Where to see Lindsey

[nailatixela]

I'm not sure if anyone has ever seen Lindsey in either of these 2 venues: The Keswick Theatre (glenside, pa) or at Trump's Taj (atlantic city, nj) Any suggestions on which venue to see him at? I can only go to one and I'm not sure what one to choose.

Thanks.

I've never seen him in either venue, but in my experience, it might be better not to see artists at a casino show where many of the ticketholders are comped and not as enthusiastic as a regular audience might be. They get distracted and are walking in and out at inopportune times. I don't know what it's like in the Taj, but I've seen it happen at other casino shows, especially the Indian reservations, but its been true in Reno and Vegas too.

I think it can have an impact on the band's energy. Michele

I'd say go to which ever is smaller. He blew my mind with both the soft and the loud stuff on the UtS tour.

My main question? Are you in the general area? If you plan on spending the night somewhere-choose the Keswick.
I haven't seen a show in either place but I've been to many shows in Atlantic City. Most of them are really just fine. I don't think they comp too many of these type of concerts. They usually do the ones where the act is staying for a week or so. I'm sure they comp some, but the tickets offered on ticketmaster were really quite good, which leads me to believe they didn't hold back as many good seats as, say, the Borgata.
However, if you have to spend the night in Atlantic City--on a Saturday--it's HUGELY expensive.
I'm sure a local hotel/motel near the Keswick would be a much better choice, as far as price is concerned, and that is a major issue nowadays.

Thanks for your thoughts. I've seen Stevie 2 times at the Borgata and people do walk out often. I wouldn't have to spend the night going to either of these venues - the keswick I believe is a 1,200 seater, but I have no idea about the Taj.

The Xanadu theatre at Trump Taj seats 1500 people. The benefit of being there is there's always restaurants around, and certainly plenty of hotels, but, as Regina said, there's a price to pay if you don't have a Trump One card. It's pricey if you stay overnight, but you can park for free if you want to walk a bit. Jersey traffic can be tough on the weekend. I don't think there are any hotels in Glenside but it's not far from Philly, Willow Grove, Jenkintown, Fort Washington, Horsham, etc.

Thanks Tango - I think I am going to end up going to the Keswick. Glad that it is smaller than Trump's place. Like I said, I'm not staying overnight either way, so hotels don't matter.

I'm excited, this will be my first Lindsey show!
