[creedfan]

Anyone going to the Chicago show?

[hotforscott]

i am, it's my 3rd show. i have never been to chicago though. do you live there.

[creedfan]

Yes I do live in Chicago, about 2 miles from All-State Arena! I assume you'll be in town for the show?

[hotforscott]

yes, we are driving 10 hours to see them. it's my christmas present. we are driving down the 28th, staying the 29th and drving back the 30th. both of the other concerts i saw were here in town. what are you gonna wear to wait outside to get in. i want to be on the rail again so i know i have to be bundled. any tips are appreciated. i have a pile of print outs already of great tips on going to this concert. i have a lot of research to do on the venue. have you ever been to allstate arena.

I have been to All-State and its a huge place. I've never seen Creed there though. You and your husband are driving up? I've never had to wait in line at All-State so I don't know what to expect. You said you found some tips about the venue, would you mind giving me the link to where you found that stuff? I am wondering if All-State lets you tailgate.

i just got some advice from other members, not particularly about the venue, just what to ask when i call. i will find the post and let you know. they gave me a list of what to ask and get all the info. that i will need. it said it seated around 15,000 on their website and that is about what the arena here seats. i have been meaning to call and find out all the info. i can. i know here they had about 20 doors to get in, and we had to find the one to the floor, some have more then one to the floor, i know there are the armbands also to get on the floor. what sucked about here was they had a separate section for floor bands and for alchohol bands so we had to wait in 2 diff. lines. i have heard they will put them on you while you are waiting outside sometimes too. i will post which thread has the tips and also give you the info. i find out once i call.

my husband was going to come wih me, but he can't take off work so it's me and my sister.

[creedfan]

Thanks, I appreciate it. My gf and I are looking forward to this concert!

[hotforscott]

i know it's gonna be a blast. i cannot wait. have you been to any other creed shows. still looking for the post with the info. if i don't find it, i will just post what i find out.

[creedfan]

I've never been to a Creed show. Its one concert i've always tried to get to but it never worked out for me, until now. By the way, it will be cold in Chicago that day, it may even be snowing so be prepared. Last time I waited outside for a concert in Chicago (which was Korn), I had like 5 layers of clothing on. Not to mention drinking beer to keep my warm!

i know i am gonna die in the cold weather. i know i have to bundle up, but it's gonna suck on the inside because i like to be able to move and not have to worry about all I have brought in with me. with all of the pyro i know i need to shed some clothes once i get inside. i will have to put a game plan together. congrats on your first creed show. it is the best and you will have the time of your life. are you guys on the floor?

[creedfan]

Yep floor seats. I am thinking her and I can trade off going to the beer line and to the car to put our stuff away

[hotforscott]

the main key was to make friends with the people aound you so you could have them hold your place in line and then go put everything in your car right before the doors open. i may have to do that with my clothes.

I'm going to email the village of rosemont and see if they can shed light on this stuff as well.
