UPDATE: Alas, a March blizzard can indeed keep the PRV v. BOS showdown from going down: word came down around 5:30 that Thunderdome is officially postponed. Look for a new date in a week or two.

THUNDERDOME.
THUNDERDOME.
THUNDERDOME.

There. You've been reminded. Not even a March blizzard can keep the PRI v.

Ever since we heard about Hollertronix taking root at the Ukranian Club in Philly, we'd been dreaming about a Boston party scene flowering at grimy, non-club-like venues. The obvious corollary was the Elks Lodge in Central Square: two basement rooms, no attitude (unless you count the gentleman's no-cursing rule enforced by the bartenders), a two-o'clock license, and -- dude -- paneling.

IF YOU GO:
