My son just finished a week of camp here. They offer a lot of options for all interests, but he…read moreselected Rock 101. It far exceeded my expectations! The camp is well organized. The door locks and the building is secure. The staff was friendly at every single pick up and drop off. I enjoyed their quick intro and tour on the first day, but this week wasn't about me. My kiddo is not a fan of most day camps (or kid jails in his words). However, when I picked him up on the first day, he talked all the way home. I said it sounds like this one was one of your camps ever. He said, no - it was the best ever! That excitement continued the entire week. He wasn't sure he would want to do the performance on Friday, but when the time came, he was up on stage as confident and comfortable as I'd have ever seen him. He rocked it. So thankful for this camp and looking forward to his lessons starting soon.

Our 15 yo daughter Tess joined SOR Alpharetta when it first opened over a year ago. It was one of…read morethe best experiences of her life. She was selected to participate in House Band and met incredible, music-loving friends. House Band performed at venues all over Atlanta. The highlight of the season was performing at The Masquerade in downtown Atlanta! Darek, Shannon, Stacey and Richard are the owners. They have created a welcoming community for kids to learn and perform music, as well as make lifelong friends! The teachers employed by SOR are enthusiastic and supportive. Our family highly recommends the Alpharetta SOR!

My rating is based on the overall quality of the festival, not in comparison to other festivals in…read morethe city. My family and I love festivals, who wants to sit in front of the luvvly-jubbly telly eating a bag of crisps and dip all day? Well the Spring Festival On Ponce is totally Ace, just trying to park here makes you bloody gutted, so if you are coming here the best place to park is somewhere near Blue Ridge Ave NW. Which is behind the publix off Ponce, yes it might be a little walk, but if you are coming to a festival, you probably fancy a good walk. So what was here? First, lets start off with the awesome Yelp table that the super dope community manager Benjamin G was at, now lets continue with the review. [ Art ] There are a lot of tents full of locals and quite a few out of town designers. They sell all sorts of hip items, oil paintings, even art made from dirt, metal statues for the garden, bird houses, paper butterflies, hand bags and wallets made from recycled car seats and seat belts, jewelry and there was even a couple who makes candles that when they melt, they contain minerals that can be used as a lotion to smooth the epidermis on the skin. There was also an artist from Virginia, by the name of David Schmitzer. He was drawing sketch portraits that take only about 10-15 minutes and is extremely talented. Hopefully he visits Atlanta more often. If you see him around town, I'd highly recommend having him draw a portrait of you, or your family members. He is bloody good! [ Food/Munch ] I was not able to checkout all of the stands, but there were quite a lot and the selections were a lot healthier than other festivals we have been to in the past. I really was pleased with that. Our previous festival we attended was selling deep fried twinkles and oreo cookies, now that's naff and makes you want to chunder!!! How can you miss the King of Pops? Always a delight! [ Entertainment ] I saw a few people playing muzik and there were inflatable bouncers for the kiddies and they were having a blast. The inflatable bouncers were about $2 per ride, or for $25 bucks the kids could bounce their way to Spártā. [ Crowd ] Lots of wickedly cool folks, plenty of tents, cool tats, lots of kids. [ Conclusion ] This was our first year attending and definitely will not be our last. If you live near by, or even over a hour away, you should come on down and enjoy the Spring Festival On Ponce!

We attended the Saturday performance of Beethoven's 9th Symphony in October…read more We ended up parking at Colony Square's underground deck (which is only about a block away) since we had dinner there. When you arrive at Symphony Hall, they do not seat you until 30 minutes prior to the start time of the performance. We got seated in shortly after they opened the hall. The performance format was standard - a couple of filler offerings up front (maybe we can just forego any 'premiers' of anything from the past 50 - 60 years to save time?) and an intermission.. And then, the 9th. I had never heard this 'live' before. It was an experience to savor and remember! In addition, they had a new conductor (Natalie ???). I do not care if the conductor is male / female/ other / robot / etc., as long as the music is good - and it was very good this evening! The orchestra receive a long (and deserved) standing ovation! I have seen probably 20 or more ASO performances over the years. I think they do good work, but am not a regular member. If you choose a work that you truly enjoy, I definitely recommend this.

I'm a start off by saying the event was in Atlanta and at night so parking was slightly a challenge…read morefortunately we found the parking deck and parking was $25 dollars. The Symphony Hall is very spacious and clean. Also, very organized we were greeted and helped to our seats as some on as we entered. Seating is comfortable and the forum we were in was nice and intimate. I saw Brian Culbertson for the first time a few months ago and became an instant fan. He's an amazing jazz musician and I would definitely come back here for him or any interesting events they may host. Anyhoo check out Brian in my video and until next time SYOY!

