Great Venue, Leaving a Different Story
Just got back from seeing "Van Halen" at this Venue. The show was FANTASTIC, and the venue is Top Notch. The "Only" issue, was getting out of the Parking Lot. 90 minutes to get back to I5 is a little bit of an issue. I think that more than "One-Way" out should be looked at. Just my opinion, since I have been to almost every major venue in the US.

We keep wondering why we keep coming back
We typically attend the "aging rocker" concerts at this venue (i.e. Blondie, Devo, Cheap Trick, Heart, Rush, REM, Kiss). I've got to say that the sound system and staging leave nothing to be desired. The seats are comfy, with lots of room for your neighbors to walk in front of you when they're ready for concessions. (= 5 Stars) Unfortunately, the concessions lines are way too slow, perhaps because of the wide variety of offerings? The food and beer are tasty, but we keep missing songs while waiting in line. (= 2-3 Stars) The biggest negative is traveling there. Sitting in traffic for an hour while trying to leave the freeway is ridiculous. Once off the freeway there were folks leading the way, but the light at the end of the north bound exit ramp impeded the flow. How about placing someone there to guide traffic? (0 Stars) We left yesterday's concert a half hour early to avoid the inevitable traffic jam, missing a couple of our favorite songs on purpose. Not sure we'll return soon... it would take a big name to look past the heavy traffic.
