~Official~ Jiffy Lube Live - Bristow, VA - 2012 thread!
 
I will bring the natty Light

:trap



Traffic on 29 getting into the venue shouldn't be bad at all

:trap:trap:trap


They will play IBYU and Raven again here like they did in 2009

:trap:trap:trap:trap:trap


But all kidding aside, I'm definitely looking forward to this since they skipped over this place in 2010 for Nats Park! The date for this show looks like it'll be 6/16/2012 (a Friday) - not officially confirmed yet, but pretty close

If the tailgate ban had not been lifted, would you all have still gone to this show?

Well, being that the tailgate ban has been lifted, who wants to throw a partY?

This venue is always a big, fat maybe for me. I avoid it as much as possible. I'd rather go to a/the week day shows at Camden then sit in that traffic.

Pumped they're coming back to Nissan this year. That was my home venue for a longgggggggggg time, can't wait to get back.

Reallllly hoping that they don't go back to Washington. Bristow traffic is much better than the city and the venue is so much better.

see but with D.C., you can just Metro in and avoid the horrible traffic within the city limits. When I did Bristow back in '09, it wasn't bad until I got to within a half mile of the venue, then it got HORRIBLE. Plus I got near the venue around 2:30 or so, so it wasn't like the middle of rush hour or anything.

Of course the way they're expanding, 15 years from now there'll be a Rainbow Sherbet Line that extends all the way out to Bristow probably :lol

also, the OP should read 6/16/2012 (a Saturday) - I must've been a little tired when I was typing that. lol

Taking the metro after Nationals was horrible. I'll take sitting in my air-conditioned car over being crammed into a metro car with a bunch of annoying drunks.

i wouldn't have gone if the tailgate ban wasn't lifted. 11 dollar beers inside.

I'll probably end up going. Only 30 minutes from Fred.

I go to this place a lot. Is $11 really that bad for a 24 oz beer? I pay $5 or $6 for a 12oz bottle at a bar.

Traffic sucks, but it sucks going to most concert venues. 20,000 people trying to go into one road can only move so fast.

Looking forward to DMB at The Lube this summer! Glad they are coming back!!!

yes, 11 bucks for a 24 oz beer is ludicrous.

Foreverford05 02-09-2012 11:48 AM

Still think we should all party beforehand

lol at backing up 11 dollar beer prices...then again, you called it "the lube"

it's nissan bro.

Um no ... its called Jiffy Lube Live for the last 2 years (scroll up to the top). Dont get me wrong all beer prices everywhere are crazy but when you pay 5 or 6 bucks for a bottle at a bar 11 for a 24oz isnt as horrible as they make it out to be.

While it's no walk in the park, the traffic has GREATLY improved over the past few years. In my experience, especially with a few people in the car, splitting the VIP parking cost is well worth it and they get you out pretty quickly and the roads around the venue have been expanded to make it much easier to get in and out. I'm probably setting myself up for a hellish experience this year but I think the "terrible" traffic for Nissan/Jiffy Lube Live at this point isn't warranted anymore.

I think hes saying it will always be "nissan" to those that have been going there since it opened.

and if youre paying 5 or 6 bucks for a bottle at a bar, youre getting ripped off there too. why are you comparing an draft price to a bottle? makes no sense

5 bucks for a beer at a bar is a joke. anyone backing up 11 dollar beers can eat a d.

To change the topic a bit, my girlfriend and I are going to make the trip for this and VA Beach from Raleigh this summer for the first time. We have to choose on sitting on the lawn for either here or Va Beach, and I figured that you guys would have an opinion on it! I'm looking forward to seeing both shows!

ive only been to nissan once and had pavilion. put i hung out on the lawn during the opener with some friends. i thought the view was good and sound was half decent considering its the lawn. pretty empty too for an opener so if you get there early you should get solid spots

Re: ~Official~ Jiffy Lube Live - Bristow, VA - 2012 thread!
 
It will always be Nissan with the crappy one lane traffic in and out and a post-show Sheetz stop (for me). All in!
