Let’s face it, Central New York Winter’s can be long, especially if you don’t enjoy the cold weather, and outdoor sports like skiing, snowmobiling, and ice fishing. Here is a list of great concerts all within a 2 hour car drive that can help you get through these cold months. I’ve come up with a list for every music taste from jazz to comedy and everything in between. You may even want to make it into a little weekend getaway.
