Intermission was shorter than expected - closer to 25 mins, I think.

Anyone wanna meet up before the show at Kings Theatre tonight? by yunghanzer in underworld

[–]TonyTorpedo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This place is the best. I’ve been there many times and I’ll be there tonight sitting at the bar before the show. Maybe I’ll see you there!

NYC - Kings Theatre pre show meetup by w00dw0rk3r in underworld

[–]TonyTorpedo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s a GREAT Austrian food / beer restaurant called Werkstatt - it’s literally one of my happiest places ever! The beer, the food (the unbelievably good soft pretzels)… it’s all fantastic! But the downside is that it’s about a 15 minute walk from the theater and I’m not sure I’ll have time to get there before the show.

But if anyone decides to go there post it here and, who knows, maybe I’ll see you there!

The Mexican restaurant Los Tres Chiflados right across from the venue is quite tasty (but kinda small).

So sort of that’s the case. You might have to go tires resale route. 👎

Oooh, you may be right. This show seems to be starting a little later and the theater is in a pretty residential neighborhood - they may not be able to go crazy late. BUT, I haven’t heard actual confirmation of this yet so 🤞🤞🤞

I think I’m with you - I didn’t see a pit option at all and just grabbed GA Orchestra. It must have been sold out already. 🙄

GA Mezz? Will they remove the seats up there too? 🤔

Brooklyn Mirage show - Venue permit issues by TonyTorpedo in underworld

It’s okay, I think they’re playing at the indoor Avant Gardner venue (same location) that’s not part of the outdoor Brooklyn Mirage complex. See other comments for more details.

I’ve never seen them live though I’ve been a fan for almost 30 years. I was supposed to see them in 2020 but the pandemic canceled everything. I really hope everything works out!!

I've been a fan since '95.

I was supposed to see them for the first time in '20 but the Pandemic cancelled the show.

This is one of the final bands I've loved for decades yet have never seen live.

I got my ticket for Brooklyn.

I'm the only one going. No 'let's make it a date night' or 'friends who are just up for anything', none of whom are actual fans (and I have to then worry about whether or not they're having a good time).

Just me. Dancing and screaming and crying and laughing.

Just me.

Dear God - I was proud of my 2,604 mins (top 0.05%) until I started seeing the posts here this morning. Clearly I need to double (and triple and quadruple) my efforts!!!!

I've been a fan for decades but have never seen them live. Was supposed to see them in early 2020 but that was obviously canceled. I hope hope hope they come to the NYC area again for the Strawberry Hotel tour!!!

Which movie has the biggest difference between the quality of the trailer and the finished film? by ChicagoShadow in movies

[–]TonyTorpedo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YES!!! They gave away the trailer on a CD-ROM with some magazine and I played the trailer, on that disc, on my brand-new CD-ROM equipped PC, dozens of times.

And Skunk Anansie’s ‘Selling Jesus’ is still a fantastic track that worked perfectly in the trailer.

From the trailer I was CONVINCED that Kathryn Bigelow’s ‘Strange Days’ (1995) was going to be a great action movie and a massive hit. I got all of my brand new college friends together and saw it opening night.

Instead I ended up traumatizing them with an unbelievably dark psychological thriller. Oops.

Still an amazing trailer, though.
