Dining also offers a range from Patina for quite a lot of money or the cafe for a quick and reasonably priced meal. As for the person who complained about not being able to bring in his or her 2 year-old, this is good news for the rest of us. I don't know of a... more

No Emperor Concerto because the featured pianist cancelled? Never fear, you can hear Beethoven's 4th instead! Not what you paid for? Doesn't matter because all programs and artists are subject to change. They don't tell you that when they promote the event and take your money. Once you pay for your ticket, you are a captive to whatever LA Phil chooses to offer you. So don't be fooled by... more
