It would have to be a really great artist for me to go out there for a show. The LIRR doesn't run there regularly so you need to take the subway to a bus or walk.

Right, but who is going to Nickelback? I'm (guessing) 30 and 40-something parents (who tend to live in suburbs)? -- nm - ty97 Jan 23, 15:52 3
- True and if there's a really good artist they'll play in the city and not out on LI. -- nm - Krusty Jan 23, 15:54 2
  - Many now play both. Fact is UBS arena is willing to pay acts more money than MSG. They are getting big gets. -- nm - MDH Jan 23, 16:44 1
    - They have to pay more to get them to go there. :-) -- nm - Krusty Jan 23, 17:26
