I still have St Louis tomorrow then NY/NJ shows to go to before I start my countdown for this one.
I think its going to be kind of sad, being the end of the tour for me.  It will be my 7th show of the whole tour.
Going back to real life after is going to be harsh.

 ;DHEY GUYS I'm going to the Pittsburgh show too! I'm pre-pairing my general admission kit a week a head, I figure I would a few things I'm bringing to maybe give people some ideas or suggestions on what to bring if your planning on getting in line early. Since it looks like Pittsburgh has been having hot weather, I'm bringing a travel size bottle of sunblock, & a travel size deodorant and 'm pre-paired to throw it away before going in the stadium, most of the stuff I have I will throw away before going in, I'm already pre-paired to do that, I highly suggest you do the same because NO BAGS ARE ALOAD. I'm bringing one of those recycle bags from Wal-mart, which are only, $0.50-$1, and I'm ready to throw that away too, I won't mind. I also have a book of cross word puzzles to keep me occupied, and foods that will make you go to the bathroom less often, like peanuts, and dried fruit. When I saw U2 in Lansing, MI they were not allowing any kind of bags of any size, not even camera bags either.... or VIDEO CAMERAS.

VIDEO CAMERA WARNING: When they were letting people in at the Lansing, MI show 2 people in front of me, just threw away their nice HD flip cameras they brought with them like it was no big deal, and I was shocked, but I hope they were big fans and that it was worth it for them, so that's a warning to anyone who plans to bring a video camera! DON'T BRING IT! Cause they will tell you to throw it away or get out of the line.

Um, no. :)

As for Pittsburgh, I would highly suggest that everyone add toilet paper to their GA survival kits. I've learned that often the portapods run out... Jus' sayin'.

seriously!  that was an issue in chicago - i'm thinking those packets of travel kleenex...

and, about what's allowed in the stadium - i couldn't find specific concert guidelines, but here's the security policy page.  pretty mainstream guidelines...

How about parking?

I want to avoid the main parking lot as much as possible. Any one know about any nearby parking garages? I don't mind walking a few blocks.

Need some advice... tickets available are either in Section 115 (Lower level but down the field from the stage) or Section 538 (Upper level but in line with the stage).
Which tickets are better?
