    Decided late to fly out for just the Friday show and I’m flying home Saturday morning, so staying by the airport made sense. Booked the Holiday Inn. They have an airport shuttle so hoping I can at least get a ride to the show. 
    This show, another show, a show here and a show there.

    Would airport lodging be easiest and a decent choice?   Wondering if the BART ride would be available, looks like it runs til midnight.  Brain mashing times the show would start and end, and all that jazz...

    Not really wanting to get hooked for high UBER rates after the show either.

    Any expert advice?
    We will be talking about all things related to the 1st leg tour including accommodations in Oakland this Friday evening on NoFilter.net. We will also have a drawing for a PJ mystery LP for those that knock and participate in the stream. Join us and share your thoughts.  www.nofilter.net

    When I did the Oakland show in 2013, I stayed in a hotel in San Fran.  Easy to get back to it after the show.

    It has been a very long time since I took BART from Oakland. After an event, are there generally more riders heading North towards Berkley/SF or more heading South towards Fremont? I am not going to be able to make the PJ shows, it just has me curious.

    Generally, there has always been more Northbound passengers. However, with BART extending first to Dublin/Pleasanton and more recently San Jose, I imagine it's balancing out now.

    A previous poster said 12:30am.    I would imagine that's fine on most occassions?  I guess the challenge is, are PJ going to continue playing 3 hour barn burners or are they going to go back to 2 to 2.5 hour sets.

    Those 2013 shows at the end of the West Cost tour, when they had Mudhoney opening, then 3 hour+ sets on top of that.  Some of the few times I'd been in an Arena past 12:00am.
  • Stay in Berkeley or SF or any hotel that's a few blocks from a BART station. No driving. No parking. It's super easy. And timing works with all concerts.

    Staying at the Weston St Francis,  looks like it’s very convenient for taking the BART to Oakland arena and everything I want to do in the city.   Thanks for the tips
