    Did PIT in Atl 2 yrs ago and honest wasn't as bad as what I had heard. Had no problems getting back in after a bathroom break and people around us were extremely nice and we're just as excited to be there as we were. Doing PIT again this year.

    i've done tons of pits all across the country, and the only one i wouldn't go back in is the camden pit

    i highly doubt this will be as bad as camden, but i'm all in for better or for worse! being one set will make it a little less of a shitshow i hope

    edit: awesome first post!

    What was so bad about Camden? Not comparable to DMB but I've been in it twice for rock shows (sold out) and it was ok.

    I think I was in lower reserved in 2014 and the pit looked like sardines. There were stories of people getting sent to the lawn due to overbooking of the pit. The way to avoid the situation is to sit tight (unfortunately). For me, the experience is pretty dependant upon who you are around. It's usually pretty good, but every once in a while it sucks. Definitely worth it.


    Pumped for Saturday

    Wetaher looking better for the weekend. Down to 10% chance of rain Saturday night. High of 84. Some ideal wetaher for a show this time of year.

    Anybody have any experience trying to snag an uber post show? Is it difficult to get one at that time? Was there a surge charge?

    Why would you imagine that? Uber/the drivers are usually aware of and around places where people are going to want rides.

    As for the surcharge, Uber itself does put one on but there'll probably be a multiplier/increased fare in place after a concert

    Now that I'm in the right thread (don't ask), I just realized this show is this weekend and I'm in Atlanta this weekend! What's the ticket situation like? What are the odds I can score a pair of lowers on the boards or on LN sometime between now and Saturday?

    Yeah, it's great. The line gets crazy so I recommend getting there early. You can also try Monday Night Brewing or Orpheus where it's not quite as hectic.
