Since the 1980's, they have done quite a bit of renovation to this almost 100 year old venue. I was like most folks as we entered the facility and kept looking around at everything. Staff was welcoming and helpful as I got our "will call" tickets and found our seats for the concert. Such an awesome facility, restored to showcase the design of the 1920s. I enjoyed the concert, but enjoyed returning to this gem in Greensboro.

This place has one of the worst vibes I've experienced going out. The energy is completely off, the…read morestaff is dismissive, and it feels like they don't want anyone there unless you're somehow benefiting them. They clearly try to come across as upscale, but it's all very forced a wannabe high-end atmosphere that falls flat. The music was mid at best, the crowd felt awkward and unwelcoming, and the whole atmosphere was chaotic in a bad way. On top of that, the place is fucking dirty, which just adds to the overall uncomfortable vibe. Nothing about this place makes you want to stay, it's uncomfortable, overpriced for what it is, and honestly just not fun. The pretentious vibe and lack of real hospitality make it clear they're more concerned with image than actually providing a good experience. There are way better options nearby. Would not come back and wouldn't recommend to anyone looking for a good night out.

This place had all what I was looking for. I sat at the bar and Stephanie the bartender was great, she interacted with me & was very friendly! Stephanie checked on me frequently & made sure my glass was never empty! Also the owner introduced himself and was also very courteous & friendly. My only complaint was the having to pay separate vendors. I paid the door $10 upon arrival, a hookah girl separately, the food vendor & lastly the bartender. Overall great staff & good vibes! The DJ was definitely playing good music to set the vibe! I will be back again if I'm ever in area again!

Even the parking garage attendant was great asked if we had been and directed us on where to go since it was our first time. It was a quick walk through a park which was lovely and also had some directions along the way. Once we got to Tanger the attendants inside directed us on where to go and everything was very smooth to get in. The front entrance was crowded since it is a smaller venue but once we got upstairs all the same services were available for drinks and snacks and there were not a lot of patrons around yet. I was a little confused as to where to go at first but again the attendants were very helpful and showed us how to get to our seats. Our seats were good too I feel there isn't a bad seat in the house with how the center is set up. I will totally be back when there is an event that doesn't come closer to me.

The Performing Arts Center hosts many events, from the Greensboro Symphony Orchestra to touring Broadway shows, concerts, comedy shows and discussions. The Tanger Center has a parking lot available for performances, and there is street parking and a few nearby parking garages. With Greensboro taking down two garages, it might be a little more challenging to find a space. When you arrive, ticket scanning and a security check are first. I am glad they finally clarified the bag policy to just one rather than three different policies. Phillips Hall is impressive with its high ceilings (3 stories) and a large glass window. It is 8,000 square feet and has porcelain staircases on both sides and elevators in the center. The concessions are in front of the window and under the stairs, so it is a shame that the architectural view is blocked. There are high-top tables in the center for your food and beverages. But I do not remember seeing any seating with the tables. The women's restroom on the first floor is large, with many stalls, extending from one side of the theatre to the other. I like that you can also see whether they are occupied or vacant. Staff have been very pleasant and helpful, from finding where you need to be seated to the Prelude Dining before performances. Seating is on three levels; the orchestra and the Grand Tier can be entered from the main level. The Loge is the balcony on the third level, and elevators are available from the lobby. I've had tickets for the orchestra in various sections, the grand tier and the grand tier boxes and learned where I prefer. It is also very easy to leave after the performances with multiple exits. The Tanger Center is a great addition to Downtown Greensboro that knows how to handle large-scale events.

It was fun and the guests were quite lively and got into it!

We checked in when we arrived, we're given a. Table assignment and brought to the dining room. There was a full service cash bar serving anything you could need and an appetizer buffet. We got some drinks, and snacks for the buffet (cheeses, veggies, cheesy tater tots fried onion pedals) sat at our table and mingled with the other seated at our table. Actors performed within the room as we ate our 4 courses, and it quickly became unclear who was part of the show and who was just dining. It seemed there were actors planted at the tables, or where there??? The whole thing was well scripted, funny and made for an enjoyable evening. The food was delicious, I'd compare it to a nice wedding meal. Pricing may be a bit much for some, but it makes for a fun evening. I don't want to say too much and spoil anything, but I will say it was fun!

