Anything is good at the Bruton Smith Blvd/Concord Mills Exit.

There's a Hampton Inn, Embassy Suites, Wingate Inn, Sleep Inn, Comfort Suites, Spring Hill Suites.

Knowing the GREAT group of BNers that we have in the Carolinas, I would bet that someone staying in the nearby hotels would help with transportation to and from the venue if you chose to park the RV at the RV resort.



really appreciate it I think we will fly or just drive the car and crash at a hotel. Cannot wait ...wished it was next weekend!!

Don't call ticketmaster - call Livenation. Ticketmaster isn't selling tickets!

funny.... just spent 25 minutes on the phone with ticketmaster because I wanted to make sure I had my info straight...should have checked the last response before I wasted my time with ticketmaster...thanks for the info. Do you know if live nation's prices are going to be closer to ticketmaster prices? TicketsNow are outrageous in my opinion. At those prices I'll have to stay in FL and wait.
thanks again

I think the prices on livenation are about the same as last year - about 36-125.

I got sec. 2, row 1 at 11:00 after having the same seat about a 1/2 hour earlier but timing out because the order verification page wouldn't load. (Didn't do as good for Raleigh, I'm only in the 3rd row for that one)

I was not going to go to this show but decided to check and see what tickets were available.

How many seats are in a row?

So I'm guessing Livenation ain't so bad after all.... :wink:
