The Boston Symphony Orchestra has long been considered one of the world’s leading orchestras, and it is revered here in the
A little-known secret is that there is an endowed program that sets aside a certain number of seats for selected performances, and those seats are made available as “Rush Tickets” at a greatly reduced price. Rush seats are available for Tuesday evening, Thursday evening and Friday afternoon performances. For Rush Tickets, the ticket window inside Symphony Hall on the corner of
I have taken advantage of this opportunity several times in the past few months, and have experiences some wonderful music – Mozart, Haydn, Sibelius, Debussy. It is my observation that not all the rush seats are used for each concert, so I am not afraid that by sharing this information I will be killing the goose that lays the golden egg! Prior to each concert, ticket holders are invited to attend a free pre-concert lecture that describes in detail the upcoming musical program.
Check out the BSO Website for upcoming concerts.
I look forward to seeing you in the Rush Ticket line for a future concert!
Enjoy!

Yes, the rush tickets are a great thing AL, although my one rush story did not turn out so successfully. As you can imagine, getting to the BSO for 9am on a Friday is a near impossibility for me, but I did it! The line was out the door at 8:45 and they only give out 100 seats. The tickets sold out four people in front of me! I haven't been back to try my luck, but if I do, I'll be there extra early!
Long live the BSO!
The VA Hospital in Tampa, Fl. is the busiest in the nation. You would think that someone would have strong oversight over such a large institution. Believe me, no one is. The government takes advantages of the med students from the University of South Florida (a good med school)in good numbers but can not seem to take advantage of the newest knowledge in medicine and medical care they bring with them.
A few months ago, the hospital was forced to close their operating rooms due to an investation of flies. You can not make this stuff up.
There are veterans who must wait up to a year or more to get in to see anyone. Specialty needs are sent to the doctors at the clinics at USF.
I know people who have done their residencies there and they have no good stories to tell.
It is bad enough that we send these patriotic and brave folks into war areas that we have no business being in do not give them the right equipmetnt or supplies to complete their jobs.Is there a direct correlation between that issue and the number of dead and wounded. Are we so amoral as a nation that we neglect them when they arrive home in dire need? Sadly, the answer is yes.
I lost my father at a relatively young age due to deseases and problems that were a direct result of him fighting in WWII. I will lose my younger brother an age too premature for leaving this world. Enough is enough! Everytime I drive by the VA in Tampa, my skin crawls knowing the neglect that is taking place there.
We can do better than that and offer you Concerts Tickets at the cheapest prices in the market. So please check out our Rush Tickets and book them now.
