I guess he will not be playing The Villages....

Ummm, maybe someone can tell me why the parking problem will become so bad as the result of replacing the 950 seat Church on the Square with the 1,028 seat Sharon?

Just asking.

Because we need something to rant and rave about.

Um, Gatherer, I'd forgotten that. Glad I didn't mention Phoebe Snow, one of my top ten. Was just tossing out names that I thought would enjoy a venue of this size. They are out there and many are quite good. We'll never get the name acts and that's okay. We can get some truly good acts but the ticket prices need to reflect the talent. Please understand I'm not knocking this season's lineup (except the Broadway shows and they're a serious disappointment to me), just some of the prices for the acts offered.

Well, the Developer [and family] have built one themselves, which adds to The Villages.

Now, lots of folks on here are trashing the PAC [and the Developer] for parking and ticket prices, before it even opens.

When [and if] The Villages are ever turned over to the residents, that'll be the day I list my home for sale.

Here's one such thread from 2010:

The Time For a Performing Arts Center is Now

I so agree.

That is an excellent point you shared. The expansion did include partial removal of the rear parking lot. I don't know how many spots are lost - insignificant is my guess.

I guess the ticket prices are not scaring many folks away since the only seats left for the Millionaire Quartet have an obstructed view, and only a handful of those are available.

I was at the square last evening parked in the lot behind The Sharon. No parking problems. This includes the loss of spaces temporarily in front of Katie Belle's due to the remodel. I admit I was concerned about the parking until Villages Kahuna pointed out the seating capacity was only changing a small amount. Thanks Mr. K for posting a fact based message.
