i was there a few weeks ago...AVALON was a nice club but crowd was real real lame. Actually there is a whole strip right across the street from Fenway park. All the clubs are connected..this includes Avalon, Axis, and I forgot the other names. The clubs look pretty but the crowd doesnt. I went when Josh Wink was spinning so I dont know how the residents are. I noticed a lot of hip hop was also being played at the various clubs. Even though I didnt get a chance to go, I heard good things about Pravda. I believe it more of a wanna be elite crowd. Dont know of any underground, dirty parties..but if you find out let me know cause I plan to go to back. Such a nice city.
