I doubt if I'll ever do another outdoor venue concert again. The last one I did was the Down From The Mountain Tour, two years ago. I had a excellent seat, the ticket was steep, 40+ once charges were added in. I read on another thread that you saw Rush in Virginia Beach @ the Verizon Wireless Amphitheater. How was that venue? I live a mile or so down the road from there, lol, I've never seen a show there.

I've seen Rush several times, way back in the days of Fly By Night, 2112, Farewell to Kings, etc.

We're fortunate to have a small venue club ,(1,500 max capacity), in the Norfolk area
The Norva.

Tickets are usually in the 12.50-25.00 range. There isn't a bad "seat" in the house.

Nowadays, I see mainly bluegrass style groups. I saw Del McCoury there a few months back. 2+ hours of music and you can actually get close enough to speak to the band on stage. IMHO, The "warehouse/stadium" rock show venue blows for the folks that want a decent show.

I would rather attend my voice teacher singing at a concert hall with an orchestra or a single piano than to see much of the no-talent pop stars who are so pathetic they deserve a trip to the Oval Office.