Note for anyone navigating: this is Gwinnett Field now. The Coolray naming rights lapsed after last…read moreseason, so older listings and your GPS may still say Coolray Field. We're four-year season ticket holders -- four seats, front row on the first base line, about five feet up from home plate. Not square behind the plate, but close enough that it doesn't matter. Excellent seats and a real value for what they cost. We don't always fill all four; when it's just us we spread out, and when we want company we bring people. Since nobody ever posts actual numbers: our package runs about $1,800 for 20 games, four seats, front row. That's roughly $22.50 per seat per game for the best sightline in the park, and they let you spread it across nine $200 monthly payments leading into the season, which is what makes it fit a normal budget instead of requiring a lump sum. Shade, because this is Georgia and it matters: our seats are shaded about 90% of the time. Sunday afternoon games get sun for the first thirty minutes or so -- we either move back three or four rows if they're empty and wait it out, or stand on the concourse until ours go shady. That's the whole workaround. Anyone buying summer tickets should ask specifically about their section, because the answer is the difference between a pleasant evening and a miserable one. Parking: free with a season ticket package, $9 otherwise, which is reasonable for a night out. One request: give season ticket holders a dash pass or hangtag instead of making us pull up a Ticketmaster scan at the gate. The scan holds up the line every single time. Concessions: solid ballpark food, and that's both the compliment and the limitation. If you don't want fried food, a burger, or a hot dog, you're stuck. It wouldn't take much to fix -- vac-packed pickles, whole fruit, hummus with carrots, a bag of chips -- and it would make a real difference for anyone eating at the park three times a week. Know this going in: the stands are staffed by high school volunteers, and the tips go back to their programs. I'm all for it. But the lines are slow, the volunteers are often confused, and they can't serve beer or canned drinks without calling an adult over. That's a fine trade for supporting kids' programs -- just budget the time and don't get impatient with a teenager. One more wish, and it's a real one: let people bring empty bottles in and fill them inside. I'd happily pay to slot my Hydro Flask into a filling station rather than buy another plastic bottle of Dasani every game. Over a twenty-game season that adds up to a lot of single-use plastic for a park that doesn't have to generate it. The season ticket package earns its keep beyond the seats, too: priority entrance, priority concession lines, and 20% off merch at the team shop. We have absolutely taken advantage of that last one more than once. Chopper is the best mascot in the league and it isn't close. Nobody does non-verbal crowd work better. The one real gripe: four account reps in four years, with no warning between changeovers, and every one has meant starting over. I'm a wedding photographer -- I work Saturdays, so Saturday games don't work for us. Explaining that from scratch to a fourth stranger gets old. Whatever's driving that turnover, it's the weak spot in an otherwise well-run operation. And I'll say this plainly, because it's part of why we renew: I like what this organization chooses to celebrate. The Georgia Peaches weekends, run as an explicit tribute to the women's league. The Copa de la Diversión games as the Xolos de Gwinnett. Pride Night, which reliably annoys exactly the people you'd expect it to annoy, and which they run anyway. A ballclub willing to take that heat and not blink has my money. The seats are great, the atmosphere is great, we've got favorite players (Sandy the catcher, forever), and you regularly get to watch Braves on rehab assignments from thirty feet away. That's the whole argument for Triple-A ball, and Gwinnett Field delivers it.

Oklahoma! had five showings during the weekend (January 6-9, 2011) and is part of the 2010-11 Gas South Broadway Series. This version was scaled down and featured a young cast of 19 actors and actresses. The sets were smaller and the orchestra consisted only of a keyboardist and percussionist. The entire show consisted of two acts with an intermission in between (not exactly in the middle) and lasted almost 3 hours. There were many empty seats in the 2,700+ seat venue. So many, in fact, that the ushers allowed us to move down to get a better view of the stage. I'm not a big fan of musicals and I'm certainly not an expert on them, but I did think the actors and actresses did a very good job in both singing and acting. They really got the turn-of-the-century Oklahoman accents and mannerisms down. The story and dialogue were quite funny at times. I enjoyed the music and the theater's sound system was good. My favorite songs were "Oh, What a Beautiful Mornin'," and "Oklahoma!" As mentioned previously, the sets were small. They consisted no more of a couple houses and a few props, really. The wardrobe was nice. Overall, I had a good time and wouldn't mind seeing more of Gas South's Broadway Series. #Yelp365 - 10/365

Nice chairs, pretty wooden paneling, a descending orchestra box on stage. Props to this school for investing in their arts program! If I were to improve anything, I would recommend selling concessions before and after the show, since some of us were hungry/thirsty and couldn't do much about it- it would be a great alternative revenue source for them too.
