    The Wrigley experience soured me on hotels that aren't walking distance to the venue. If I'm travelling to a show I'm staying within a mile radius of the venue from now on.

    especially when the show is in another country and u dont know the language!!!!

    For the Wrigley show I stayed at the Days Inn Chicago, which according to Google Maps is 1.2 miles from the venue. I have to stay after standing in line for 2 days @ 6 hours each day in the merch lines that 1.2 mile walk was just about my limit so I definitely agree with your assessment.

    That walk was definitley crazy :lol: The whole area was full of all shades of drag queens! I felt bad for the people who had to walk their kids home afterwards. Not the best area to walk around in past midnight.
