Aurora - NWOntario - 05-27-2013
Hey,
Anyone know how this venue in Aurora works? Is the entire pavilion GA? My friends and I are going to Pearl Jam in Wrigley, and it doesn't seem smart to miss out on the Hip in Wayne and Garth's hometown...

It looks like it's entirely GA. Is there any easy way to get to the show from Chicago and back in the same night? We're also going to Wrigley but flying in and are not renting a car.

No clue. We're renting a car; I'll keep you posted if we've got extra space (for how many?).

about an hour drive from the northside with normal traffic issues.

It looks like the Metra runs from Central Station in Chicago right to the venue and it's only $6.75z. We have eight people going so that's probably our best bet.
Did you get Wrigley tickets? Six of us are splitting three reserved pairs and one got GA. I hate this new 10c lottery. As much of a pain as the old system was, I was 36/36.

Oh, that's good to know.
And yeah...I hate it, too. I got shut out of Wrigley and London; Wrigley I kind of understood, but LONDON??? Anyway, I got tickets to Wrigley from the public onsale and they're actually better than some of the Ten Club seats--section 25, row 4--but I'm still working on London. Prior to this: out of 32 shows, 19 were with Ten Club tickets (not counting the Vic...yeah, I was at the Vic) and I never got shut out once. Crashes can continue forever as far as I'm concerned if the upshot's me getting tickets.
