Boston Reacts to the Closure of Beloved Rock Club Great Scott

Since 1976, Great Scott has stood sentry at the corner of Comm. Ave. and Harvard Ave., presiding over the ebbs and flows of Boston’s rock scene.

 

As of Friday, May 1, the watch has ended for the club. General Manager Tim Philbin posted the following to Great Scott’s social media channels last Friday afternoon:

Some news from our general manager Tim below. Ticket buyers will be receiving emails with further information.

 

From there, the floodgates opened, with bands who played the club and fans who called the club a second home paying tribute.

Ryan H. Walsh on Twitter

From our very first show (ever) on 11/20/2005 to the I'm You release concert 11/19/2020, @GreatScottROCK *always* felt like home base.

Nick Benevenia on Twitter

There was a spirit inside that place, perhaps emanating from the bust of Elvis, which turned those four walls into heaven." I tried writing about how formative Great Scott was to my adulthood, but mostly let others do the talking. https://t.co/mWFjcZ6XRD

Long live Great Scott. https://t.co/UYyQ4ojaLl

 

Of course, there’s already a petition circulating to save Great Scott. You can sign that here. And you can read up on the history of the club and the factors that led to this here.
