no hope no harm
they film alot of movies, commercials and tv shows in montclair. nice old houses, streets and town.
i think its kind of close to the nj transit train. if you go to the nj transit website, you can look up how far train stations are from a street address.

I believe there is a regular nj transit bus you can catch from NYC to Montclair. I think it's the #11 and #28.
The NJ transit site is awful, but there may be info elsewhere.

i totally forgot about the busses. go with the bus. call NJ transit an speak with someone directly, tell them exactly where you are going. make sure you find out the gate # at the port authority.

Well looks like we are back on track and I'm not too worried about the rest of the tour!!!
Who has been to Wellmont before. How small is this place? I'm having my boyfriend lift me on the stage at one of these shows. ( I say this now but you know I'll chicken out) but in case I grow a set...
I'm thinking about waiting for NYC to join everyone else because I have a feeling it won't go down too well at this place.

The theater has just been renovated and reopened just last year.
Interesting article about the renovations:
http://www.musicsnobbery.com/2008/09/inside-the-wellmont-theater-two-months-from-opening.html
The Wellmont Theatre was built in 1922 as a legitimate theatre and converted into a motion picture theatre in 1929. The original entrance on the main avenue was 400 Bloomfield Avenue.
In 1951, it was listed with a seating capacity of 2,137. In the 1970's, the theatre was triplexed and the entry was moved around the corner to the lobby's former emergency exit. The original lobby then became a diner. The largest auditorium is the balcony theatre. Two auditoriums with smaller screens were created in the former orchestra seating.
The Westmont Theatre closed in 2006. In 2008, it was reported that the theatre was sold and the new owners were working on a plan to reopen it for concerts and other events. In 2008, as part of the renovations, the Wellmont Theatre became a single screen again, with the removal of the triplexing. A planned grand opening as a concert venue, is scheduled for October 27, 2008

The last few Moz shows Ive been too, I actually arrived about an hour before the show and I've gotten pretty close..about 3 to 4 "rows" back, but never the coveted spot at the front, so really as long as you're there AT LEAST an hour early you should be ok. Especially at this place. I'm not familiar with Monclair, but standing in line for hours doesn't sound fun if you're not in the city, ya know what I mean.
Pee breaks, food breaks, people walking by, the excitement...etc..

First post here and this will be my first Moz show. I got a bit worried last week with the slew of cancellations, but now that he's gotten better, I'm completely stoked.
It's a small place, but probably not ideal for invading the stage. You'd probably have better luck at the Bowery show if yr going.
