Great video clip of the One and Only Mr. Butch of Allston/Kenmore Sq. fame.
Allston was one of the neighborhoods I lived in while going to school at Mass Art. The first year I lived there (1990), there were three used bookstores and two amazing indoor yard sale type junk shops on Brighton Ave. alone. Kenmore Sq. still had the Rat, the Wursthaus, and the cafeteria on the corner by the T that served trays of baked potatoes and macaroni and cheese.
I haven't really had a reason to go back to either neighborhood for years, but even though both are allegedly sterilized by chain stores and community zoning, I'm glad Mr. Butch is still going strong.
Check out Bill Miller's pictures of Allston while you're at it. Worth the download time!
