    Tough call. All depends - had this situation come up for the Spectrum shows. I had to go final show of the Spectrum with PJ over WS.

    Anybody can fill me in on the tailgate situation at Citizens Bank for Monday (Bruce)

    How's the scene? How much to park? Time they let u in?

    I check out of my Hotel Monday at noon and plan to get there as early as possible. Scored (2) GA's a lil while ago, couldn't pass up the opportunity to see him that close and cross off another ballpark off my list

    Thanks

    Tailgating is "prohibited" from Citizens Bank park lots. You want to find another lot if you want tail gating. Go to the Phillies and Eagles sites. They have parking maps of the area.
    Alright, alright, alright!

    Not sure what time the lots open. They recently built an entertainment complex where the old spectrum was (xfinity live http://xfinitylive.com/), which is pretty awesome. Parking is usually 20 bucks

    Tailgate scene is usually good. I know for past Springsteen shows there has been the 'B Street Band', which often plays outside of the arena a few hours before the show. They're corny as hell, but actually not bad.

    This weekend is gonna be awesome

    Nope. My brother in law has a connection at live nation...was able to get my tix upgraded to VIP. Pretty fired up now.

    My plan is to get into the venue around 6. Check things out and settle in for PJ

    Go to the Linc lot or FDR. Just know I think FDR is now ticketing people for being parked there past 6pm. It's bullshit.

    I wouldn't mind seeing Santigold or Run DMC. And I think the TBD is now Gary Clark Jr. I think. If it is, I definitely wanna see that.

    yeah, might as well let him play LF. from what I read he has no shot at sticking there at the major league level, but at this point who cares? give him a shot. he can't be any worse than mayberry/pierre/nix.

    doesn't nix remind you of some douchey meathead who's an over the top MMA fan. you know the type...barrell chested, affliction v-neck shirt, awful tats. we should just call him affliction from now on
