*Be sure to call and double-check with the venues for performance times, ticket prices, locations, etc. These dates are subject to change at any time*
**Regarding the
21+ state of some shows, from Glen:
"We always try and do as many all age concerts
as we can. If we had our way they all would be all ages...that is
our priority, but it doesn't always work out."
Also...
*Casino shows are
almost always 18 or 21+ shows. If you're underage, ALWAYS
call ahead to make sure you can attend these shows (write down who you
talk to, so you have that info to fall back on, if necessary). You
may be able to buy tickets even if you aren't old enough to attend the
show, and if you DO
have tickets and aren't old enough, you'll be turned away and could even
be escorted out of the building, due to gambling and age laws.*
Some
hints...
- Get your tickets EARLY, as soon as you hear about the show. BBVD has a knack for selling out shows the same day it goes on sale.
- Keep track of those tickets! Venues aren't going to replace them if you lose them or spill gin 'n' tonic on them.
- Call ahead to see if there are any restrictions, i.e. age requirements. The boys don't *generally* play limited access shows, but there is a chance that a venue could throw a 21+ (or 18+) on top of the whole thing, just to sell more drinks and things like that. Get all that info before you get all slicked up to the 15's, ready for a night of Voodoo. Tears don't work, and you WILL be turned away, no matter how much you beg, plead or offer.
- If the show is in a casino or hotel and you need a room, ask about deals. Some places offer reduced-rate or even free show tickets when you book a room.
- Remember to call about the photo policy before you show up, Funsaver in paw. Some venues prohibit picture-taking and might even swipe your camera. Also, be on the lookout for the official event photog, especially at a casino. They like to get right down in front, and have a tendency to push you out of your well-earned spot.
- Don't despair if
the meet 'n' greet is VIP's only. If a large corporation (like Bell
Atlantic at the JazFest in NYC), is sponsoring the event, they'll do something
like this to make investors feel special (like the free drinks weren't
good enough?!?). Don't panic - these little lovefests are usually
fairly short, and you can usually catch them making a quick getaway. Heck,
you might even see 'em without their hats.
