My favourite thing about the Coast Awards is how Point Pleasant won for “Most Underappreciated Park,” and also won awards in like, six other categories.
Oh, and twenty-four hours after winning “Best Kept Secret,” Bella Muse art-space has been shut down by the landlord. I rode by there yesterday and there were all these legal notices on the doors. Something about “Fourteen Thousand Blah Blah Dollars.” Whoa.
I had some pretty good memories from performing at Bella Muse. It was an important part of North End culture, if only because it kept a lot of naked hippies off the streets.
