We're going to hopefully start in The Woodlands and then we'll hit the next 7 shows, so the shows at Hollywood Bowl will be our 7th and 8th. But we're in unfamiliar venue territory....we're normally Bonner Springs, Alpine, Chicago venue people. I was hoping some of you would be kind enough to help with any info you can give about good places to stay close to the venue, tailgating or bars around the venue....info like that. It's not your typical honeymoon, but how often do you get to follow a band around for 12 days? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!!

Don't have to much to offer yo here. LA is weird in where you stay. You can stay close the venue, in downtown or Hollywood. Or by the beach in Santa Monica or Malibu. Or somewhere between, like Beverly Hills. Either way, you are going to be driving and sitting in traffic.
I have not been to the Bowl, but do know from others that the venue is good, not great. The closer to the stage, the better. Parking is shit. There is a curfew, so the show will end no later then 11 each night. The fine for going over is insane.
Everyone here is stunned that HB is getting 2 nights. The consensus here was that after last years show was that the band would not return to the Bowl. So maybe the band likes it more then we thought. Either way, this the tour closer so people will be looking at these shows for something special.
