The theater was beautiful eye candy that melded with, in my opinion, a great performance by the band.<br /> The theater staff was pleasant and courteous, a rarity in today's venues. There were no theater goons detracting from the enjoyment of dancing in the aisles or other such "bad" activities.<br /> I will gladly drive 2 hrs to see Moe. in this venue again!!<br /><br />PS The good vibes created the scene for an incredible show!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
