Doesn't this sound easiest? Is there something I am not realizing (heavy traffic??)

For the Coldplay show in August, I took the train to Secaucus and then then the shuttle to Izod for the way there. Coming back, I did the bus straight to Port Authority thinking it'd be so fast that late at night. After waiting in line to get on the bus for over an hour, the idiot driver took the GW Bridge and then went local on Broadway from 175th to 42nd St.

Don't know if he was new or trying to make some overtime, but that took 1.5 hours for what should have been 20 minutes. Not going to risk that again when the shuttle->train is so reliable!

ShaynaIU · 10-03-2012, 09:37 AM

But on a more positive note (sorry for that rant!

), SOOOOO pumped for these two shows at Izod!!!!

I live just north of the GW bridge, and take the A to midtown and that alone can take 30-35 on the express. Couldn't imaging being on Broadway for 130+ blocks. Insanity.

Yeah it was pretty painful! We'd hit a red light every 5 or 6 blocks. And after dancing all night (and a few drinks), all I wanted was to get off that bus and chug a giant bottle of water!

Rockinman · 10-03-2012, 04:35 PM

Any reason why the IZOD shows are not listed on Ticketmaster or Live Nation? I mean they ARE the first 2 shows. It looks like it will be part of the Citi Private Pass presale but it's not listed and Barclay's IS listed on Ticketmaster and that's the 2nd to last show. Thanks

Weekday commuters vs Saturday Paramus shoppers.

Speaking of Paramus shoppers . . . can you give me the low down on the outlet shopping in the area? I've read mixed reviews and I'd like to get some shopping done Saturday before N2.

ajc_1988 · 10-04-2012, 08:05 AM

WH requests in!

whodat · 10-04-2012, 08:10 AM

For GA, is it the whole floor, or a designated area up front, with seats on the back of the floor?

All of them.

I get asked (especially today) why I go to so many shows. I tell them each one is different, not only with set lists but energy (MSG N2 in 2010..best concert I have ever been to).

Hence, go to all three.

MSG 2010 N2 is my best out of 30 as well.

just cant explain or describe it to someone that wasn't there.

Warehouse requests in for GA both nights!

DMBluedevils · 10-04-2012, 12:49 PM

For those of you that are requesting GA tickets from the warehouse, are you ok with getting denied for GA and ending up with reserved? I'm not sure I want to risk getting terrible reserved seats so I might wait till the public onsale.
