Elton John and his band put on an outstanding show in spite of this out-dated venue. I wondered why at 8pm there were so many empty seats even though it was a sold out concert. Then this morning we found out the patrons were in long lines outside just to go through the security process. Unacceptable!

Never seen worse entry to a concert. Total chaos! Guess this is how they do it in the south.

Savannah Civic Center was a very roomy and enjoyable place to be. We were there with our daughter for SCAD orientation, which was very organized!
