Badfish

Hello again!! In my last post I had talked about going to plays and shows. There is also other types of shows that you can go to in the city. There are musical shows that you can go to with friends, family, and/or teammates..whoever.

Once again I will be talking about how it can be inexpensive to do fun things and have a good time in New York City. People love going to music concerts and dancing to music and wanting to be in the front row, but those tickets are an aweful lot of money to go and see your favorite musical group or singer.

There are little bands and preformers that like to play in the city and they are usually in small places that are bars or even small theaters. There is one famous theater called the Nokia Theater and I have gone there plenty of times to see a show.

this is the Nokis Theater in New York City

One of my favorite shows that I have been to was to see a band called Badfish. They are a cover band to another band called Sublime. Sublime is a little more famous and known by more people, but some things happened to the band and now they have a cover..Badfish. They are a really good bad and they put on a good performance. It is music for an older crowd and not for younger people, but it is so much fun when you go with your friends. I went with three of my friends to one of their shows and we had a blast.

For something like this band, being that they aren't known too well the tickets are not expensive at all. We had only pais $25.50 and some money for a train ticket there and back. Even if you do not know the preformer, you will have a good time and it will be worth it. There were some opening bands that I had never heard of before I went to the concert, but once I heard them starting to play, I liked the music and the whole show was amazing.

Lookin for a good show?

A lot of people are wanting to make it big and be on Broadway. New York City is the big place to go and be on stage. Going to see a Broadway play is an amazing experience. Yet, there are times when people do not want to go to the city and pay for expensive tickets to see a show.

Some shows are not that expensive. Most tickets can be at least three hundred dollars and no one wants to spend that kind of money. There are also times when you can go and see a great show for just about seventy-five dollars and you and some friends can gather up and go. Even with family members or a girlfriend/boyfriend would be a great idea for a gift or just for fun.

I went to go and see the show Chicago last year in June and it was the most fun I've had. I went with my boyfriend at the time and he had gotten the tickets for me for my birthday. It was my favorite play and I was so excited to go and see it. It was filled with song and dance; murder and passion. Those tickets weren't very expensive at all and we didn't have the best of seat, but no matter where you were sitting, it was a good seat and you were able to see, hear, and enjoy everything that was going on.

There are times when you can even go stand in line and wait to buy tickets that weren't sold for about half the price. There is just one problem with those tickets and that is, you have to get in line about three or four hours before the show actually goes on and there are times where there are only about twenty tickets sold so you need to get there first. It can be worth the wait and the time spent there because you can wind up getting those tickets and have the best time and can even fall in love with your favorite show and want to go and see it again. Maybe this time is would be worth spending a little chunk of change for tickets.

No matter if you know of the show or not, you will have a good time watching and enjoying the music and the excitement, sadness, happiness, and the comical gestures being made throughout the play. It is always a good time and being in New York City is just an amazing time its self.

New York City

Hi my name is Samantha and I am going to be blogging about New York City. Many people like to go and visit the "Big Apple" but most of the time people like to have a bugget. There are an endless number of things to do it New York City. There is shopping, dining, shows, concerts, Broadway plays, and more. I will be talking about how you can go and take a fun filled trip to New York and have a good time with out maxing out your credit card or emptying your wallet.

I will start by saying that no matter what you want to do there is a downsized way of doing them. Even though everyone wants the top of the line, name brand pocketbooks and jewlery, you can get the same things for a fraction of the price. Many teenagers like to go to the city with groups of friends and if they're parents aren't fishing out money, they may not have much to work with. I will be able to talk about things that teens can do as well as adults and children. There are many, many different things to do and also depending on the season such as, in the winter there is public ice skating for everyone of all ages and gender.

I have so much fun everytime I go to New York City no matter who I am with. I can go with my family, my friends, teamates, and it will always be a blast.

New york City and all of the billboards...and many people.
