I was just looking at the website, and some shows are labeled "reduced capacity" while others are "full capacity." It appears the soonest shows are the former, which makes sense. I'm guessing a lot of places will start to move to the "by this point in time, if you're worried about Covid you will have been vaccinated" approach.

Also, I agree that there's nothing like live music, but—similarly to Red Sox, Bruins, and Patriots tickets—the prices are just not feasible for a family of four on a budget. Case in point: A decade ago, I saw Blue Man Group three or four times in as many years. I took my high school students on field trips there twice. Now? Impossible. Last we checked, it was going to cost the four of us $350 for partially obscured seats. Add parking, fuel, and a snack, and we break $400.

Live music for us these days is mostly in local parks or on our association's patio with local bands.

Agreed and I'm dating myself here but:

Back in the day as they say - I would buy 4 to 6 games way in advance with 4 tickets in the bleachers. Maybe $8-$12 a ticket. If I could not go - give them to someone or if it was going to rain - maybe eat them..

Now same seats over $32 a ticket and $128 per game - no joke anymore and cannot use the same approach, that's for sure.
