I haven't been to Shoreline in years. Parking always sucked there. Mercado is no different, WAY too little parking for the number of seats available in the theater. The Great Mall now has the best calibrated sound systems around here, so we tend to go there.

Center, about 2/3 of the way up. It's been about five years since I've been, though.

Normally, I'm slightly off center, on the floor, about 12 feet from...my TV. Gotta love the home "theater." (On the floor for snacks, and sharing with the pooch.)
Wow Adam always taking care of the pooch. I am sure she appreciates that kind of dedication. Maybe one day she can return the favor my friend. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Phil

Dead center... absolute worst seats are in the front. This is true even for symphony, theater and (especially) opera performances.

At the Drafthouse Lake Creek, you get punished for it, too. LOUD *** bright centers directly in your ear. I saw The Dark Knight there. I thought I was going to need ear surgery. It was loud, high pitched and painful.

I'll definitely take the center seats. (J. Garcia, I remember many times waiting in line at the Mercado and the Shoreline amphitheater as well as that complex in Union City only to have to sit on the sides or in the back and cuss because everything was off axis.)
Hmmmmmm interesting point. The center is where it is at. But sometimes, other people be you to it. Then, at that point it is all about compromise. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Phil
