    I was able to get a couple hotel deals from being a Point Park alumnus. Sixteen years later, grad school finally paying off!

    Looking forward to some Primanti’s, Oyster House fish sandwiches, and might have to make a trip to Church Brew Works as well.

    Anyone else surprised at the lack of tickets available? I'm no stranger to using F2F to sell or 'trade up', but there have been so few tickets on F2F for these shows that it has me a bit nervous to travel without tickets in hand.
    It's all happening....

    25 years ago my fan club tickets to Pittsburgh were in the 3rd row.  They’ve moved back every time since then and now I have to scrap just to get in the building.  Still hoping for some better options but it seems like the closer we get it’s actually getting harder with fewer and fewer drops to even try for.

    I love a good dive bar. 
    I guess the point I was trying to make is that these bars will all be packed to the rafters with concertgoers. They will most likely be understaffed for the amount of people that are showing up, so , prepare to wait for everything! If you can even get in the door, that is. I hope things work out for Wishlist, wherever it ends up being located. 😃

    how about after the shows? getting uber and figure a drink or two at the bar will help the crush of getting and uber.

    I'm sure most of the places will be packed after the shows since it's a Friday night.
    Good idea to let the crowd die down before an Uber is called. I normally do that as well, or at least walk a few blocks until the crowd has been thinned out.

    The Warren is a great cocktail bar downtown and it’s open until 2am every night (even Sunday!) It’s a bit of a walk from the arena, (maybe 10 minutes walk?) but I imagine there will be people walking everywhere after the shows.
