R.I.P. Rise Afterhours - Boston, MA

I really will miss all of the good times there!

Danny Tenaglia closed it out properly for 10 and a half hours though!

Owners moved to NYC and were involved (from my understanding) with Verboten for a little bit but have decided to get out of the club business altogether. They had an amazing run from 1998-2015. I was treated with respect always by the owners and management. They stayed away from the other club/nightlife politics bullshit that's common in Boston (or anywhere for that matter). A lot of people were in tears after the party. Not every club makes people cry when they close. It says a lot about the place!

Sad news indeed - my old stomping grounds when I still lived in Boston. Peak was between 2003 to 2007...then the scene kind of just died. The crowd/vibe just wasn't the same but it was nice to see some of the same faces week in and week out.

Darrin/Tom were awesome owners - the created a great club.

What are they doing now? Are they still in the web design space?

Yeah, this sucks. Made it there once for JOOF. Really cool place... and a really unique thing for Boston. Sorry, Bostonians. First the Bruins, now this
