Oh yeah it was nuts on the morning of the day of the announcement. Word had definitely gotten out.

Pit B for Chicago 1.

Had GA Night 1 in my cart, Saw the fees and called an audible and went for Nose Bleeds where I saw them first time in 1997. Somehow the nose bleeds make me happier..... If looking for good seats Night 2 seems the way to go. No waiting room for Night 2.

we had nosebleeds chicago 1 in 2019 and loved it, sound was good and we could see the water

Snoopy2-I had fun in 97. When I bought on the test site last Thursday. I kind of had buyers remorse for the seats I had. Today I went GA bit having a seat is always a plus so I'm kind of excited for Nose Bleeds!

I'm headed to CHICAGO!

I have 2 extra tickets to sell at cost.

We shall

What's the best way roundtrip from O'hare airport to hotel near the stadium? Thanks

Chicago has the CTA's blue line that runs from ORD to downtown.
Or, use Uber or taxi.
About a 30 minute trip without traffic via car.

GIMME is the password for Soldier Field Pre sale today.

$500 in service fees! What the actual f***?

Okay I vented. See you in Chicago in June.

In the hunt for Lucky Dips for both shows today.

We've got this. Best of luck.

For those looking for affordable accommodations, The Getaway Hostel is a nice building in great neighborhood, Lincoln Park, close to public transportation. It's right by my house actually.

Staying at Marriott Marquis for Night 2. Stayed there both nights back in '19 as it's walking distance from Soldier Field

What's parking for those of us who are driving?

Don't know, sorry, I'm a public-transport-using European ;-)

Snoopy2-In 2019 there was a Circus going on in the South Lot so it wasn't available. Keep in mind 2019 was rescheduled due to Mick's heart issue. So, the South Lot should be open and is always fun! The Waldron is just North of The South Lot. In 2019 the merch booth outside was right by The Waldron Lot so it was convenient to buy a shirt and Litho and then go put it in the car before entering Soldier

That's actually the question I answered! From what I remember it was on a pretty quiet residential street, but don't know if there were parking restrictions. Theire website mentions limited parking:

Any recommendations for Chicago Rock n Roll or Jazz related whilst I'm in town?
