Jacksonville road trip to see Sons of Legion?

Stay in the Riverside neighborhood—tree-lined streets, actual character, and close enough to venues without feeling disconnected from the city. Orsay has the kind of kitchen that justifies driving across town: French-inflected food that doesn't announce itself. Spend an afternoon at the Cummer Museum if you want something quiet before the show, or walk the San Marco area and remind yourself what civic architecture used to look like. The venue itself will be worth your attention—Jacksonville books serious acts, and they still know how to put on a show that doesn't get drowned out by the room.
