Information on how to get to the venue using Public Transportation

 

Don't even think about hopping in a cab from Manhattan to the venue; it'll cost you $75-$100 easy, and traffic in Queens/Long Island can be a BITCH on weekends. Do it if you have 3 or 4 people going together and willing to split the cost. What I would do is take either the E train from Penn Station or the F train from 34th Street / Herald Square all the way to the last stop in Queens (Jamaica-179 Street). Get out and take the N6L Long Island bus from 179th St station to Hempstead Terminal. From Hempstead Terminal take the N70, N71 or N72 bus to Hempstead Turnpike, which runs right along the venue. Sure, it requires a lot of transfers, but it's easy and a hell of a lot cheaper than cabbing it. I haven't ever taken this route, but if I've learned one thing after living in NYC all these years it is that it's very simple to get anywhere you need to go and there are tons of ways to get there. Good luck, and see you there.

[agenthal]

So, how is this going to work. I'll be taking Megabus up. How do I get there from the drop-off point?

[_silverrose_]

Will possibly go to this!! I hope!

[Destephticon]

of course they go on pre sale on wednesday when I am at work and can not get them- great! I may just have my friend get them and I will try on my phone (because that worked out so well last time )

Choose?? That didn't even cross my mind...

same here, my first thought was I'll be at both haha

[Triple C]

Put me on the list of hopefuls ... the challenge will be getting into the presale for both this and NJ. I can't imagine not going to both, since they're so close and on back-to-back, it just seems natural.

[james90]

[agenthal]

Which one do you think will be harder to get tickets for?

[bellapod]

No such thing as choosing either NY or NJ. I'm flying over so both.

25!

 

Getting super pumped! This couldn't be more perfect; a gig on Saturday only 10 minutes away by train and this time I'm going in the pit, hopefully!

 

About the Presale, will they be selling GA tickets in it? Or is it sitting only or a mix of both?

meh...Nassua Colosseum is a horrible venue :/

That's why they call it... Nassau Mausoleum.

 

To me it's great because I live in Merrick, and that's only 10 minutes by car from where I live.

Radio City Music Hall is 3 times smaller (5,000 capacity vs 15,000)

From Manhattan, I'd take the LIRR from Penn Station to Hempstead station and then bus it to the venue.

[Victoroy]

I have no idea what this venue looks like :O the website is pretty crappy compared to the MSG site anybody been there before? which are the best seats? by the way it'll be an adventure getting there from syracuse

WRXP is also doing a presale on Wed at 10 AM. Last time I had more luck with them than Concertmaps, so you might want to keep an eye on it
