damn, maybe i just get lucky by parking near an exit but it only took me 20 mins to get out of the lot last year, was home within an hour

i know a sneaky back way into the south hills though

    Yeah, I'll be on the 50 yard line at Heinz jamming out to T. Swift while DMB is only a half hour away. Ah well, choices!

    Teach me your ways, master! Actually, don't bother trying to explain it. I suck at navigating Pittsburgh.

    I could see some typical lawn fans (girls 16 - late 20s) at TSwift.
    And, some parents taking their children to TSwift. I'm in the age range where I could be taking children to shows (actually I could also be celebrating their 21st birthday, but instead I'm celebrating a 6th birthday!).

    Front lot is the way to go. Seriously took us 5-10 minutes to get out last year.

    Anyway, I'm glad that Blossom and Star Lake are not back to back any more. Hopefully with being a month apart those of us who hit both will get more varied setlists.

    There was tons of spaces in the front lot and they forced us in the back last year. Girl was a little bitch. I was fuming, literally, it was so hot on that blacktop

    True, I never really thought of that. Sucks getting old.

    She might have said something to me, and I might have ignored her .

    We were there early though. They put us right next to the concrete barrier.

    I just want one, that is all I ask! Who the hell gets a #34 before they get a freaking Last Stop. Not that I'm complaining about the #34, that was the coolest shit.

    2 Last Stops
    0 #34's
    0 Spoons
    0 #40's

    Parking isn't bad if you're closer to the exit. You can elect to pay for upgraded parking.

    Lawn isn't bad, pavilion is good, first 3 sections are best.

    I'd go with Weirton for hotels. 5-10 min away and you're opposite of traffic going to and from the show. Check the screenshot.
