This is the 3rd show ive seen at the riverside. Its always a great time. This time I was sent out a side exit but I wanted to hit the merchandise table before I left and one of the event staff nicely let me back in. Every time ive been to this place its been wonderful. This time I got to see Kurtis Conner, who ive been a fan of as long as ive been married. It was a wonderful show with the most diverse audience in terms of age range ive ever seen. Thanks Riverside for hosting his show.

I love the Riverside for music performances (along with the Pabst). It's big enough to host very talented/popular performances and small enough to call intimate. The fact that it is vintage, built in 1928 only adds to the charge. From the outside marquee to the carved staircase railings, it exudes style and grace.
It's easy to enter with multiple doors. One is door is dedicated for will call. You can quickly get through security and ticket check. Once inside you are immediately in front of several bars areas. Merchandise for sale in straight ahead.
Came here for another concert, Swell Season. Got tickets on the Balcony, frist row, which in my opinion are the very best seats in the house. An elevated view, without any obstructions. And the short wall in front makes a great spot to put your drinks.
I shy away from the bigger venues, and always look to the Riverside (and Pabst) for my music performances.
