    If anyone wants to split tix I could put you up, I live in Hollywood...

    But to your question..The Wiltern is on Western Ave and Wilshire..a decent priced hotel about 2 miles away...

    The Wiltern is in the Wishire district..almost Koreatown.

    Yeah, the area around there isn't the greatest. It isn't horrible, but it definitely isn't ideal for tourists. There was a murder three blocks from the Wiltern back in September that spooked me because I used to park in the area of the murder for shows at the Wiltern.

    But, I'm hoping it was a one off. It's the only one I've heard of in the area in the last two years.

    If it was me, I wouldn't really want to stay in that area. I'd probably stay more west like near Westwood or even Santa Monica. There is a parking garage right next to the Wiltern that is well lit.

    theres ALWAYS 'stuff' going on right there! and i agree, stay elsewhere-hollywood/santa monica or even by the airport. sunset blvd best western is cool too. and that parking structure belongs to ralphs and charges ten bucks on show days!!!
