PNC Bank Arts Center

Gotta get lawn seating for summer shows. If the show is not sold out you can upgrade your seat. Lawn is though nice at night concerts under the moon and stars. Nice breezes too. Only sand chairs allowed they will hold your other chairs if you bring any other kind of chair.

Ohhh, the Arts Center. It should be called the Farts Center because that's what it looks, feels, and sounds like.

If you've been to an amphitheater such as BB&T in Camden, the Mann in Philly, or anywhere else in the state or country, you will probably be expecting an identical experience. Nope. The lawn is completely dirt, very steep and bumpy. The seats are faded and sad looking. Parking is HORRENDOUS, as is leaving. Good luck getting home if you have to take the Parkway southbound. They will force you to get on North with everyone else and turn around, which is about a 5 mile crawl on the Parkway to the first exit. Finally, the sound quality is amazing. Amazingly terrible for such a historic venue! No idea what they're doing wrong but I just think sound should be a priority for a music venue. The whole mix sounded muffled, and from reading other reviews, it wasn't a one time error, this is how they always are.

PNC needs to clean up or sell to someone who will.

I saw Disturbed here this weekend. First, let me say this: I had lawn seats. I know what to expect, I've been to at least 20 shows at what used to be the Tweeter Center in Camden (whatever it's called now)...so coming into PNC, I'm expecting somewhat of a similar experience. NOPE.
Sound quality was GOD AWFUL. I could barely hear the drums and the guitar lines, yet somehow the singer's voice carried through just fine.
The band before was the complete opposite! Could not hear the singer for the life of me, but the rest of the band was louder.
Not loud, make no mistake, none of this was NEARLY as loud as it should have been for a rock show.
GARBAGE ACOUSTICS.
And as mentioned by others, parking is a disaster.

Use to be a very nice place. Over the years I have watched it go from a nice venue to a dump. The same building (identical in architecture- -built by same company) in Saratoga, NY. That is still in pristine condition. Again & again we see the decline in life in NJ. Everywhere you look, the state is becoming overrun with "White Trash". & "Neanderthal Cretans". Once the real estate market shows a heartbeat, I am packed & ready to go. Last one out of the state- - - turn out the lights.....& watch as the PNC Arts Ctr. gets bought down by the wrecking ball. The state took every dime & never reinvested a penny. "Ahhhhh----Life in the Garden State". If Christie gets the VP nod for Trump, he will get what he wants, "escaping the burning building of New Jersey" You think he wants to deal with the crap in this state. It will be one big Trailer Park out in Jackson.

Absolutely the worst venue I've ever been to. The bathrooms were absolutely horrendous before the show even started, while most of the staff was friendly, some where not when asked simple questions. Parking? Are you kidding me? While there were empty lots (completely empty) closer to the venue, people were forced to park a mile (literally, it was a mile) away. It appeared that if you "greased" the parking attendants Palm, you could park closer. So, it's only one star for the arts center....only i would give anything above one is if it had to do with how crappy it is..
