Music Legends Live

Posted by GuyFriday on March 5th, 2012 under Holidays Tags: , ,  •  No Comments

The biggest legends in music have performed and continue to perform at New York’s Jones Beach Theatre. For 80 years this amphitheater has housed everything from Guy Lombardo, to plays, operas, rock and roll, reggae and hip hop music.

All The Stars Aren’t In Hollywood Or In The Sky

Legends in music are those names that are recognized by young and old alike. One of those legends, Neil Diamond will be appearing on this very stage this year. Country legend George Jones, The Possum, has appeared on this stage as well, and is almost as old as the amphitheater itself. Ringo Starr, former Beatles drummer, will be bringing his band to this New York theatre in 2012, too.

Nothing Changes Like The Times

There have been more stars that have appeared on the stage of this theater than one could ever imagine. So popular were the shows that the original seating of 8200 has increased through the years not once but twice; to 11,200 and then to its current 15,000 seats. But the current owners, Nikon, didn’t stop there. They built the additional Bay Stage with a mere 5000 seating capacity.
New York has long been famous for celebrity sightings; it is in fact were many legends live.
