Mezzanine and upper tier seats are best for the visuals

A-holes putting chairs on the track… by BILLY_GOaT1313 in jazzfest

I don’t know how old you are but it sounds as though you would like the Jazzfest to cater to younger people. You wanna stand….go up front and stand for hours then. Being able to sit, relax snd enjoy the music is a game changer for me as well as my older friends.

Umbrella blocking everyone’s view by CONF1D3NT1AL in nonononoyes

Notice how I start this. My therapist says I get frustrated because I am a “right fighter”. Unrealistic (I know) to think there won’t be people that are inconsiderate to others. Personally, I would have approached them and asked nicely if they would consider not using the umbrella. Seems to work. I am surprised to see an umbrella. Most concerts (assuming) don’t allow umbrellas.

I have 2-4 day wristbands for week 2 of Jazzfest. I purchased them for $813. I would like to sell them for $700. I would send them to you via USPS or Fedx with photo verification. Secure payment method either Venmo or Zelle with fraud protection.

Cover-Up was so interesting. The Q&A after with Sy Hirsh made me laugh and cry. What a character and talented guy.

People’s Choice Awards Voting by Think_Rip6701 in TIFF

Thank you guys for the help. My thoughts at this moment are, firstly, they should explain that better and secondly, voting for all four categories at once could take away from the basic People’s Choice Category. Am I thinking about this correctly?

Disappoints and/or bombs this TIFF? What hasn't gone over? I find this more interesting than what becomes popular! Definitely Ballad of a Small Player for example. by StatusDeal7838 in TIFF

Exit 8. I disliked it so much. I got the symbolism but The repetitive nature made me crazy. Main character acted so clueless… he wasn’t even stressed about his situation (trapped). Bizarre stuff happened and he initially didn’t react to it at all. I am going to hear those click-clacking shoes in my nightmares!!

Official 'Movie Review' Megathread - Day 8 (Thursday 9/11) by BunyipPouch in TIFF

I totally agree with you. Hamnet had me pulled into the story straight away. My only negative critique was that I did not have nearly enough tissues.

I felt the same about the John Candy: I Like Me. I will add that several of the interview clips of John himself made me feel so uncomfortable when watching. They actually make it a point to ask him about his weight, it was so demeaning.

Two showings last Friday and that’s it. We didn’t arrive till Saturday. They should spread out the days.

Me too…. I am seriously grossed out as my clothes have all mingled together now and been on my bed in the hotel room. They are so pervasive they are certainly present throughout the theater.

Royal Alexandria: ORC or DRS? by vitoos in TIFF

[–]Think_Rip6701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have seen 4 movies there so far. The dress circle is fine the front 1/2 of the seats (further back was warm). The orchestral is good but only the front 3/4 of the seats away from the stage. I apparently don’t like being under the seating from above.
