For the life of me, I can't figure out why people need to see the band. I can't see the band on my car radio. My eyes don't add anything to what my ears hear. Just me, I guess.

And get off my yard.

Went to “hear” The Piano Men last night. I think the idea of outdoor concerts/movies is a great idea. But the stage needs to be higher, and also the screens. How did they think being on level ground would be okay? I’ve never been to a concert where the stage wasn’t raised up. Just sayin’

They should have staggered the golf carts so people could see over the cart in front of you. The carts were mostly 6 feet apart but parked one in front of the other, so you couldn't see anything and that also blocked your view of the screens as well. We paid $100 for 2 people in the green section and probably should have gone with the $60 in the back and done better. I hope entertainment sees this or hears from others, as we heard many complaints, and can improve this for the rest of the week's performances. We bought tickets for the same section for friday night as well, not excited about it.

$100.00??????

We felt safe as most people were wearing masks while in line and the cars/carts were socially distanced. We are going back Friday night for Queen and hope they make some adjustments to improve the experience.

I am always amazed when people who go to a 2 hour music concert and fear starvation!

The wait for drinks and food was 50 minutes!!! We purchased 4 events this time but probably won’t next time.

I'm glad I just stayed home. Hopefully 2020 will return to a non-Covid world.

I noticed you used to live in Alpharetta GA. It’s a beautiful area why would you move here from there ? Just curious. I’m thinking of moving up there.

My house shakes! But, it is a small price to pay for my view :-)

Has there been a single good thing in your life?

[jerseyshoreguy]

Were their food trucks and readily available bathroom facilities as announced?
Did they check to srr if you were bringing in drinks or food??

[Mewatt2@gmail.com]

Yup the neighboring communities heard it loud and clear.

As I recall they were about 300,000 people there. Went there with a bunch of friends and had a great time.

Thinking it was sometime in the 70's but could well be wrong.

A shame that Simon and Garfunckel could not get along better and stay together.

If you don’t want to see the performance save money and listen to the real Eagles on cd’s.

I say you can’t say you saw Hotel California if you can not visually see the band you just heard them.
