I know this was posted just recently,but what is the best and quickest route to Merriweather from the D.C. beltway???
-
Helicopter
-
teleportation.
-
Psychosomatic possession of someone who's already there.

This alternate route from the Merriweather site worked for me for Neil Young show and others for the Killers show... It avoids the snarl at 29 and Broken Land parkway, and you can imagine you are coming from Charm City :D The only other option is take the long way around via Frederick and I-70
Alternate route from the Washington DC area:
Take DC Beltway 495 to I-95 North towards Baltimore.
Pass exit 38B, go two more exits.
Exit onto Route 100 West.
Proceed to Route 29 South.
Turn right onto South Entrance Road.
Turn left onto Symphony Woods Road.
Follow to Main Parking Area.

Follow Connecticut Ave north, thru Kensington, to left on Georgia Ave. Take GA Ave up towards Olney. Just before Olney, turn Right onto Old Baltimore Rd., which is a short cut to 108-North-East. Right on 108 North. Take 108 North to Rte. 32 East. Take Exit for Cedar Lane North. Take Cedar Lane to a right on Little Patuxent Parkway. LPP takes you to Merriweather. Park in Columbia Mall.

Thanks, sounds like the plan........

how far is the walk from the columbia mall to mpp if you park at the mall?
-
It's right across the street.
-
what are the food and drink options at mpp? standard stale popcorn/overcooked hamburgers/over priced beer as every other big venue?
-
that's about right; fill-up on dinner before you get there. Or else bring about an extra $30 with you to "dine" at MPP. That said, though, MPP is now an IMP venue, presumably a bit-more fan/consumer-friendly than Clear Channel-Nissan.
-
IMP has improved the food choices out there... Sushi , Vegatarian, etc.
