Bag Policy
This one is important to get right. If you miss, it's a LONG trip back to the car, missing Barry's first three songs!
From the TD Garden Policies page:
To uphold health and safety protocols, minimize contact, and ensure a swifter entry process, TD Garden strongly discourages guests from bringing bags to events.
If a bag is necessary, the following restrictions and processes apply:

Ticketing Policy
Like Gillette, TD Garden now scans for bar codes.

Click here for more information on purchasing tickets. Note: there are no ticket printing devices located on the concourse.
TD Garden uses bar code scanning for ticket admissions. As a result, fans should be careful when purchasing tickets and should ensure that the seller is a TD Garden licensed ticket seller, such as the TD Garden Box Office, all Ticketmaster outlets, Ticketmaster by phone, and Ticketmaster.com. Otherwise, you may be purchasing a ticket that is invalid and will be denied admission.
Fraudulent/Counterfeit & Secondary Market Tickets
Guests are advised that the only authorized sales agents for TD Garden tickets are the TD Garden Ticketing Department, TD Garden Box Office, Ticketmaster and TD Garden event promoters.
The only authorized ticket resale services for TD Garden tickets are Ticketmaster verified sites.
Tickets purchased from any other sources may not be valid. TD Garden is not able to honor, replace, or refund invalid tickets.
Reporting Counterfeit Tickets
Invalid tickets/barcodes will be confiscated by TD garden Box Office after an invalid scan. A Copy of the ticket will be provided at the customer’s request. A copy of the invalid ticket may be used to alert the point of purchase.
Guests with invalid tickets are welcome to purchase new tickets at TD Garden Box Office, but seat inventory, location and price is based upon availability.
Guests are strongly encouraged to report counterfeit ticket sales to the point of purchase and to consumer protection agencies such as the Massachusetts Attorney General Consumer Protection Hotline, at 617-727-8400. The hotline is staffed Mon-Fri, 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
If guests have information about the selling of counterfeit tickets, they are also encouraged to contact Boston Police. Individuals wishing to provide information anonymously may do so by calling the CrimeStoppers Tip Line at 1-800-494-TIPS or texting the word ‘TIP’ to CRIME (27463).
Violation of the above rules and regulations will result in eviction and/or arrest.

Barry Fun Facts
1) Did you know that the original name for Mandy, was Brandy? Barry had to change it, because Looking Glass beat him to it.
2) Did you know that Barry created the theme for American Bandstand?
3) Did you know that I Write The Songs was NOT written by Barry. It was written by Beach Boy Bruce Johnston.
4) Did you know that Barry didn't want to sing I Write The Songs? The I in I Write The Songs, is supposed to represent God, according to the writer, Bruce Johnston. Barry felt fans would misinterpret that and feel Barry would appear egocentric. Arista Record chief Clive Davis convinced Barry to record it, saying the audience would not interpret it that way. Honestly, I think the world DOES think that Barry writes the songs that the whole world sings.
5) Did you know that Barry wrote the music for State Farm Insurance? "Like A Good Neighbor, State Farm is there.."
