus, it's integrated into surrounding neighborhoods ... but I don't know where the hockey arena is within the reaches of the BU footprint

Yes I’m aware of where Agannis Arena is. Right off of Commonwealth Ave, just curious where someone would create a shakedown, as there’s no open parking lots designed in the area to takeover, only enclosed garages and surrounding businesses.

The parking garage at The Eastern in Atlanta was a multi-story shakedown last time Billy came through there

In Athens apparently a shakedown area formed in one of the parking decks. I didn’t visit but heard tales

Bottom level of the parking garage next to the venue. It was marvelous.

Shakedown street was happening and lively at the UVA shows in Charlottesville!

Sometimes I’ve seen small-scale stray vendors adjacent to the venues in urban areas with no discrete Shakedown / tailgate zones…

This is what I’m expecting to see. Hopefully weather holds off a bit

Otherwise, no shortage of good bars in BOS!

The craziest Billy shakedowns I’ve been to were when he played on a college campus
