Hey guys,

I'm going by bus from DC to NYC on Monday when I travel to the city for the MSG shows. I'm wondering if there is any place in Penn Station that has storage lockers, etc. for baggage? Ideally I'd like to hop on a tour bus thing to sight see when I get into the city around 1:30 that afternoon. I don't want to travel all the way to Long Island jus to drop off my stuff at my step-bro's house, then come BACK into the city! I thought about packing light and carrying a larger backpack with me, but in a Post-9/11 society carrying a big back pack into the Empire State Building or the Staton Island ferry would have security all over me like flies on shit!

If anyone can suggest a place to store my bags at Penn Station or near by where I can pick them up later (I'll be taking the LIRR to my step-bro's later) that would be great!
I won't change direction, and I won't change my mind - E.V.

    I could be dead wrong, but I believe in the Amtrak area they have lockers for rent. Now you may need to be an Amtrak rider, or I could be entirely wrong, but I believe I remember some lockers when I travelled cross country on the mighty trak!

    They'll let you stash them at the Irish Pub on 8th Ave and 33rd Street right near MSG. That's what my buddies and I do for the Big East Basketball tourney every year.
