What's the deal? Buffalo isnt too bad of a drive to see Pearl Jam from New York...I mean, it's closer than the other cities. Please, Niagra Falls is nearby and those wings....Oy My GOD...the WINGS.

    If anyone was driving back to NYC after the show and I could catch a ride with them I'd be at the show.

    HINT HINT!

    It's not nearly the same thing. Buffalo doesn't even have direct flights to most major US cities and with apologies to those from Buffalo, who on earth would want to stay over night in that city? :shock:

    Buffalo is a 6-7 hour drive from nyc. hartford is maybe 2, and boston is 3-4. Buffalo might not be an easy trip for all people.

    Direct flights to and from NYC are constant and are very cheap.

    Spoken like a true citizen of Toronto. That's okay, you can keep your Leafs and Argos and stay in the center of the universe.

    Why do you have to fly to st. louis or kansas city??? Aren't they coming to your town? JUST STAY THERE THEN. WE DON'T WANT UNGRATEFUL PEOPLE HERE. HOW ARE THE RANGERS DOING THIS SEASON BY THE WAY?? AREN'T THE SABRES IN FIRST PLACE? YEAH. It's really not depressing here at all. Can't wait for next sabres game, and Pearl Jam is coming? What a beautiful city we live in---not all concrete and buildings, nice weather from April to October. And down-to-earth non-uptight people. Wow I love Buffalo! and CWAFEE :D

    Sorry, I worded that VERY poorly. I was trying to say that travellers trying to get TO BUFFALO from other cities (NYC being an obvious exception) wouldn't be able to find direct flights. I fly out of Buffalo all the time and direct fllights are few and far between...

    NYC yes
    MSG not so much
    the spectrum is a better venue
  • MayDay10MayDay10 Posts: 11,677
    haha. No.

    Ive been to a show (non PJ) in MSG and it was OK. Nothing great.

    Went to a hockey game there and it was one of the worst places to watch a game I have seen in about 14 NHL arenas.

    But people from NYC insist the place is magical.

    definitely not the best concert venue either
    truthfully, the sound is not that great and the room is big
