    I think Minneapolis will have more to do, but I would stay in St. Paul. Being close to the show will be the most convenient. Stay downtown. You can always cab it to Minneapolis.

    Thanks! After hearing from CM last night I started looking at Minneapolis. Was glad to hear that it was lively as previously I had been looking at St. Paul and was getting a bit unstoked on the hotel prices (most good options seemed to be $150+ per night).

    …Anyways, I was able to snag the Westin in Minneapolis using their name your price option for only $76/night! From the recent comments about St. Paul, it sounds like it will be a good base as we can explore around St. Paul the day of the show, and use the conveniences of Minneapolis to rest up on the day before the show after driving up from Moline.

    Congrats again everyone for getting your long sought after show, I can't wait!

    In all fairness (like most cities), it really depends what you are into doing. The twin cities is basically broken up into neighborhoods. So whatever your vibe, we got it

    Agreed. That's one of my favorite things about the Twin Cities. Lots of good neighborhood hangouts in both cities.

    Minneapolis has uptown, northeast, U of M/Cedar, the lakes areas, south. St. Paul has Como Park, Highland, Grand, West 7th area.

    5 major professional sports teams (Twins, Wild, Wolves, Vikings, Lynx). U of M. Tons of theaters. Parks. Record stores (Hymies, Agharta, Fetus etc). Shopping (Mall of America, uptown, downtown, Grand Avenue). Comedy clubs (Acme, in particular). Lots of great local bars.

    I don't know. Maybe it's not as fast paced as NYC, Chicago or LA, but we've got a great urban life here. Lots of things to do. Maybe I'm boring, but food, music/comedy and sports are all here in abundance and it makes life pretty awesome.

    yes. the light rail line between the two cities opens in june, so it is good timing. otherwise there is bus lines, too.

    I have honestly seen about 40-50 users on the board looking for St. Paul tickets. I think this show will be a really hard ticket to get.

    I'm so happy for you Minnesota folks. I met some really great people from Minnesota in St Louis in 2010. I hope those guys got tix.

    I'll be in St Paul with reserved. Got a great crew heading up there after Moline and then on to Milwaukee.

    Really looking forward to this show and meeting some Minny PJ fans.
