So guys, I am going to Boston next Saturday (the 15th) and I will be there until Tuesday (the 18th) visiting my friend who is going to Berklee College of Music. But SE++, we need your help.

You see, we are both very poor college students looking for a night out on the town, for cheap cheap cheap. Or day out on the town. Whatever.

If you know the area, what can we do that isn't very expensive but still is something I can do in Boston that I can't do in Texas.

Also, for the record, that Monday is Saint Patrick's Day and I hear something about turning the river green or something like that? I'll be seeing that for sure. I mean, Galveston's water is always green but that's generally why we avoid it.

    Avoid the bars near fenway. Too crowded, too expensive, filled to the brim with douchebags with funny accents.

    Doing anything in Boston will be hard as fuck for cheap. Still go an drink on Monday, any luck you'll see a few bar fights like I saw. And other things...many wonderous things. St. Paddy's is like an Irish Christmas

    Go Matt Murphy's, the Pour House, or Cornwall's, check Beer Advocate.com see if they have any beerfests going on, go to the Publick House, hit up China Jade for Dim Sum and then stop by the Coffee House to pick up steamed big buns for the road, avoid Cask n Flagon unless you like the douchebag crowd. Same goes for Tequila rain and basically anything that faces Fenway.

    Also duck boat tours, mike's pastry in the north end, avoid Southie like the plague, go to Roxbury to catch it (if BU's bio lab is built), science park, newbury street, duckpin bowling, rockband at my place, etc.

    Thanks this is the kind of help I'm looking for.

    Will definitely be checking out Mike's Pastry and the other food places because I like to eat.

    Also, beer will probably be pretty hard for us as we're both 19.

    Don't go to China Jade for Dim Sum, The Imperial is much better.

    Don't do the Duck Tours. They're overpriced and geared towards kids and women

    Mike's Pastry is solid, though. I know a guy there and the stuff he brings is always fantastic

    Science Museum is tits, so's the aquarium. MFA is also nifty if you're into that kind of thing, or Faneuil Hall.

    The Imperial? BAH.

    Actually I go to the Chow Chau more often than not.

    And what does Faneuil Hall have going for it besides the giant food court?

    Also grab a copy of the Weekly Dig (don't bother with that rag the Phoenix), they usually have a good handle on the happenings of the week.
