    nope, it's a real place, and it's just underneath the arena.

    Felt became Paramount and now Wamu... but is always the same venue; Theatre at MSG. (am I correct about Felt being The Theatre at MSG?)

    no THANKS PETE :lol:
    hahaha, was gonna say that. cause im pretty sure the who did a GA arena show once and people either died or almost died getting trampled on the way in through the door


    Are you seriously comparing that band, time, and venue to PJ, 2010, and MSG? It'll be an acoustic show. Check out the seating for Jack Johnson at MSG. Also, I'm sure long time 10C fans will trample each other...gimme a break.

    according to your logic , many people are going to get injured or die this summer at the festivals

    I'm all for this idea. I just think its dangerous trying to fit 25,000 (or whatever the gardens capacity) crazied PJ fans (all fighting for the front row) through doors that are three feet wide. It'd dangerous, its how people get trampleded. And yes, that is the risk you run at ANY ga show, not just GA arena shows....might I also mention Rosklide?

    GA Floor seats at MSG would only be in sections 1-4. Only people with tickets can get in through the special entrance. All the rest of MSG would be reserved seating. This would be ideal for an acoustic show.

    Check out Jack Johnson's seating arrangement.

    That is EXACTLY how I've been saying PJ floors should be (maybe first 1/3 of the floor GA) just so there's some movement and the band has something interesting to look at.

    Yeah man! nothing like being up front, and then having the freedom to go to the back and dance in circles. It;s alot better than being trapped in one cubic foot of space to go jam in. God forbid you want to dance in the aisle...security is all up on you in seconds. I'm referring to the first floor 4 sections at MSG
