Ziggy Marley - Manship Theater

Got to go see Ziggy last night at Manship Theater and it was a very good show. I was in awe of the venue I had been wanting to check out for some time. I am not a huge reggae fan, but I love the groove and the message. I could not have had more fun. I will be watching for more shows at Manship and will go back. The band came out to the streets and kinda hung out with us for a while after. Ziggy took off to the Varsity for a impromptu visit there. Was anybody else at the show last night and/or who got to see him at the Varsity after? 
PS: After finally seeing a show at Manship, I am now even more pissed I missed Gregg Allman there a couple years ago.

Manship is a pretty awesome spot. It's just small. Ziggy puts on a fun show. Not necessarily something I'm going to put forth an effort to see again but a very positive show.
Good vibez, mon

BR has coma a long way. Downtown is a cool area now in lieu of being shady and dead. Manship is small, acoustics are good and it's easy access.

have you been? it rivals any smaller theatre i've been to. the acoustics are really good and the seating is comfortable. not a bad seat in the house.
the total seating is 325

I wouldve love to seen ziggy again, i wanted to take my 4 year old daughter, but tickets were way too expensive imo. Thats the downside of such a small venue.

I saw Lindsey Buckingham there in 2012 and sat in the couple of chairs that are on the side and it was amazing. Did a meet and greet as well. It's a great venue....for BR.

It's a great venue, but Manship does a piss-poor job of advertising which artists are going to be performing.
You would think the name "Marley" would be big enough to warrant advertising at least a few months in advance of the show, but I didn't know about it until this week.
A couple of years ago one of the premier female jazz vocalists in the country--Jane Monheit--couldn't sell out 700 seats over two shows because there was absolutely no advertising.
I never knew Gregg Allman was playing.
However, it seems like Manship advertised the appearance of Audra McDonald for almost a year--she was on billboards, buses, tv, radio--everywhere. I bet she sold out 700 seats.
