Forest Hills Stadium

Forums:

I may go see King Gizzard in August at Forest Hills Stadium. I have never been. What's scoop on that place?  Easy to get to from the airport? 

It's a most pleasant venue. Not far from LGA airport . Subway stop is right there. Surrounded by a residential neighborhood that's not entirely thrilled about the venue.  
As a result, the volume level is nice if nobody is talking or singing along out of tune.  There is usually a curfew.   Every time I have been there it's been lovely. 
Saw a king Gizzard show last year.  3 hour marathon set in the rain. 
I'm looking forward to Big Thief in October! 

The promoter's agreement to get permits for concerts at Forest Hills states a 10:00 curfew. Also the promoter has to hire private security to patrol the local neighborhood. They must also  adhere to a certain noise level. But it is a good venue, and as mentioned, easily walkable from the subway. The E,F,M, and R subways stop at Forest Hills, and they add extra cars when concerts end.

Thanks for the info. I am going to book my flight while it is still on the cheaper side. This will be fun, I have never been to NYC. Is there pizza and a dispensary in the area?

according to google there are plenty of options for both. 

Concert ticket and round trip flight from Atlanta for 225. I looked at driving up to bonnaroo for 1 day to see KGLW and it was 250 for a 1 day ticket and 2 tanks of gas in the car.

Looks like you need to go to Manhattan or the Bronx if you want one-stop shopping for pizza and bud.

Forest Hills and KGLW+Orch. 

You have a couple winners.

I've got a Phil pennant from there

Seldom do places really resonate with me or stick in my memory but I so much remember feeling like we left New York City while still being in the heart of it all