In the '90s I worked at a bar & grille downtown. It was full of entertaining moments most days, but…read moreamong the best were during Fun Fourth, when so many who otherwise never would have come there would file in all day to avoid the heat and their kids (the kiddie area of the festival was across the street). The bar comfortably accommodated about 40 people and most nights wouldn't see more than 20 at a time, but would have a steady population of around 60-70 on the 4th. These were the days before Natty Greene's, when any other day of the year one could lie in the middle of the street at 8 pm and not worry about cars. This particular day was like most Fourths, but got interesting later in the night, when Johnny Van Zant walked in. Lynyrd Skynyrd had played that day down the block from the bar and late in the evening this hayseed came in, sat at the bar and asked for a Budweiser. At first, I had no clue whom he was, so I mocked him for asking a 14 year old to serve him a beer. Eventually, he was served and after a few bemulleted congratulated him on a good set, I realized it was Van Zant, who had taken over vocal duties for this hemorrhoid on the asshole of southern rock after his brother's plane wrapped itself around a tree. I disregarded him for an hour as he got progressively drunker, but he couldn't stand being ignored. Primarily, the bar was a black purlieu, making good ol' Johnny's next few statements all the more sage, and hilarious. Upon spotting one of the Malcolm X shirts that were so popular at the time, with "It's a black thing. You wouldn't understand" printed on the back, he began with a description of his big idea to make money (was his band doing so poorly?). "Wanna know my idea fer a milyun dollar bizness? T-shirts." His speech was already slurred as he answered his own question without giving me the chance. "You know how they got their shirts?" he said, ever louder, "The ones that say 'It's a black thing. You wouldn't understand'?" I knew what was coming, yet he continued. "Well, I got an idea for shirts for us!" He paused several seconds, allowing me time to catch up to his intellect before he delivered his payoff. "It's a WHITE thing. YOU wouldn't understand," he blurted out while pointing an angry finger at no one. "Yeah, I think you're a little late there. I've seen those." "And d'you know how they got their X? We'd have our X. A rebel flag!" "I'm telling you, man, they already sell those." "Well, I ain't never seen one." I have never been to a Lynyrd Skynyrd show, but it would be difficult to convince me that vendors didn't sell these t-shirts at every one of them in the '90s, or now, in fact. Rednecks are notoriously behind the times. At some point during the hick's pitch, a trailer-park blonde had stumbled in, already drunk. She sat a few seats down from Johnny Too Bad and demanded a beer. Upon informing yet another rocket scientist that I was too young to serve, she began a lengthy diatribe about how I shouldn't be working there if I couldn't fetch her beer. I asked someone else to get it, and she asked for a few case quarters. She spent several minutes doing the Axl Rose sway in front of the jukebox while trying to decide on a song, and then suddenly she stamped her feet and exclaimed, "There ain't a god-damned thing on here worth playing!" "You don't like 'Mr. Bojangles'?" I asked. "I don't see- Oh." So she chose some Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and some contemporary country that had never been played, and returned to her seat for most of her first selection before heading to the restroom. Moments later, she cracked the restroom door and yelled, "Y'all ain't got no damned toilet paper in here! I gotta drip my ass dry?" A co-worker took a whole 8-roll pack to her. I like "Mr. Bojangles"; it's a decent enough song. But after it finished, while she was still drying out, her next song began. I don't know what it was. I'll just assume Garth Brooks or Alan Jackson. It was one of those typical, "Why'd that truck driver not take a rest the night Junior was coming home from the war and driving to meet his daughter for the first time at Christmas?" songs. So I turned the volume way the fuck down before she returned. She took her seat and nursed the bottle for a while, until, "Can't that thing get any louder? I can't hear my god-damned song!" "Yeah. Let's see- " and I pretended to turn it up for her. "How's that?" "Still can't hear it." "Hmm... I don't think it goes much higher, but I'll try," and this time I nudged the switch slightly. "That's as high as it goes. Must be the record." "Well, God damn. I still can't hear nothin'." "Yeah, I'm sorry." She finished her beer as the song faded to an end, and then she walked toward the exit as one of my favorites, Clarence Carter's "Slip Away", began to play. I cranked the volume good and loud just in time for her to slip away herself, with such grace, flipping me off and cursing as she stormed out the door. I love America.
