点评:I’ve seen many a show at the Music Box over the years. My husband’s Reggae band played there once, although their pay scale prevented them to play there again. I saw Dark Side of the Moon - The Pink Floyd Experience, last night, and had a very disturbing encounter.
Fist off, the band was amazing! They never disappoint - even given the awkward confines of the Music Box, such as the minuscule stage, no room to dance, poor, outdated sound system, and the inability to have their background visuals and lazars.
We chose to sit at a table toward the back far left of the stage - table #401 - one of the only tables with some room around us to dance.
The waitress for that section was visibly angry that we weren’t ordering dinner but were ordering water and drinks. She paused and stared at us for a moment, then told us she wouldn’t be serving us and that we could go get our own water and drinks at the bar! Although, several friends had tables scattered around the venue who we had dinner with earlier in the evening, whose wait staff didn’t have an issue with them not ordering dinner and served them beverages, happily. Her rudeness was beyond belief! I’m a nurse who wakes at 3:30 am, for work. Dinner time for me is no later than 5pm and that’s when I was hungry. The show wasn’t until 8 PM. I would have probably ordered appetizers at some point, but her obvious anger and refusal to serve us prevented that!
Then, when we were dancing by our table, in the meager open space - because, let’s face it, TMB are vampires when it comes to cramming more tables into a space than is humanly possible so as to eek out as much profit every square inch of real estate would allow - the wait staff, including Ms Rude, kept rushing past to serve others, barking, “excuse me!”, every time they pushed past us!
At the break we all went to the restroom and coming back, our table had been cleared of full drinks! Ms Rude blamed the bussers, and told us to go tell the bartender the bussers took our beverages. Of course they needed confirmation from Ms Rude, whom they intercepted and inquired about this event. To which she asserted, “they’re not my table but yeah, the bussers toot their drinks”.
I don’t know what her problem was, but she should have just gone and made the correction herself, in the first place since it was her busser in her station.
Do yourself a favor - if you really NEEED to see a band there, eat elsewhere! Tables around us complained the service, even when buying dinner, was abysmal, food was overpriced, and utter poo!
翻译:这些年来我在音乐盒看过很多场演出。我丈夫的雷鬼乐队曾在那里演奏过一次,尽管他们的工资水平不允许他们再次在那里演奏。昨晚我看了《月之暗面 - 平克·弗洛伊德体验》,经历了一次非常令人不安的遭遇。
拳头关闭,乐队太棒了!他们从不让人失望——即使考虑到音乐盒的尴尬限制,比如狭小的舞台、没有跳舞的空间、糟糕、过时的音响系统,以及无法拥有背景视觉效果和拉扎尔。
我们选择坐在舞台最左后方的一张桌子旁 - #401 桌 - 这是我们周围唯一有空间可以跳舞的桌子之一。
该区域的女服务员显然很生气,因为我们没有点晚餐,而是点了水和饮料。她停下来盯着我们看了一会儿,然后告诉我们她不会为我们服务,我们可以去酒吧自己喝水和饮料!尽管如此,几个朋友的桌子分散在会场周围,我们在晚上早些时候与他们共进晚餐,他们的服务员对他们不点晚餐并没有任何问题,并愉快地为他们提供了饮料。她的粗鲁令人难以置信!我是一名护士,凌晨 3:30 起床上班。我的晚餐时间不晚于下午 5 点,那时我很饿。演出一直持续到晚上八点。我可能会在某个时候点开胃菜,但她明显的愤怒和拒绝为我们服务阻止了这一点!
然后,当我们在桌子旁跳舞时,在狭小的开放空间中 - 因为,让我们面对现实吧,TMB 在将更多的桌子塞进一个空间中而不是人类所能做到的方面是吸血鬼,以便在每一平方英寸中谋求尽可能多的利润房地产允许的 - 服务员,包括鲁德女士,每次从我们身边推过去时,都会冲过去为其他人服务,大声喊道,“对不起!”!
休息时,我们都去了洗手间,回来时,我们的桌子上已经没有饮料了!鲁德女士责怪了那些公交车司机,并让我们去告诉调酒师,公交车司机拿走了我们的饮料。当然,他们需要得到鲁德女士的确认,他们拦截了她并询问了这件事。她断言,“他们不是我的桌子,但是,是的,服务员们把饮料倒掉了”。
我不知道她的问题是什么,但她应该自己去纠正,因为这是她车站的公交车司机。
帮自己一个忙——如果你真的需要在那里看乐队,那就去别的地方吃饭吧!我们周围的桌子抱怨服务很糟糕,即使在买晚餐时也是如此,食物价格过高,而且很糟糕!
