Show Notes:
The Metro was part of “The Metro/Spit” club complex at 15 Lansdowne Street, across from Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox, from 1980 to 1988.
The address has hosted a succession of music venues, beginning with The Ark in the late 1960s. It became the second home of The Boston Tea Party when the club outgrew its original 53 Berkeley Street location, based there from July 1969 until closing at the end of 1970. The space later became a disco, then The Metro/Spit, followed by Citi, Axis, and Avalon, before being demolished and replaced by the House of Blues in 2009.
Eric first performed at the Lansdowne Street venue in 1970 (The Boston Tea Party) and returned in 1986 (The Metro).
