And also, just added today:
alt-J has announced a unique concert at #ForestHillsStadium on Friday, June 15, the largest venue the band has ever headlined in North America. This performance is the only immersive sound show in the continent.
In another first for the band, the show will feature a surround speaker system enveloping the entire audience. The speakers will be used throughout the show to position sound effects mixed into a variety of the band’s material, thus creating an immersive sound experience.
The band has recently won the prestigious ‘Knights Of Illumination’ award for lighting production in an arena, which will also be featured at this show.
For this incredibly special event with guest Kamasi Washington the venue will have a general admission floor and a general admission bowl, so that fans can experience the show from every angle.
Tickets will go on sale this Friday at 10 AM Eastern at ForestHillsStadium.com!Thursday, May 4, 2017

Photos from The New York Pops Inaugural Concert at Forest Hills Stadium
Here are some photos from last night's wonderful concert at The
Stadium, with special guest star Sutton Foster. The weather really
cooperated for the Pops' first concert here at their new summer home.
The show was just terrific, a blend of classic Broadway music with pop
entertainment (everyone really got into the TV theme montage!), and even
a good dose of tap dancing!
After seeing the concert last night, I feel like we are so very lucky to have had this modern cultural treasure choose our neighborhood for its new summer home, to bring this kind of wonderful entertainment to within walking distance of where we live.
If you weren't able to make last night's show, well, the Pops are back for an encore performance tonight. I think there are some tickets still available at the Stadium's website. Trust me, you'll have a great time!
And more coverage of this and other concerts to come!
In fact, if you were at the James Taylor concert Tuesday night, please send in your photos to edgeofthecity@gmail.com I have some that I took, but they weren't the greatest shots I assure you.

Bring Pearl Jam to Forest Hills Stadium
.... their idea, not mine.
But not a bad idea! And isn't it refreshing that we should be discussing the idea of bringing Pearl Jam to Forest Hills at all? (yes, I still hold a grudge against those Stadium-haters. Can't help it!)
While we're at it, can someone please start one of these for Vampire Weekend?
