Hearst Greek Theater
This Greek-styled outdoor amphitheatre is the loveliest place
in the Bay Area to see a musical per formance. The tiered concrete seating and immense
stage has capacity for 8,000 fans under an open sky . Having once sat in the last r ow, I
can attest that all seats ar e good, and the acoustics superb . It gets cold at night, though,
so bring jackets. Death Cab for Cutie, R.E.M., Steely Dan, James Taylor, and the Dave
Matthews Band were among the r ecent performers.
