NYCB Theatre at Westbury bus access

I am strongly considering seeing Brian Setzer there this November. Can not find any intel re: bus access preshow/sound check or even after show for that matter. Does anyone have any information they can share?

I left the Island back in '99 so I don't know how security is now but back in the mid-90's I got the Kinks before the show, around 5:00. Got Cheap Trick after a show.
Roger Daltrey appeared there once with a School Of Rock show, big crowd waited afte the show, he just waved as his limo drove away.

I used to go there regularly for sound checks. There was no problem until about 7 yrs ago. An incident occurred when a fan tried to give an artist (forget who) a ton of items to sign and the artist wouldnt do more than a few. An bad argument ensued and security has shut it down ever since. The fans can no longer hang out by the stage door. You must stand way back, so if the artist wants to walk over (if they even see you), thats the only way to get something signed. Personally, I dont bother anymore. Its not worth my trip.
