Sh*t, other than FM and the Eagles, I listen to country, almost exclusively. And almost none of my friends even LIKE country, let alone want to go to a concert, or Nashville.
Oh well, fukc em. I've learned to just go, and have a good time by myself. They can have their damned Lady Gaga!

I have strange taste in music so it's hit or miss if I'll have somebody with me. For example in the next few months I'm going to:

Rammstein - with my boyfriend, and two younger brothers
Janet Jackson - with my mother
Kylie Minogue - alone
Adele - alone, maybe with my cousin

I did end up going to the MSG show. I posted a few pics and videos on the MSG thread for anyone who hasn't checked it out and is interested.

It really was a good experience, although being surrounded by Rod fans was less than spectacular. This guy next to me just sat there and luckily the girls in the seats next to me didn't show up till after Stevie's set, so i was up dancing around.

Trying to get a friend on board for Borgata, but if not, I'm seriously thinking about heading down anyway.

I was in the lower loge area and didn't have a problem at all. Someone glanced in my purse when i walked in and that was it.

I thought I read a review or two where people closer to the stage were being more closely monitored.

But there were tons of flashes going off, so I doubt you'll have much of an issue.

Have a wonderful time!

I've seen them in England and Germany, and they're absolutely brilliant. I can't wait to see them here.

I am very particular about who I go to concerts with, after having to leave a Metallica concert after my friend said she suddenly felt sick! Unfortunately I forgot this and took a friend to the NH Unleashed show. She griped about the seats (front row!), saying she would prefer to be up in the nosebleeds so she could glower at the performers. Suddenly I remembered how ****ing weird she is, and why I take her in very small doses. She then proceeded to announce to everyone in earshot that she never wears a bra . I ignored her for the rest of the evening and prayed she wasnt making angry faces at Lindsey. She later confessed that she loved the show and thought they were incredible performers, but that doesnt mean she wasnt acting stupid during the show.

I find it is best to go with people who are as nuts about the band as I am, because part of the fun is rehashing the concert afterward. If that is not possible, going alone is no biggie.
