I'd definitely make the trek to Boston. That's TDH's backyard. They always have good shows and strong crowds there.
You should too!
I've done it before... drove up there for one of their 2008 Holiday shows with 3 at Cafe 939. It's like a 5 hour drive though. Really exhausting to get there and back in one day. If they were headlining I'd consider it, but not for an opening slot where they'll just be playing the same set every night.
p.s. ~ This was the setlist for that Boston show...
City Escape
Inquiry of Ms. Terri
Where the Road Parts
Dear Ms. Leading
The Bitter Suite 1&2
Black Sandy Beaches
His Hands Matched His Tongue
New song from the video*
Nameless new song*
Lake and the River
The Procession
Red Hands
Oracles
The Church and the Dime
The Pimp and the Priest
Smiling Swine
*Not entirely sure, but I think the two "new" songs were In Cauda and What It Means To Be Alone
