Foxboro Hot Tubs at Emo’s Thursday
Foxboro Hot Tubs is the name Green Day is calling itself on the new album “Stop Drop and Roll.” The album comes out today.
It’s essentially Green Day sounding a lot like a ’60s garage/Beat band (Kinks, Sonics, etc.) Or Weezer.
Anyway, the band is playing the inside stage at Emo’s. Yes, you read that right. Inside. Which means a capacity of about 300.
Tickets only available at door, $20 a pop, limit two per purchase.
Good luck with this, Emo’s.

I think capacity for Emo’s Jr is 145. It doesn’t matter if it’s 145 or 300 though. It’s great to see established bands in a club setting but couldn’t the club be just a little more reasonable in size than this? Don’t get me wrong. I love Emo’s Jr but the Parish, La Zona, Antones, Emos main would be more accommodating.

Hey,
The capacity for Emo’s small room is 300. According to several sources, the band requested to be in the small room.
