Back to Rise (the club)

Rise is an after-hours dance club in Boston. A lot of people still have the perception that the whole city of Boston closes at 2am. That view is as obsolete as the Patriots being a bad football team

Rise is a dance club that opens around 1:30am in the morning and goes past sunrise, exactly what we need in this town. Especially now that there are some decent food options open 24 hours a day.

It’s also a members-only club, but becoming a member is not particularly hard if you’re just a little social in the club scene. Alli and I became members just about when the club started, and we enjoyed it.

But we hadn’t been in a really long time, until my friend Dan told me he was the DJ there last night. We wanted to go lend some support to him, and also check out the club again. We had a blast! He goes by the stage name DJ Daniel David, and his music was awesome. Upstairs they had another DJ, who was also excellent. It’s always a good crowd and a fun atmosphere.

We didn’t end up going to sleep until past 5am, so we just woke up a little while ago I feel like a college student again, and I love it!
