With all due respect to both the musicians involved and those who enjoy them--Lynyrd Skynyrd? Really? Do people know it's not even the same band? Are there that many of us with nothing to do in the evening?

Nevertheless, keeping my fingers crossed for Steely Dan, Counting Crows, Dylan...
I disagree, they've got a decent line up coming in so far. They are right on par with Xfinity Center in Mansfield, MA, and Boston Pavilion (or whatever its call now, I still call it Harbor Lights). The one who's hurting is Hampton Beach Casino, their line up (at least this year) is not that good. Ticket prices are all pretty similar when comparing the venues. (I didn't check Hampton's)
