I wish our drive was as short as yours AK.
We're probably 3 to 3 1/2 hours away.........depending on traffic.
Yeah, thats a haul. I'm about 30 minutes away.
Beware... parking in the area sucks big time.

d'oh! Tickets are a pain, but being towed is the worst.
I got to the area really early and snagged a spot on the street for the Cult show. I've been in the area since then and have had less luck with parking.

If you get there early in the afternoon, you're likely to hear the soundcheck from outside.
There is a backstage door that opens out into an alley right next to the theatre. When the band is soundchecking, you can hear things pretty clearly if you hang out in that alley.

Better change that arrival to between 5 and 5:30. Why not leave earlier from work.

The area that the theatre is in is safe.
Although if you're a Sox fan, you could run into trouble.

The last time I saw D21C it was at the Congress in Chicago. Amazingly I got to stand right in front of the stage, five feet away from my Idol, the great Ray Manzarek, and I thought NOTHING could ever top that.
I've been saving for just this occasion. I went for the VIP seating.
YEAAHHH
Hope to see you guys there.
