So we bought The Fifth Dimension tickets for November 9th (2 for $123). Our first time at that venue. WOW is that a long ways off. Feel sorry for the kids/parents having to drive them there and back each day. Understand no bus service. Anyway we hope it will be worth the trip to attend at this venue. Rumor has it that the acoustics suck.

Sorry. I know this is outside the OP subject but, what the heck I too needed to say something.

You will come back and confirm or deny that rumor?
BTW, rumor has it

This is a slap in the face to all of us who have frequented all the Village venues for shows and concerts. The other venues have always allowed you to return your tickets for a small administrative fee, and receive a credit toward a future event. The Tracy does not? If this is the Village’s way of promoting their new Art center they surely missed the mark!!

We went to the Tracey last night for the free, invitation only, ticketed event. They were selling all their show tickets for 50% off. I went to the box office & they gave me a credit on my account for 50% of the value of pre-purchased tickets.
Try again.

Huh? I'm confused. You had free tickets, but they gave you a refund anyway?

Love Classic Albums Live but $95 for a knock off band. Admit that they do have more musicians than the actual bands that they imitate. Thanks for the heads up. A lot more other places we can go and not have to drive "way down south"

Timing is everything.

Discounts on homes, cars, boats, golf carts, etc.

To be fair, they haven't done much of note in the last 30 years.

Kidding aside...these ‘artists’, much like athletes really can’t take time off. That’s why The Rolling Stones, Springsteen, Aerosmith et al amaze me with their longevity and quality of shows. ‘Staying in shape’ (for lack of a better term) is the difference between playing ‘The Tracy’ or playing the Meadowlands!
