RE: Carnegie Hall w/Mayfield - TICKETS NOW ON SALE

From some of the reviews, It seems many of the 'gadgets' come from overseas with 'translated' english instructions. There also seemed to be alot of complaining that they didn't work as advertised, poor construction, cheap materials and that many that did work would eventually stop working. On top of that, many of the items were much cheaper at Amazon than at the spy store web sites.

There seemed to be as many complaint posts as posts that gave high ratings (some of the ones with high ratings...seemed like were written by someone 'promoting' the item and had curious grammatical usage too )
Some of the items supplied video examples, and having gone through a few, while the video was passable in many, the audio, in general was poor to bad...which would be pointless for this situation.
Bottom line, it just seems likely to be a waste of money 
You know what Mr. Tusk......you should just go and enjoy it. You can't be the eyes and ears for everyone all of the time. I think you have already gone above and beyond for your fellow Haliens. Go, have fun please!
THIS! Have fun and give us a good report.

RE: Carnegie Hall w/Mayfield - TICKETS NOW ON SALE
I wouldn't be surprised if Haley and Casey performed "Hit the Road Jack."
Quote:The NOJO and Mayfield will also celebrate their accomplishments by playing in the Stern Auditorium at Carnegie Hall on October 8 with guests Dee Dee Bridgewater, Haley Reinhart, Casey Abrams, Branford Marsalis, Aaron Neville, the Sphinx Virtuosi String Chamber Orchestra and other artists, with Soledad O’Brien hosting. Their tenth year celebration continues at the end of the month with a Tribute to Ray Charles featuring the NOJO and Shannon Powell; and a monthlong Masters Series featuring Steve Masakowski, Victor Atkins, Ed Petersen and more
