    Last year we hung out on the porch at Finn McCool's until hitting the parking lot and then did Buffalo Wild Wings afterwards. It was a good time and both restaurants are in a shopping center directly across from the amphitheatre.

    Pretty sweet set last year too, Warehouse to Ditch to Grey Street to end the main set was great.

    We're going to head down Friday night so we have a full day in the area Saturday and then head back to Baltimore Sunday whenever we wake up.
    Definitely want to try to catch up w/ some Ants

    Might have to make the trip for Billy Joel in June as well. Saw him in Raleigh about a year ago and he sounded great.

    Pulled premium seats
    Doesn't seem like they turn down many people that are willing to pay for premium

    Does anyone know how high the seat numbers go? I'm in 103, seat 23. Wondering if that is all the way to the left of the stage?

    Scored two pit myself this morning. Does anyone know if these are will call only? It said when I bought them that I chose will call but when I look at the tickets on the ticket master app it says they will be available via USPS. Not sure what to make of it. Anyway, its a great venue and usually a pretty good set-list. Looking forward to it.

    I used LN and they only had a will call option. I greatly prefer to have hard copy tickets mailed for a number of reasons but that wasn't an option on LN. Ticketmaster usually allows more USPS mailing so if you bought it through TM and selected the USPS option, you should get them in the mail. If you elected "Will Call" they're will call of course.

    Man don't tell people about Finns, I don't want it to be too crowded ...thats the spot we always stop at prior to the show. Pretty good food and drinks.

    Also, the past two years we had no issue with a smaller group tailgating in the lots...no grills or tents tho.

    Snagged a pair of pit for the show this morn. See y'all in July

    anyone not on the oceanfront, unless you're willing to pay. i usually recommend the red roof. good location, and red roofs are afforable while still being pretty nice

    https://www.redroof.com/property/Vir...-I-264/RRI093/

    its a little bit of a drive, so that's assuming you have a car. trust me though, its worth it to stay a little bit away from the craziness in the middle of summer

    Stayed at this Candlewood Suites last year and it was a decent deal/room and fairly close to the venue.

    Seat assignments are up.
    Section 102 Row C
    Seating chart looks like there are small section between the 100 sections and the stage
    Is that correct?

    Yep - the GA Pit.

    It's maybe like 20-25 rows deep at this venue, not nearly as big as say Bristow... 102C should be a great seat.

    Wondering if anyone has ever had any luck with the campgrounds around the area. Bringing a big group, wanted to rent a condo in VB but obviously rates are at their peak during this time.

    But saw a couple campgrounds with some cabin options that seemed interesting. North Landing? And your run of the mill KOA. Just like anything else, its thirty minutes or so, away from the venue. Felt like it could be a good spot on a budget. I know how those campgrounds can pick up a strong family vibe though. Definitely want to avoid getting in the middle of that.

    never stayed at them, but driving by them all the time when I used to live there - seemed pretty family oriented. you can camp at first landing state park I think, its cheap and close to the beach

    Thinking about going to this show. Can anyone tell me how many seats are in a row? Don't want to get stuck buying tix way off to the side.
