    There's a lot is at Chestnut St and Garrett Rd (that's the free one, right?) ... from there just follow Ludlow straight down to the Tower.

    Perfect - exactly. If you go up 69th St. from the Tower, take a left at Chestnut and the lot will be right there on your left.

    It seems like there are going to be a bunch of people who have Friday during the day before the Eddie show to spend in/around Philly...Since there isn't an official pre-party due to the location of the Tower, I think it would be fun to try and meet up for lunch, or go somewhere during the day. Maybe end up at that bar near the Tower after...

    Thoughts? Suggestions?

    ***UPDATE***

    Some of us are going to the Meat Puppets show at noon...eventually making it back to the Waterford...if you want to try and meet up with us, PM me for my #!

    Meat Puppet's are playing noon time? :o
    Then Vedder at night?

    Great Friday night I must say! :mrgreen:
  • bump :-) it's almost thursday...

    OK people i need some info!

    i'm coming from NYC. I can't leave work too early... am I ok showing up close to the show for my 10c tix??? when do they conduct the lottery? what time does ed actually take the stage???

    If i amtrak to center city, what is the best way to get to the venue? I have a friend who is meeting me. She can drive us from center city... but given possible traffic, and what i hear is a pretty awful parking situation... would it be BETTER to take the subway? My philly friend says taking the subway home late thru west philly is kind of a sketchy idea, and that maybe driving is "safer".

    LOTS OF QUESTIONS. THANKS FOR THE HELP IN ADVANCE!!!

    Hey everyone, just wanted to drop an FYI that someone in the TenClub with not such a great number is going to get upgraded to some quality seats Friday night.

    I just got a new job (which is good news), the bad news is that it's keeping me in NYC tomorrow until about 8pm so obviously I can't make the show. I contacted TC earlier this week to let them know and that I understand that I won't be getting my money back but I want the tix to be used. They informed me that a TC member with a recent number will be getting upgraded.

    I've had some people do some great things for me with PJ tix so I feel like I'm giving back a bit here. Good luck to those of you that go, hope one of you gets my tix. I'm a 166,xxx number by the way.

    Enjoy!

    If you're in the car by 4pm from 30th St station, you should be able to arrive and park at the Tower easily.

    But the subway is super easy as well. At 30th St, just take the Market/Frankford subway line west to its end, which is 69th street, right at the venue.

    Nice meeting a bunch of you at Waterford -- man, it was weird smelling smoke in a bar again; my eyes were burning -- and inside the venue. Can't wait to tee it up again tonight.

    I kind of felt bad for the locals who were sitting at the bar and then got overwhelmed by PJ Nation. :D

    Last night I was on my phone the whole time working out a bunch of ticket stuff. Tonight I focus on beer and jukebox.

    Same here. It'll get crowded a little after that, as people will have received their 10-C tickets.
