I'm leaning towards staying in Jersey City for the concert. I'm staying for the entire long weekend (Canada) and at four nights, NYC is going to be too expensive, even though Priceline. I can get a beautiful 4* hotel for a heck of a lot less in Jersey City than a 3* in NYC.
Anyway, I know the train runs fairly late (I think 1:30ish), but does anyone about how much a cab to Jersey City from the MSG area would cost? Thanks!
it will be about $30-not including tolls (which is $8 for the cab to get back to the city). But it could be more...depending on how far into Jersey City. ]
The PATH runs all night- but there is some train hopping to get the late night- check the PATH schedule. It is definitely cheaper to go to Jersey City and the PATH is a 20-25 min ride.

Great! Thanks!
no Path train hopping unless y're going past jersey city to newark or getting off at jersey city exchange place (world trade line stops at exchange place, midtown 33rd does not)
on weekends/late nights the two path midtown 33rd str lines combine and one train stops at both hoboken and 3 jersey city stops (newport jc, grove st jc and journal square jc)
normally hoboken line is separate from journal sq line
You can catch the path one block from the garden (32nd and 6th avenue)

theres both a hyatt (exchange place path stop) and a brand new westin (newport path stop) along the jersey city waterfront

We've done this many times. In fact though we stay in Manhattan most of the time now, we always leave the car in Jersey City - you're not going to want to drive in Manhattan, and parking is way cheaper in Jersey. Just don't have too much baggage - makes it easier on the PATH. Don't bother with a cab - the PATH train is 1.75 each way - cheap!

oh, no worries...there are some cheap eats in NY.
i was simply referencing a foodie tour with mauichick would NOT be cheap. especially with all the drinking too.
i am so psyched for these shows - and to meet and see old and new friends!
I booked our flight earlier this week. From St. Louis to LaGuardia. I think both tickets round trip were only $420.00 total (including taxes, fees, etc) and no stops. American Airlines.
Can't wait. We had planned on going to MSG shows back in 2008, but had to cancel that trip. So we are psyched about it this year.

you are going to have such a GREAT time in NYC.....at MSG......we ALL are!
end of may is a beautiful time to be here. usually fairly gorgeous weather, but not too hot & humid.
Yes, plenty of cheap, good eats in NYC if you know where to look! Try checking out timeoutny.com, or pick up a copy of the mag when you get here.
Before canolis, head to Nyonya on Grand St between Mott & Mulberry. Next to Ferrara's!! Great Malaysian food. You can get a meal for under $10. It's not even dumpy anymore since they moved and got new furniture.

I'm excited about eating some NYC food. I am a vegetarian living in a rural area of the Midsouth - not many good food options for me. We have BBQ places on every corner.

Another great place to eat is Menchanko 55 on 55th between 5th and 6th. Had dinner there last night. UMMMMMM. The pork dumpling and the house special noodles- again- UMMM. And relatively cheap- less than $18 (sans tip) for a big bowl of noodles and the dumpling and a drink
the best thing about this thread is people mentioning numerous places that I've never been to and I live here..

Ooh, plenty of veggie options! You're not vegan are you? There's even a great vegan cupcake place! For starters, here are some good ones, where you can eat EVERYTHING on the menu:
