I haven't been keeping up with this thread so I may have missed this. Is Harrah's stumbling distance from the venue or do I need to rent a car?

Do not walk.. very long walk around the levy. They usually have a bevy of cabs out front that can drop you at the venue. Of course if you want a good workout you can walk. It appears much closer than it is due to the levy.
See how nice I answered your question. I didnt even throw the ole "if its public information look it up for yourself" at you. Always willing to help out if I have any info. (from another thread)
Some others posted about the possibility of a shuttle but appears Harrahs will not be doing it. That always could change.
One month from today... cant wait..

My understanding is that the radio station will be furnishing the shuttle. That is who had it at the last concert 7 or 8 years ago and could explain why Harrah's doesn't know about it.

STL parrothead- do you know if Dave n Busters is doing anything shuttle wise?? I took shuttle from there last time but the shuttle may have just been for the group I was with. Was along time ago so not quite sure of the arrangement.

That's a tough one LIPH. It's probably a good half mile walk or so on top of a levee (no sidewalk and dark). With the STL weather it's hard to tell if the grass on the levee will be tall or smashed down at that time.
I personally would rent the car, but the traffic at this amphitheater is crazy so you may be able to walk it quicker. Just my opinion and I'm pretty cheap usually.

Dokken is correct, it LOOKS a lot closer than it really is.

I agree with you.. forgot about that walk back in the dark. Just throw in the possibility of rain or even a shower and that can make for a pretty treacherous walk.

You may want to try Hotwire for a car. Im renting from THurs-Mon and it was only 89$ with tax. Not sure if they still have that deal. I ended up with a Thrifty car so you may b able to go straight to Thrifty if you are not comfortable with Hotwire.

NO worries was just seeing if that maybe was an option for some people. Its not that Im a big fan of the place but it was a nice arrangement last time. Have a good one!!!

Greetings all! New to the site but wanted to say I'm one happy lady that I don't have to drive 7 or more hours to see Jimmy this time though he is totally worth the travel! There are six of us coming from Kansas City and yes, we are staying at Harrah's. I will check back often to see any updates as to where everyone will be gathering pre and post show. Would love to meet each and everyone of you . . and it sounds like that could be arranged.

Welcome Willow. It looks as if Harrahs is the place to be pre/post concert. Boat Drunks in Vodoo Lounge for post concert-concert. I have not seen them but everyone has good things to say about them. Looked at their website and looks as if it will be fun. Have a safe trip over from KC!!

Wait a minute...does this mean I may be meeting THE Larry? I've heard the tales...

Bringing the wife and two of the kids to the show! We flew to NY last year and did the MSG show it was great! JIMMY WHY NOT KANSAS CITY Garth played the Sprint Center why dont you?

What is the most outrageous thing you have seen at a JB tailgate party?

maybe not strange but......

Thanks DOKKEN88 for the warm welcome. Looking forward to getting to know all of you better and as I stated before meeting as many of you as I can in St. Louis. I'm excited because I'm bringing 4 yep I said FOUR people who have never been to a JB concert. Can you even imagine!?!?! Life as they know it will never be the same.
