Wrong thread,  let it go. 

I have fun. You post fake intel.

Just sharing what I’ve been told from credible industry sources/friends.  Plans do change, often quickly.  Technically this is a late summer tour and there is a shed You conveniently didn’t share any of the intel that I got right 🤔. I’ll be sure to keep all future intel to myself.  Anyway, enjoy the shows all that are lucky to go.

I see lots of folks asking about the safety around the UC for walking to and from the shows. 

How’s the safety for the people that will be camping out there for a couple nights for GA (we all know this will be the case). 

Lol. I can't speak for that specific neighborhood. But I've camped out on the sidewalk for Wrigley before. There were security guards and several other fans around, so it was pretty safe. However, some venues are now prohibiting people from lining up before a certain time on the day of the show. So it just depends on how cooperative they plan to be for this event.

Not to quibble, but Wrigley and United are two completely different neighborhoods. I haven't been to United Center in a while, but from my recollection, you would be ok in the stadium area, but I wouldn't recommend wandering the neighborhood. 

Quibble away. I've been to both UC and Wrigley many times. But I live 8 hours away, so I'm certainly no expert on the Chicago area. I was merely sharing my experience because someone else had previously mentioned that the Wrigley area is now more dangerous than the UC area. Also wanted to mention that the venue may provide security if they anticipate a crowd will be camping out

1. United Center neighborhood is worse than Wrigleyville. Whomever said Wrigley is worse must be in the wrong city. 

2. I wouldn’t sleep anywhere in the city. 

3. Please check with the UC if you do decide to camp out. You’ll need security. 

4. Look out for each other and keep each other safe. 

5. I live in the city and my neighbor is a cop. 

I used to live about 4-5 blocks west of UC.  You don’t need security to hang out there.  There’s usually hardly anyone around the building and pre show it will be majority fans.


You say you wouldn’t sleep anywhere in the city, yet you live in it?
Almost anywhere downtown is safe to stay, as safe as any major city.  Just use caution.

Friend of mine re-joined 10c a couple weeks ago and got a number in the 735k range.  Just gives you an idea of how high the numbers are now. 

Holy crap.  That makes me feel pretty good about my 327k lol

Hell Yeah! Just scored a pair for the September 5th show from WXRT in Chicago. 

Nice score, great station.
Interesting that they are giving out tickets before the sale.

Best part is someone from here won them.  Congratulations!

Radio tickets are usually a special/reserved supply not cutting into 10C/public supplies.

Sleep outside…not under a roof. See last weekends activities downtown. Like you said, use caution.

PSA- for those of you who want GA and are still confused about the whether to select (a) just “GA or Reserved” or (b) both “GA or Reserved” and also “Reserved,” 10c just sent me the following response:

 “Sorry for the confusion. If you are looking to maximize your chances of getting in the building, we strongly encourage you to select both options. If you don't get GA, you will then be entered for reserved. Your odds do not decrease by selecting both. Hope this helps!”

So it sounds like if you want to maximize your chances of getting into the building, you should select both “GA or Reserved” also also “Reserved.”

I’m sure this has been discussed, but I let this thread breathe after the announcement. 

Who posted the inhaler pic days before? It didn’t even click in my head until an hour or two after the announcement 

@Facemeltor who I have found is a poster to pay attention to

Sleeping overnight around the UC is not the same as lining up on a residential street behind Wrigley.  There is not housing around the UC, it's deserted at night, so there will either have to be security or more likely the UC will say no lining up until 6 am the morning of the show.  Not sure why anyone would stay over by the medical district.  The Hyatt House there used to be the county hospital and most everyone staying there will be visiting people in the hospital. There's a VA hospital, the county hospital, and Rush hospital nearby.  Not an awesome place to stay.  But if the earlier poster meant the Hyatt House West Loop/Fulton Market that's a great place (especially if you like higher end restaurants).  I guess some people are obsessed with spending all their time at the venue, but for anyone else, stay in the west Loop, the Loop, North Michigan Ave, etc.  The Madison bus (routes 19/20) are easy ways to get to and from the venue or the Green Line at Ashland is not a bad walk to the venue either.  If you want to stay in the hip parts of town (Wicker Park/Bucktown/Logan Square) the 50 Damen bus is easy to use to get to and from the venue.

I have a reservation at both the Marriott UIC and the Hyatt House West Loop/Fulton Market. The Hyatt House is a few hundred dollars more for the same nights - but I will decide and then cancel one of them.

Here is an example of a joke:

"Hey, guys. I heard from a guy who knows a guy who sells Jeff his hats that the boys are gonna play a 3-night stand in Hoboken! AND it's Riot Act each night in its entirety, BUT played by Dave Abbruzese sitting in! Etch it in Stone😎"

And here's an example of lying, just to stir the pot & get some laughs:

"I am hearing Citizens Bank Park shortly after Memorial Day. This is not a rumor, muchacho."

Honest question....will you ever recover this very traumatic event? How in the hell are you still saw worked up over this? It was like November.

I've been slinging sarcastic nonsense on these boards for 20+ years. I've even personally apologized to you in a dm over this bullshit. And you're still going on and on about it? You alright, man?

Completely understood, just don’t remember stations giving out tickets before they even went on sale.
I never really paid attention though.

Can't speak for fort worth. But haven't seen a cowboy hat at any rock show in Texas. Feel free to wear one at the broken spoke however!

You didn't apologize. You said "no hard feelings?" Not good enough.

(Also, watch your mouth.)

More than one person booked (thank god) refundable hotels because you lied. Not joked, LIED about PJ playing a show at CBP in Philly.

That wasn't sarcasm. You did it because you wanted to see what people would do. You even bragged about it in the Philly thread. I've got the screenshots.

You owe me & the entire board a PUBLIC apology. Then, I'll let it go. 

Until then, your word is as good as mud around here.

Not shocked to see the bad info guys high fiving each other earlier. Will be fun once the 2024 Rumor thread gets cooking. Gotta keep a mental ledger of who typically comes with the good info and who is in it for attention and/or trolling.
