Smeltington 1,436 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 I may end up selling my tickets if I can I spent too much on them...Anyway I'll update when I know for sure. If I end up going I'd love to meet everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,337 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 The way I look at it is: Every May (or June) Williams concert at Symphony Hall may be his last. You'll regret not going, but you won't regret going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smeltington 1,436 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 I wish you weren't so right!!! Although there's also the Kentucky show coming up, which is driving distance for me, so that makes it harder to justify going this time. Hmmmm.Still need to think about it.

Thor 7,490 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Keep doing it ONE MORE YEAR, Williams, just one more year. Next year in Boston -- if it's the same time of year (preferably one week or two later) and if I have the money -- I'm there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is remarkably energetic for a 81 year old in the sense that conducting a two hour concert and this amount of travelling would be a challange for most people his age.

Thor 7,490 Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Cool, Alice!Also, if he comes to New York before this time next year, I would consider that as well. It's really NY which is the major draw after Williams for me. Everyone I know has been there, except myself. My next US trip would HAVE to cover NY.

josefsuma 9 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Josef, since you have been at that hostel before? How are the facilities? Is there good wifi? A power-socket for charging my phone and somewere to stow away my stuff while I am out and aboutWell, I just find that hosteling international moved from Hemenway st. where I lived at 2010 to Stuart street, so it is hard to say. The previous hostel was not quite great - there were really darkened rooms and you should use computers in the hall way only if you paid 1 dollar per 10 minutes - I have never used the pubic Wifi, because I did not had the smart phone with Wifi reciever. Powersockets will not be a problem and there are some boxes where you can put your stuff, but a as almost everything there, I did not used them. So, the only thing I can say is that I have seen a pictures of the new hostel and it is looking 5 times better than the previous one. You should look at them. http://bostonhostel.org/about-us/photo-gallery/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Brausam 214 Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 By staying 20 minutes out of the city I managed to save more than $100 off the cost of an in-city hotel, I don't think that's a bad option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
