    Haven't pulled the trigger. Will look into airbnb first, then decide.

    Omg. Stay anywhere in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens or the Bronx and take the train. I live in Brooklyn and will be taking the train both nights.
    And by train-I mean the subway.

    Chelsea is close by train and a very "safe" neighborhood.

    We got a good rate at the Wyndham New Yorker (steps from MSG) for 3 nights at $190 per.

    I have 3 nights booked at the nyma (New York Manhattan Hotel). It's like 3 blocks from MSG...feels safe around there to me. I stayed there last summer. After all the fees and taxes are added in, it will be $752 for 3 nights (Saturday checkin, check out Tuesday). You can find a little cheaper, but remember - sometimes you get what you pay for.

    I texted my son to see what he thought about staying in Chelsea. He sent me a link to Elvis Costello's "(I Don't Want to Go To) Chelsea". Ha, ha. Guess that was a creative way of telling me no.

    Does he know New York at all? That song was written in 1978...

    Then i say let your boy stay home. Ill gladly buy your extra ticket and go to the show. Anyway, Chelsea is a good area, good deal you got there.
    Too many shows to list:
    From my first show in Hawaii when they opened for RHCP to upcoming 2016 MSG and Wrigley. Seen them in every continent except Africa and Antarctica.

    Did you find the rate on booking.com? Going directly to them, I'm not seeing that rate.

    I forgot to mention we got that rate through Expedia because we also booked our flights on Expedia. Sorry about that. My bad.

    No problem. I still need to get airfare. That is another way to consider...

    I've been booking that place for years now for MSG shows. Just messing around. No reason to be so uptight.

    Would anyone be interested in getting an appartment through Airbnb to share?

    I'll be in NY 30/4-4/5 and figure it'd be cheaper to split the cost of a nice pad and likely more fun than getting a hotel.

    Or if there are any sane (I'm 48, party days long over) board members who have a room to rent that's maybe an option.

    May want to look in Jersey City or Hoboken as an alternative location with quick access to NYC

    Make sure you check the bed bug registry. I am not kidding either.
