Title: Things To Do In Northampton MA
Post by: Mark7 on 22 Aug 2011, 14:55

I have a friend (who isn't a member of these forums) who'll be visiting there between the 12th and the 16th of September. She's looking for stuff to do whilst she's there. She'd especially like to hear about any gigs taking place.

Cheers.

I honestly know crap about Northampton, despite being about an hour away.

There's a v. decent yarn store there, though.

Uh Umphrey's McGee is playing in Northampton on the 16th, if they're into that sort of thing. I'm driving out from Boston to go see.

Northampton is like a miniature version of Portland, there's a lot of coffee shops and vegan places that are pretty cool.

Tell her to go hang out with the hipsters at Smith College. I spent a lot of summers there just walking from place to place. Stalk down whatshisfacetheguywhowrotewatchmen he lives there.

You mean Alan Moore?

I think you might be getting Northampton MA confused with Northampton UK.

Unless he actually has moved to NoHo  :-o

Please tell me she's not going there just because she's a fan of this comic...

I love Northampton. It's a place I can go to and just hide, in a weird way. I can't wait for fall, when it will be beautiful with all the leaves changing colors. That's probably my favorite time to be there.

I live about 45 minutes from Northampton...I like it a lot, but it's probably more exciting for someone seeing it for the first time. Then again, it's not Paris.. :p
