Livenation. I have a couple pairs coming from Warehouse too but Livenation’s are the ones that look like stubs.

    Are there any hotels within walking distance of the venue?

    Depends on your definition of walking distance. There are some along Michigan Ave but it’s still a bit of a hike.

    I'm going the VRBO route and just hoping I don't get murdered. About a mile away from the venue, so basically walking distance.

    I would say 90% of the crime is on the south and west sides, you will be fine.

    I always tell people, use common sense. Don't walk at night with your face buried in your phone, walk in groups and just be smart.

    I was speaking of the actual VRBO owner.

    8 shootings this weekend in Dallas. Kind of normal tbh

    Ticket drop on LiveNation for these shows. Both nights. No pits, but decent single lowers and a bunch of pairs in the $85 range.

    302-305 are really good seats IMO, for the price point. Great view, elevated.

    is there any slope to the PIT? and with it as large as it is, would you say its packed or could you choose to stand in the back and not feel as crammed?

    likewise, is there any slope to sections 203, 204, 205 ?

    No slope at all whatsoever but that being said you absolutely can hang in the back of the pit and be fine.

    So I booked my hotel though IHG properties. 2 of them have cancelled due to remodeling or outright hotel being sold. Anyone else experience this?

    Just picked up a pair in section 308, sat around there for D&T in 2017, good seats. Really excited to see the band first time in two years. When do the Two Step chants start!!!!

    Anyone looking to trade a night one pit for a night two pit?

    I'd also be interested in selling it. I bought it off vivid seats and called them to make sure its still valid, etc.

    I still have no idea if that Adler parking lot is even open. There is no number to call that will answer- both for the lot or the venue. I think we're going to pregame at a bar and uber for N1 just to see the logistics. If they'll let you pay for parking at the Adler lot the day of, then that'll be the move for N2.

    Wow. Do you know where the parking is for sure? Because if you just paid for some random spot a few blocks away, I don't know how it's worth $140. I think when I got passes for the Adler lot (just north of the venue) it was like $50 or something in 2018.

    If you go soldierfield.clickandpark.com you can pre purchase Adler lot passes. Think it’s like $53. Says 4 hours open before.

    Good find! And it doesn't say anything about prohibiting tailgating!

    Awesome, this is exactly what I was looking for. Snagging those passes now.

    I know it doesn't say anything about the tailgating but it never did. It was always kind of a "don't ask" type situation but I remember groups having big speakers setup and stuff so I can't imagine them caring at all.

    Is anybody familiar with cycling in Chicago? In the city, is it cyclist-friendly or is best to stick with public transportation?
