The full schedule will be announced the first weekend in May. Did you see THE BOSS will be playing two shows at the Garden State Arts Center? I'm planning to see Styx / Foreigner and Def Lepord / Journey. If there is an interest, I might be able to have my arm twisted to see Bruce. But, considering I didn't like his last show I went to, I think my arm would have to be twisted really hard. | ||

Yeah, next to Journey Bruce is a real stinker. | ||

Lucy, PNC Bank Arts Center in Holmdel used to be called the Garden State Arts Center before they sold out to corporate sponsorship. (Like the Brendan Byrne Arena, before it became the Continental Airlines Arena) | ||

I'm glad to see former Maplewoodian Charlap is doing his part in supporting this potentially great center. Let's do our part and go to these shows. | ||

The website shows he will be perfoming at SOPAC at 20 Valley Street.... I didn't think SOPAC was on Valley. | ||
| Pizzaz Supporter Username: Pizzaz Post Number: 3510 Registered: 11-2001 |
I think the current business offices for SOPAC might be at that location? BTW: Officially what is the address for SOPAC? | ||

The Bad Plus is a great modern jazz band. They do great covers, including Blondie's "Heart of Glass" and Nirvana's "Smells Like Team Spirit." They show up on NPR every so often. | ||

| Just The Aunt Supporter Username: Auntof13 Post Number: 4757 Registered: 1-2004 |
Oooops. I just realized the original poster said SOPAC. I thought it said the Garden State Arts Center (aka PNC Bank Arts Center). The on on the GSP. | ||
| MHD Citizen Username: Mayhewdrive Post Number: 3921 Registered: 5-2001 |
Pizzaz, According to the SOPAC website: Where is it located? The SOPAC complex is conveniently located at 1 Trenchard Place, behind the South Orange NJ Transit train platform, and the shops on Sloan Street. I wonder why it doesn't say behind BUNNY'S, which is a much more well known landmark. | ||

MHD, don't you realize that Bunny's isn't part of Bill Calabrese's vision? It's his and his alone and, God bless us - every one! - he's been re-elected term after term. I hate to think of what could happen to this, as you say, landmark business in South Orange should his "plan" be adopted by the next Village President. May I be (perhaps) the first to say that if this village elects Arthur Taylor OR Mark Rosner as village president, kiss your dreams goodbye. Taylor is an obvious supporter of Bill Calabrese as was Mark Rosner the only time he faced an election. I would vote for his re-election as trustee. I do not think he should be president. I know I'm preaching to an empty ashtray here, but I would not fully trust Mark Rosner. It's been convenient for him to dissent all of the sudden. He used to blissfully support whatever and had some unkind words for Church Street residents that didn't want to be evicted. That un-endeared him, but I still treat him with the same respect I offer every other human being on earth. Unlike most of the people who are our elected Bosses (as trustees). | ||

| Soparents Citizen Username: Soparents Post Number: 201 Registered: 5-2005 |
This is a genuine question, and if it has a obvious answer then let me know.. Is SOPAC anyway attached (wall to wall) with the railroad? Whether it is or isn't, the railroad makes a pretty large rumble when it goes on through. Have the walls been soundproofed etc? I can't imagine any music lover or theater goer is going to appreciate vibrations or noise interrupting the performances. As said, a genuine question - can anyone answer for me? | ||
| Pizzaz Supporter Username: Pizzaz Post Number: 3513 Registered: 11-2001 |
It is not attached, and the movie theatres offer a sound barrier to the performing arts stage. The stage area is closest to Trenchard Place. BTW: The facility is pretty well insulated from my personal observations. | ||

That wont stop the whole building from shaking when the 5oclock bat out of hell express shoots by or something. | ||
| Soparents Citizen Username: Soparents Post Number: 202 Registered: 5-2005 |
Thanks Pizzaz. I hadn't given it a thought until I was at cold stone with the kids yesterday and a train went through. Both asked me to get the trains to be quiet... (kids - always state the obvious but rarely offer a solution!!!!)  | ||
| jeep Citizen Username: Jeep Post Number: 84 Registered: 8-2005 |
To put this Jeff Daniels statement into perspective.... Pappion on Valley is having a dinner concert next Saturday evening Five course meal and live performance by Dave Valentine....$85.00 two shows!!! And this guy has won an Grammy. | ||
| Peter J. Watts Citizen Username: Peter_watts Post Number: 19 Registered: 3-2006 |
We need to get Dennis Quaid and the Sharks here, too. Btw, Bad Plus is a good booking. Seen them a couple times and they usually impress. | ||
| joel dranove Citizen Username: Jdranove Post Number: 383 Registered: 1-2006 |
Pizzaz, (why not pizzas? - which you serve, and quite well at that!), the reason is you committed the crime of felonious clapping at a board meeting. jd | ||
| Duck Duck Goose Citizen Username: Parkingsux Post Number: 394 Registered: 6-2005 |
Why are there so few bookings at this time. Haven't we been actively seeking showings for some time.... or is this not a complete list? | ||
| joel dranove Citizen Username: Jdranove Post Number: 389 Registered: 1-2006 |
We will have only a few bookings because we must run a several hundred thousand dollars a year deficit, according to the BOT's vision. The vision is clear. jd |
