Beginning to re-think my radisson near the stadium based on this thread. I want to be able to enjoy the area.
Downtown SF is pretty expensive but it is closer to things like Fishermans wharf and places of interest. Anyone recommend a good block or 2 of the area that is good for after concert fun? I dont really know if downtown Oakland is a better option? Bay area is one of the very few places I have never been.
My Sunday in the day will be Alcatraz (unless I'm GA lol) and id like to find a sweet record store on Saturday the 18th after I land around noon and maybe baseball.
There is literally nothing good (and much bad) in the area around the arena...I'd definitely pay up a bit and stay somewhere else.
Downtown Oakland (really, the area kind of just north of it, where the Fox and Paramount theaters are, along with the New Parish) is kind of hip and happening, with cool bars and restaurants, including Drake's Dealership. Not a bad place to hang before (as I'll be doing) and after (as I won't, 'cause I'm old) the show(s). Not sure if there are any hotels around there, but if so they'd probably be cheaper than any decent ones in S.F., though probably a bit more than the Radisson. Plus, the 19th Street BART station is right there, probably a half-dozen or so stops from the Coliseum stop. (Which is very dangerous and crime-ridden a lot of the time, but during sports events or concerts there are so many people, not to mention usually an actual police presence, that it's totally safe during those times...just don't get caught after the last train leaves!)
I wouldn't be staying at the Radisson if I could cancel. But...there is going to be a lot of us there so as long as we head back after the show in a group we should be good.
They can't shank all of you!
As long as I'm not the slowest runner I should be OK

No GA for me. Seats are meh compared to what I get for other shows there, but I am happy to be in the house and not have to try and find tickets! Night 1 - Sec 113 Row 11 Night 2 - 101 Row 21
1991- Hollywood Palladium, California with Temple of the Dog, Soundgarden, and Alice in Chains -RIP Magazine Show Oct. 6th 1992- Lollapalooza, Irvine, California Nothing since then. I suck. 2016- Fenway Park, Boston - Both glorious nights 2022- Oakland Night 2
Oak 1 101 row 13 Oak 2 B row 8 Ticket buddy is out. Should I put 1 each night in f2f or put up for new ticket buddy?
Life will be easier putting on f2f. Get your money back with no risk. Don't have to meet someone and walk in at the same time. But you never know. Could make a new friend with the ticket buddy.

Thanks. I would prefer a 10c member, but will have to do something. Thankfully no rush to decide.
Did want pit one night as my wife said go with me a night if in the pit. What a snob. I'm happy with both sets and think the floor seats will be great as long as nobody too tall in right in front of me. Pretty much half way back.

Shouldn't be to hard to find someone on here to go with. I've done it a number of times and it's always worked out.
