    Wheels up around 730 from Chicago to Pittsburgh its a quick trip but such is life.  Hope for a rocking set and a better crowd than Wrigley.  My section at Wrigley was awful.  I cannot understand folks that want to sit through the show but most folks in the upper deck at Wrigley sat the whole time.

    I really wish this at the Igloo.  
    PPG has a way better acoustics than the Igloo did.

    So no poster tubes, eh?
    I have a plastic telescoping tube with a strap, but I think I won't be bringing it. I don't want to get to the door and be told I can't bring it in. 
    I've brought a poster tube into PPG many times and have never had an issue. But maybe different this time. Idk.

    Drop off the poster tube if you get one before the show at your hotel or Airbnb to avoid that hassle.

    I see quite a few of us are driving from the Philly/NJ areas. 

    If leaving tomorrow morning there calling for BAD weather (RAIN).  Just a heads-up as you may want to leave earlier, if possible.

    Me too. For those who have gone to previous shows, is this different info from prior emails from TC/TM?

    Yes, and the fact that no merch announcement was made yet makes me wonder if something is going on.....  They've given all that info out by now usually

    I see on the site they've said about the merch line, but no debut of the poster or t shirt yet

    Just got an email from PPG Paints Arena with different doors/start times. 

    Doors open: 6:30 p.m. 
    Show (opener) starts: 7:30pm. 

    Seems like there's a bit of miscommunication between the venue and Ticketmaster.
