It's simple. Find a red line train. Get on the platform on the side that says toward Howard (not 95th/Dan Ryan, or you'll end up where you don't want to be), and ride until Addison. You'll be able to see the Wrigley lights from the left hand side of the train. Exit and voila!

I do believe Red ...

Plane tickets and concert tickets are bought!

I am a little intimidated about the L and all that. I think we may make a dry run up to Wrigley from our hotel downtown on Friday just to check it out.

What's the deal with this? I did the LiveNation presale and mine were print at home. Was that not offered for all the presales?

Thinking about surprising the wife for her Birthday and bringing her to WF.
No clue on what part of town to stay, want something close and easy for the concert.
Pre concert, where do we go? Not my first Buffett rodeo, but my first stay in Chicago and don't want to get mugged or lost or ...

The ones I saw were not on the field.

More like "who's not going to Wrigley?"

Hands-down the worst public on-sale I've ever seen.


Right??? I was so disappointed. My kids have bugging me to take them to a show, and I thought this would be a good one. So now I've got to hope and pray that I can wrangle four tickets together ...

Got mine, too. Section 138. Pretty pumped!

Now there's a Live Nation presale starting today. Anyone know what and how to get into that?

We have a group of about 15 wanting to go, but the limit is 8. I've never been to a show at Wrigley. Any chance we can all get together, and if so, how should I go about it? My wife and I both have Amex cards, but it says limit 8 per household, so I'm afraid they will cancel our order.

No.

2:00 CDT.

Walk around and look. That's the best part.

At least all of the city folk can go to this show now, since they usually act like Tinley is thousands of miles away and the venue is a Soviet gulag.

Amen, brother. I drive all the way from South Bend and I don't think it's "that far." I also don't get the hate for Tinley. It's not that bad.

How empty is Tinley these days for Jimmy? Haven't been there since 2007 but it was completely sold out then. Are we talking a half full lawn now?

Lawn can be deceiving because people generally expand to fill the space. But qualitatively speaking, it's nothing like it was ten years ago, when I ...

Seems to me there was a significant change around that time 5 or so yrs ago... Like maybe when we stopped going to Toyota Park?

To each their own, but IMO people make way too big a deal about the venue. I've seen him in Indy and all the Chicago venues. The only one I probably wouldn't do again is ...

It's shrunk in popularity over the past 5 or so years. I don't think it has sold out for awhile, now.

This thread is evidence, as by now it would be several pages long.

So Indy is announced for 6/23. Might Chicago 6/25 be likely?

First of all, if you bought lawn tickets you knew exactly what you were buying. You knew the Riverfront was a flat park so don't acted astonished if you didn't have a great view. If you are unwilling to spend for seats, then that's what's left.


It looked like even in the seats, you might be ...

Long time Chicago concertgoer here. Due to some likely scheduling difficulties next summer, Detroit may be in play. I've been to a "new waterfront venue" show in Chicago (Northerly Island, 2013) and it was a really miserable experience. The part that bothered me most was that there was almost no ...

Hoping the weather holds. 75 and partly cloudy, but looks like a cold night...low of 58. Hopefully no rain. Wish it was a bit warmer.

We staying at the Holiday Inn while attending the show in Chicago. We were there last year as well. We did the whole Odyssey Golf "pregame" party, but got tired of being yelled at for having drink outside. It is not a true tailgate party there and we really miss the days of Toyota. Maybe Holiday ...

Hi, we have tickets to Chicago/Tinley Park this year, a group of 10 of us, since the Detroit shows have been at Comerica Park. It has been a few years, since we have gone to Tinley Park. We do have rooms at Comfort Inn. Sounds like the parking lot is opening at 2. We spoke to the hotel and they ...
