Greg1138 3 Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 Seriously - I love Kunzel's interpretations of Williams and others (though, strangely, I have yet to replace my battered old tape of Star Tracks or its sequel with a proper shaving mirror...) and this should be a great concert......shame I can't be there!!!!!!!

Greg1138 3 Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 Is it too late to change the Valkenburg concert yet? LOL Sadly - I don't think I would get away with carting an entire orchestra along too!!! Even then, I think some of my lot would complain a bit if I made them do JW stuff all the time - though they will be educated eventually.....Greg - who put them through their paces tonight with Air Foce One.....

Video screen is provided so you can actually see everything that's happening on the stage. Should this be your choice, prey it don't rain. :spiny: The best seats are $45.50. The rest of the seats go for $35.50.Add an extra $9-$10 for convenience/handling fees. Parking, of which there is plenty of, is free. Should you see a sign that reads WELCOME TO KENTUCKY while driving to the concert, fear not, you are headed in the right direction. The entrance to the parking lot will read CONY ISLAND but that is the right place to park. The parking lot is for both, Riverbend Music Center and Cony Island (amusement park).
