I'm 54 years old, live in Minnesota love music and just happened to find out on Facebook Accept ( my absolutely favorite band) was playing the Arcada, I found one ticket fairly close to the stage so I bought it, while surfing they're website, I was astounded to see some of the acts that play there. I work all genres of musical concerts in Minneapolis and Saint Paul, and I attend over 100 shows a year, (usually within the 1st 5 rows. Well two days before the show, I spotted 2 tickets even closer and bought them, waited very patiently, wondering how on earth Ron and the Arcada Theatre pulled Accept in, one of only a couple North American dates. Well we hit the road and 6 hours later we pulled up, no problem parking at all and it was free,, ok, great, loved the Atmosphere as we entered , now I had 3 tix at will call and wonderfully, I was refunded one of my tickets (AWESOME) so I bought 2 Accept Shirts and an Arcada one, other than the sad fact I didnt see an email saying a meet and greet pass ( I inquired about one) was there for me until the next day when I got home, I met Ron, and wow,, what a class act man, I prefer the smaller more intimate venues, and Ron suggested the VIP package, and I'll tell ya, 12 hours round trip (to me) is worth a great show, band and experience, music is my life. When I saw Nazareth was coming there,,,, OMG I wish we weren't so close to the holidays, I'd buy that VIP, and prbably attend 15, 20,25 shows a year there. I've told about every person I know about The Arcada and my INCREDIBLE experience with this place. Cant wait to road trip again, it's like 3 concerts for me, 6 hours of rockin tunes each way and a concert I'll remember for life, I've seen Pink Floyd, McCartney, Monsters of Rock in England, Queen, Kiss and many others, and I look forward to hopefully getting that VIP and continue attending. On a scale from 1 to 10, I give The Arcada a 100, and Accept,,,, see you in Pennsylvania, already have my ticket
