Getting to the seats was easy and ...

Really enjoyed our time in this stadium! We were invited by my friend who is a member of Pixies so got a glimpse behind the curtains as well, but accessed the venue with everyone else walking along the surrounding streets and finding ample entry ways, easy-to-access food trucks, and easy in-and-out bathrooms and facilities. The crowd was amazing and the sunset views spectacular!
