I have no idea if EV is going to do another solo tour, but why not give EV and his management some ideas of the next place to play?! If we save them some legwork, maybe they'll consider some venues and locations that they would normally not consider.


Post the following info for your suggestion:

-Venue name and location
-Capacity of venue (you can usually google that info)
-Website link
-Photo of inside of venue



My recommendations:

Carpenter Theatre
Richmond, VA
Capacity: 1,800
http://www.richmondcenterstage.com
carpenter-theatre-inside.jpg


Byrd Theatre
Richmond, VA
Capacity: 1,500
http://www.byrdtheatre.com
*note: this is actually a movie theater, but hosts rare concerts, and has a working retractable organ that is played before movies on weekends

The National
Richmond, VA
Capacity: 1,500

*Note: Richmond is conveniently located 90 minutes south of DC, 90 minutes west of Virginia Beach and 70 minutes east of Charlottesville, so selling out relatively quickly would not be much of an issue. :)
ADD 5,200 to the post count you see, thank you. :)

    I live in Boston and since Eddie already played the Opera House in 2008, I have 2 suggestions of venues to play in the future:

    The Shubert Theatre:

    171062056.jpg

    Shubert.jpg

    265 Tremont Street

    Boston, MA

    617-482-9393


    This restored 1500+ seat theater; and considered Boston Theatre District's Little Princess, continues to be the home for many local community arts organizations. The Shubert Theatre also serves as a venue for the touring companies that present Broadway, theater, music, dance, and opera.

    The Wang Center

    Historic Wang Theatre is a beautifully restored performing space. With over 3600 seats, it hosts a dynamic range of dance, music and theatre. Wang Theatre along with The The Shubert Theatre comprise the Citi Performing Arts Center. photo: Noah Kern
    The Wang Center is a large, elegant performing arts venue in the heart of the theatre district, showing everything from free movies on Monday evenings (check out Movie Mondays) to Boston Ballet and touring Broadway shows.
    He who forgets will be destined to remember.

    The Paramount Theater - Seattle

    I believe it seats 3500 and it's one of the coolest and oldest theaters in town. I'd post pictures but I'm on my iPod.
