me and my mom will be there, shes a huge fan and got me into them as a kid, it would be her first time seeing Gn'R live! i will be getting my tickets at the end of the month!

i still dont know if the CTA (chicago transit authority) runs a bus to and from the venue, if they do it would be a PACE bus since allstate is considered to be in the suburbs, which is $1.75 each way. for those flying up, i would fly into O'Hare (ORD) as it would be way way closer to the venue than Midway would be, though both are near public transportation (subway trains...yellow line for midway, and blue line for O'Hare (blue line runs all night!)

just figured i would post that last bit of info for those flying in wondering about public transportation in chicago.

If anyone's looking for hotel accommodations for the show, there are a couple of hotels within what looks like walking distance of the venue.  One is some sort of Radisson, and I can't remember the other one off the top of my head.  It sounds like parking's a bear at this place, so walking could be useful, assuming you don't get run over.   rofl

Also, it looks like there are some strip malls and restaurants nearby as well, so plenty of places to grab a bite or kill some time before the show.

Anyone know if there are any cheap yet decentish hotels near Midway Airport? Thinking about flying down after Minneapolis for this gig.

You may wanna consider flying into O'Hare, as the venue is right next to O'Hare. The flight may be a bit more expensive, but you'd make up for it in travel costs I'm sure?

Yep, axlrosegnr's got it right.  And there are hotels so close to the venue that you could easily walk and avoid parking issues (which I hear are pretty bad at this place).

Looking at flying into OHare - is that Holiday inn that seems to be about a half mile from Allstate and two miles from Ohare a decent Holiday Inn? I've stayed at Holiday inns that totally suck, so I wanna know. Booking my trip on Friday.

Are you guys interested in a preshow meet up?  I already spoke with the owner and its all good, he will reserve a section for us.  This place is really cool, and has tons of beers, and its right down the street from the show. Please let me know, so i can get a headcount

Awesome, I'm in!

We're traveling over to the Chicago area fairly early that day to hang out with a buddy all day. He's coming to the show so we'll head to the pre-show meet up whenever everyone else will be there!

The opening act will be on around 9, not GN'R, so we'll have plenty of time.

I guess we will have to see what time the opening band goes on, not sure why i was thinking they were going on at 9 lol
