Country Music kicks ass! But it's really, really hard to find a place not only to hear Country, but also dance to it. This meetup gets people together who love listening to country music, love hanging out with friends and drinking beer (preferably out of mason jars), and who wanna dance to it! Line dancing may not have such a great vibe here in MA, but when you do it with a bunch of friends in a bar with lots of beer, it catches on and everyone has a great time.

In an effort to create a new kind of book club, this group is dedicated to combining a few wonderful and creative elements: literature, libations, and community. It is my hope that this group can explore a variety of literary works from best sellers to classics as dictated by the group.

Born in the Midwest and relocated to the Boston area? You're not alone. We get it. You like beer, sports, casual fun, laughing too loud in bars that aren't too swanky for their own good.

Comics are brilliant. They are also an overlooked and under-appreciated part of the literary establishment, so we're looking to redress the balance a little. This group will work pretty much like a traditional book club - we pick a new graphic novel or collection every month, read it and meet up for a discussion over coffee or a beer. We're going to try to find the literary corners of the graphic storytelling medium - I'm interested in how art style informs character perception; how panel layout …

Have a great time putting your esoteric knowledge to good use.  Pub trivia is a fun social event.  We compete with other teams at the bar for prizes and bragging rights.  If you have played before you know the drill.  If you have not, it is fairly easy to catch on.

For the last few summers a bunch of us played pick-up kickball through meetup and had a blast! We're looking for people who play for the love of the game and the community, and we welcome everyone regardless of skill level (these are just kindergarten sports, after all). Not only is meetup kickball cheaper than a league and a little bit less of a long-term commitment (though we won't be surprised if you become a weekly kickballer), this is a much better way to meet other people than joining an …

Sounds easy right? …
