  • Frog Town and Midway are pretty sketchy. I wouldn't bike there after the show. The lightrail is completely different than a bike.
  • Question for locals - If I have to stay in Downtown Minneapolis is riding the light rail green line train to and from the show a good option? Or is there a better option. Thanks

    It takes about 45 minutes to get from downtown MPLS to downtown STP on the light rail. Cost is around $2 each way. Plus you can see some the Twin Cities. Cab to STP will be quicker, cost about $30 one way, but trying to get one back after the show could be a pain.
    Thanks

    I would take the light rail. Taxi rides are boring. Train rides are unique and not every metro area has a light rail system.

  • Either way, the cities will be dead. It's a Sunday night.

    anyone else go to the ryan adams show last night? i'd never seen him - really, never much listened to him - but i came away very impressed. a great show. and the northrop acoustics are incredible; we were up on the 4th tier in the last rows and it sounded perfect.
