5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

What a fabulous venue! Easy to get to, plenty of reasonably priced parking. With a great view of the harbor, there is always a nice breeze and you can see the planes coming for a landing at Logan. The biggest surprise was the bathrooms - really nice! Not what you would expect at an outdoor venue. The staff is pleasant and helpful. The seat are very close together (they chairs are all bound to each other) but there really isn't a bad seat in the place. There is a pretty good selection of food and beverages. They are pricey, but I've seen a lot worse. This is just a great place to see a concert!

Pros: Nice bathrooms, good parking, easy to get to, not a bad seat in the house.

Cons: Congestion at the entrance because of the t-shirt concession.

Been to a lot of places around and I love this place. Ticketmaster and clear channel still rip you off, but it's like that in any decent size venue. Kind of out of the way, but it's an outdoor venue, it needs to be away from the heart of the city a bit. At least it's not Tweeter (horrible!). Not one seat is bad and the atmosphere is relaxed, wish the season was longer.

Pros: Small, intimate for popular bands

Aweful staff, terrible event management, no atmosphere, and they try to sell you Cadillacs and cell phones around every corner. If I wanted commercials, I'd watch MTV. DO NOT SEE A SHOW HERE

As long as the roar of jets does not bother you, then you'll love this place. However, if a jet taking off and blasting its engines less than a thousand feet overhead will you try to listen to music or comedy is not your thing, then stay away from here.

Cons: not on transit system

Good drinks, great sound, beautiful harbor views, and every seat is a great seat.
