On the weekend.
There are a few restrictions, but check it out. It doesn't work for me because I am going to both shows, but if you are going just for one, I think it works.
49 dollars each way.

GO to weekend deals.

    Sounds like a great deal -- now all I need is a ticket for the Saturday show! Anybody got an extra??

    Do the bus instead! We did that from DC to NYC for $10!!! :) Might be $20 now that it's closer to the date. Go to megabus.com or boltbus.com Both leave from Chinatown and go to Penn Station. Not dirty and scary either, like a greyhound pretty much.
    I won't change direction, and I won't change my mind - E.V.

    Oh well, I tried to help. lol
    I am all about comfort and a bus is not the way for me. :p
    Although when I was on tour I was driven around in the same Prevost that U2 had used on the tour prior to that. Now that was a bus. :)

  • I can secure roundtrip tickets to DC via bus, but am without a ticket for Saturday's show. If anyone reads this, I would prefer hard ticket at face value. PLLLLLEEEEEEEEZZZZZZZZZEEEEEEEEE !!!!!
