One thing about Van-the-Man, he starts his concerts on time. The lights went out and they started playing before half the venue patrons were seated. Speaking of the venue, it is more suited for boxing matches than for concerts. You had to look sideways to see the band and there were railing blocking the views from some seats. It was strange -- seats facing a center pit but the stage was at the end. There were very few good seats unless you wanted to sit on the floor level which actually was level, not graded up as it should be. My seats for $100 sucked. I didn't like the Hard Rock venue but the sound system was excellent. Van Morrison was great. At the end of the concert it was the end of the concert. He closed with not one of his best songs and never came back for an encore, it started at 8:05 and ended at about 9:45.
The low point of the concert, Terry Murphy, Vile Natacha Seijas's Chief of Staff, was there with his new bride.

Yeah, the incorrect angle on the seats sucks. As do the bars blocking many of the upper level seat's views. I believe it was built for arena football?
Bummed I didn't go, but really I need to be on the floor there and $250 for 1.5 hours for anything close is a bit of a stretch.
