What Happened? – I loved having an outdoor music venue in the area... It put our fine, beautiful city on the tour route... To actually complain about the parking is ridiculous... i've gone to concerts since I was 6 years old, starting with the Beatles in Dallas in "62... As an adult music lover, i went to many concerts at Verizon, absolutely thrilled that my city had such a great place to go for great live music, regardless of a few trivial negatives ..To.see Aerosmith & ZZ Top I had to go to Houston... I thought our Verizon... read more
great venue site – since moving to san antonio a year ago, we have attended several concerts at this venue. we have enjoyed all the concerts, journey, cheap trick, foreigner, average white band, etc. i was disappointed to hear the amphitheater is up for sale and will defintely not be used as a concert site. although traffic is a problem at the site as is parking, trying to go to the at and t center or the alamodome downtown would be even worse. downtown is bad enough and parking for the alamodome is not much better. the pric... read more
Journey, Heart, Cheap Trick>>> Selma July 25, 2008 – There is a serious problem with parking at this venue, it made for an interesting night. Someone should open up the race track parking next door to make it easier on concert goers. Once in the venue, we caught a brief glimpse of Cheap Trick they sounded pretty good. Heart put on an excellent show. The highlight of the night was during their encore, Heart played the Who's "Love Reign O'er Me". Nancy Wilson is still one of the best guitarists in the Rock N Roll business (mal... read more
Heart, Journey, Cheap Trick Concert July 25, 2008 – I've been going to see concerts at this site for years. Everytime we have gone it has been great. Sorry to say that I might not ever want to go back to this place to see a concert again. Everytime we have gone we have had traffic, or parking problems. On this day it was about 6:30 and we were exiting at the Selma Exit which is about 1.5 to 2 miles from the concert site. The concert started at 7:00. When 7:45 came around we thought something bad happened. We called The Ampit... read more
They just can't get it right.... – This place has got to be my least favorite concert venue of all time. Let's review: -Access: All traffic is funnelled into one entrance. We got to the show late and it still took us 20-30 minutes to go about a half mile to the parking lot. I know a small shortcut or it would've been longer. -Parking: After going in one entrance they park everyone in a field and you still have to walk quite a ways to get to the ampitheater... which has ONE entrance. -Beer: $9 a pop for Budwieser? Somebody's ... read more
A total ripoff - won't be coming back! – I have to go with everything the guy below me said. This is just a horrible rip off. I bought tickets for my husband and me to see Journey/Heart/Cheap Trick. We sat is traffic for two hours just to drive two miles to get in to the venue. There is only one lane in to this place that they let you know about if you are from out of town. We are from Austin. Needless to say, we missed Heart and Cheap Trick. Journey was great. But, honestly we have scratched this dump from the list. It is m... read more
This venue was the worse planned development I have ever seen and I am a member of the American Planning Association – It was my first time to go to the amphitheater and I really tried to make this a nice concert with the wife and her friend but it was doomed for failure because of the the Verizon Wirless Amphitheater traffic handling and parking. We bought three tickets in Section 305 which is the farthest section from the stage that still has sit down chairs. Total for the tickets was $350 which I thought was too expensive... read more
Finally, San Antonio makes it onto major-tour schedules. – The Skinny San Antonio music fans now save on gas money since there's no need to drive to Houston or Austin for large stadium tours, thanks to the newest music venue in town--even if the ZIP code technically places the stadium in Selma. The Crowds There are 8,000 reserved seats under a covering and room for 12,000 on the grass-covered incline. Unlike the amphitheater, the streets around Selma weren't designed to accommodate massive traffic. Congestion around Retama P... read more
Great facility,but HORRIBLE parking – Once I got to the concert, I loved it. You never felt too crowded. Of course everything costs too much, but you expect that. Here is the problem. Every good concert is going to have a wait in the parking lot, but after Aerosmith, not only did it take 45 minutes just to get to the road, but there were some exits that were blocked on purpose! Either get enough people to direct the traffic from each exit, or wait until the roads live up to the facility.
