Ice House is on the south end of the Woodlands area... a short distance from the Pavilion.

Not sure if there is a back road out of Papa's, but assuming not, you can just...

Go right/south out of Ice House parking lot, on 45 feeder road.

Take phurst UTURN back under I45 (NOT the ramp up onto I45 south!) to head back north.

Go back N on feeder or I45 to exit for overpass onto Lake Woodlands Drive / directly across from Woodlands Mall.

Head west on Lake Woodlands to the venue/parking. You can park by the mall if you don't have a parking ticket.

If parking at the mall, try behind the Tinseltown Theater to be close to the Pavilion.

From there.... follow the pholks to the show...

SOMEBODY CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG>>>>

PS rehersals today at Pavilion.... they flew in from FL, going straight to venue to practice.

You guys have FUN -- one of the few things I miss since I moved from Houston is getting to see him (once he finally left the hockey rink and went back) at the Woodlands. And, lucky you, you get to be the first to see the new set list: let's hope it's as good as you might hope from seeing what's on MMIM.

(p.s. if you know the Woodlands at all, the two parking lots for the Mitchell Energy buildings offer easy access into the venue and easy access OUT to 45 on your way home).

Enjoy!

Not until after 6 or 6:30---I think.
All the parking lots around the venue are private and no one else can park in them until after work hours.

She's entirely right -- they're business lots, and they're pretty much occupied 'til end-of-business. BUT, if you go to Papa's and head in that direction, by that time they're pretty much emptied out and GOOD parking both in and out. No real tailgaiting up there, but Papa's is fun.

Can you tailgate at Papa's?

I doubt it, unless you'd like to get arrested, and, honestly, that's not much of a parking lot (unless you like gravel). Go indoors, have a few -- it's fun.

Thank you ETP for the kind words.
It was so much fun having you here--please come back anytime!!!

We had fun at Papa's although, we didn't meet any BNers there,

I thought the show was fabulous!
One of the best I've ever seen.
