The holiday season is approaching, and that means that New Yorkers and tourists alike will bond together on Broadway: seeing great shows to escape the cold. Even a pro can be at a loss when deciding what to see, but I’m here to help you out by giving you a list of the best Broadway ... <a title="Best Broadway Shows for the Holidays!" class="read-more" href="https://blog-admin.tickpick.com/best-broadway-shows/" aria-label="Read more about Best Broadway Shows for the Holidays!">Read more</a>

“It’s just so much different not knowing who you’re playing… usually when you’re a division winner you start at home, and you’re starting on the road.” These were the words uttered disdainfully by Yankee Manager Joe Girardi when answering questions about the new playoff format last Friday. The Yankees had just clinched their third division ... <a title="New MLB Playoff Format: Who Benefits the Most?" class="read-more" href="https://blog-admin.tickpick.com/new-mlb-playoff-format/" aria-label="Read more about New MLB Playoff Format: Who Benefits the Most?">Read more</a>

The show that the cast and crew of Saturday Night Live put on this past weekend was sub-par, to say the least (save one hilarious Bond girl skit). An awkward Daniel Craig flubbed up nearly all of the comedic timing, and the political comedy that usually makes SNL so great to watch during the election ... <a title="Muse Saves Studio 8H" class="read-more" href="https://blog-admin.tickpick.com/muse-saves-studio-8h/" aria-label="Read more about Muse Saves Studio 8H">Read more</a>

70% of all tickets decrease in price over time. Anywhere else, these would be great odds, but when you are determined to see a show, not so much. If you expect ticket prices to drop and they suddenly increase, it can be very off-putting. This was and is the case for Jay-Z‘s performances at Barclays ... <a title="When Should I Buy Concert Tickets?" class="read-more" href="https://blog-admin.tickpick.com/when-should-i-buy-concert-tickets/" aria-label="Read more about When Should I Buy Concert Tickets?">Read more</a>

It is a grand tradition that, at a Nationals home game in the middle of the fourth inning, Nationals Park hosts a presidential race. Literally. George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Theodore Roosevelt have been running competitively since 2006. Good old Teddy Roosevelt has lost the last 534 races, but remarkably, yesterday afternoon, he finally won one. In the past, ... <a title="The Nationals make history!" class="read-more" href="https://blog-admin.tickpick.com/the-nationals-make-history/" aria-label="Read more about The Nationals make history!">Read more</a>

(Note: the following post was, in fact, written by TickPick co-founder Brett Goldberg, and not myself. I merely wish I had gone to this concert.) Jay-Z has sold out more concerts than any other hip-hop artist in the world. There’s good reason for this: it revolves around his ability to control the crowd’s energy. ... <a title="Jay-Z Opens Barclays Center With a Sweet Set" class="read-more" href="https://blog-admin.tickpick.com/jay-z-opens-barclays-center-with-a-sweet-set/" aria-label="Read more about Jay-Z Opens Barclays Center With a Sweet Set">Read more</a>

It should not be a surprise to learn that the members of Green Day, over the years, have struggled with substance abuse. Billie Joe Armstrong, the lead singer, was reportedly going cold turkey in the past few years. On the set of American Idiot, the Broadway musical based on the album of the same name, ... <a title="Wake Billie Joe Up When September Ends" class="read-more" href="https://blog-admin.tickpick.com/wake-billie-joe-up-when-september-ends/" aria-label="Read more about Wake Billie Joe Up When September Ends">Read more</a>

In the spirit of Lady Gaga‘s upcoming tour, I was inspired to write a little bit about the superstar and her unique fanbase. The fans of Lady Gaga and other similar artists (Madonna, Katy Perry, Britney Spears, and Rihanna - to name a few) are incredibly diverse, so it’s kind of hard to pinpoint just one ... <a title="The Culture of the Diva" class="read-more" href="https://blog-admin.tickpick.com/the-culture-of-the-diva/" aria-label="Read more about The Culture of the Diva">Read more</a>

You thought you got rid of them in the early 00’s, but you can’t escape them. In the past year alone, the Jonas Brothers have announced a reunion, 98 Degrees are working on new material, and supergroup NKOTBSB continue to perform. Not only that, but new boybands like The Wanted and One Direction (speaking of, check ... <a title="One Direction & The Resurgence of the Boyband" class="read-more" href="https://blog-admin.tickpick.com/one-direction-the-resurgence-of-the-boyband/" aria-label="Read more about One Direction & The Resurgence of the Boyband">Read more</a>

Shane Doan, Phoenix captain and winger decides to stay with the Coyotes for the 4th straight year, despite considerably better offers from other teams.  We’re sure to see some great action from this team glued together by their loyalty to each other and their fans.  They surely won’t disappoint in the coming season, despite hemorrhaging ... <a title="Phoenix Coyotes Band Together for Another Season" class="read-more" href="https://blog-admin.tickpick.com/phoenix-coyotes-ban-together-for-another-season/" aria-label="Read more about Phoenix Coyotes Band Together for Another Season">Read more</a>
