Book an upper balcony seat to hover directly over the stage; the acoustics crush the main floor every time. That gold-leaf interior hits different, but dodge chaotic intermission lines by grabbing a drink at the basement bar during the opening act. Skip the overpriced parking garages and hunt for street spots nearby instead. If you have extra cash, the $45 Milwaukee Tour is worth it for the history. Show up for the music, not just the photos.
