A final dubious idea came from a friend who suggested that since First Night in Boston was so focused on benign activities for families with young children then Central Square should host raucous events for young adults, which she suggested calling Last Night. Last Night would be loud rock, and a cheap beer tasting by the Central Square subway stop. At midnight a mime would be thrown off a tall building. I said that all of this is offensive. You’ll be happy to know that I spoke in favor of restraint and taste.
