    Yeah,
    There is no blocking and it has its own lane to get out. If you don't want a sometimes 2-3 (or 4) hour wait to get out it's well worth the price.

    Don't scare them. It's not 4. The worst I've seen is 2.

    Heya gang.

    I'm sorry if I missed something but...

    I'm taking a bus from NYC to Hartford on Friday, rent a car at the airport and go to the show. On Sat gonna go to Mansfield and stay there until Tuesday.

    I was looking around for hotels or any other places to crash. Couldn;t find any... Where are you planning to park the car? Next to Picadilly and then get the shuttle? Tents? Where? Other options? :):)

    PS: Can't wait... :)

    any thoughts from the Mansfield "locals" (more likely someone from the surrounding area) on where i should be looking to book a hotel room for the Mansfield shows? will likely venture into Boston on the 29th between shows so somewhere in between perhaps, i was thinking (yes/no?!). any and all suggestions are appreciated,...

    p.s. is the option of leaving the car a few miles from the venue and taking a cab a reasonable/realistic/recommended one to avoid the "$40 VIP Parking" rape not to mention the traffic scenario i've heard so much about?

    :D

    Good luck finding a cab.... I would have one scheduled ahead of time if you can.

    Is walking to Picadilly's from Red Roof Inn, then catching the shuttle to and from the venue, then walking back to Red Roof Inn a good idea?

    I parked my car at the Mcdonalds down the street about a 15 minute for the Tom Petty show (2) weeks ago.

    If you don't mind walking a little bit.
    You will save $40 that way.
