“Gloucester - Picture the perfect night out. Grab an early dinner, no winces when the bill arrives. Pop in for a cold and frothy at a nearby brewpub. Maybe catch a short play by a local director. Then cap it off with a late-night concert.”

“Do it all within a couple city blocks. Sounds good? Sounds like Boston. Wrong, think Gloucester.”
