Bon Jovi Fans!!!!

Last night, opening night at the ROCK in Newark was AMAZING.

Chemical Romance was on till about 8:15 or so...and then it was Bon Jovi till 11:20...

It was an amazing show!!! Anyone going...have a great time!

ETA my Parking Information:

Mass transit:
Yes, it is very easy for mass transit and I recommend - you are across the street from Newark Penn Station so if you are coming from NY or anywhere else in NJ you will have it nice coming into Newark.

Driving:
Ok, so for parking - it was not as bad as they said it was GOING to be on TV. I work there, and you could ALMOST not tell a difference. My bro's GF was able to PREPAY her parking by going onto the pru center site and she got into VIP parking. It was really easy and she is from NY. Took her 1 hour, 30 mins from Queens.

So - either way, driving or taking mass transit there is no issue -- reallly easy.

Enjoy the center - there are great bars called fire and ice inside and it was really beautiful.

Again, Have fun everyone!

Aside from the expense... it's actually much easier to get to than the Meadowlands. It's a 10 minute train ride from Penn Station, and 2 blocks from the station in Newark.

I think you'd be better off with taking the train if at all possible. We live less than a 15 minute drive from there, but we're taking the train to avoid the parking/traffic.
