re: 50 minutes only ... Oops

My big mistake. Meant to say the performance was about 75 minutes, maybe 80 with one encore.

Prior to Friday I didn't have much experience with jazz clubs, and I enjoyed the classy experience. I didn't attend with a date, just a friend, but it will definitely be a romantic option for a future date night.

However, given the price tag, I think I would rather direct my fun-money to theater, ballet, opera, etc., unless there is really a performer like Ms. Buckley that I want to see up close. I've signed up for Feinstein's email blasts so I'll keep a look-out. I've noticed the ticket prices vary depending on the performer, so some are more affordable than others.

Most of the Feinstein's shows are on Goldstar, even Betty's shows were on it. The only thing is that with Goldstar tickets, you don't sit close to the stage, which is perfectly fine as the venue is so small as you know.

Ah yes, thanks for the reminder.

The only seats that looked oddly placed were the small tables along the back wall to the right as you enter the club. IIRC, the counter seats -- I think these are called "the rails" -- were in front of this last row of seats. How can you be seated behind people on counter-level stools and see anything other the patrons' backsides?

Buying a ticket on GoldStar might be a good reason to tip the maitre de as I previously asked about. If it is the same maitre de everytime, he seemed super friendly and might open to a little flirting for a better seat! LOL ;-)
