3 strikes @ Meadowbrook
I don't care who is performing, I will never attend another show at Meadowbrook. The management couldn't care less about music. It's all about squeezing every last dime out of patrons. If I wanted a carnival atmosphere - vendors hawking beer, t-shirts, tractors, etc. - I'd go to Fryeburg Fair. On our last visit, we were embarrassed to have brought family to Meadowbrook for what we'd hoped would be a memorable experience. Which it was, but not in a good way. The fact is, they were given 3 chances over a period of several years (epic failure x 3). We described our miserable experiences to the general manager in writing, and it is abundantly clear that they do not care. So, we will never go back. When we want to see a show, we love going to Stone Mountain in Brownfield, where Carol Noonan has built a spectacular venue and a reputation for treating performers and audiences with respect. Or, anyplace but Meadowbrook, really.
