  Ahhhh, Camden NJ.  The garden spot of the Garden State...

Favorite part about Camden any time I go is the sign that reads: "Camden, experience the rebirth"
 
 It really makes you think.
 
 But in all seriousness, Tweeter gives you a cool view of Philly, they are cool with traffic and tailgating and i have had good times there.  Just drive as fast as you can to get the hell out of there.

camden in NOT a good area

They didn't really impress me until the song "Videotape". I'd give the show a solid B.

so you're telling me camden is a nice place?  still didn't look that nice when i drove through last month on my way into philly.
 
 i wasn't posting to be like "oh noes, don't go there"... it's just a really fucked up story that happened to take place in camden.

camden is indeed a cesspool, i was just hoping that a better (and more recent) story would be used to prove the point.

I haven't been to the Camden venue in a few years but what we did was park in Philly and take the ferry across the river to that amphitheater. Then after the show you catch the ferry back and drive home from Philly down I-95.  Once we did the parking on the Jersey side and that turned out to be a colossal cock-up getting out of there. Just don't do it that way. Park on the PA side, take the ferry, and return home to DC from the PA side.

That's what I always do.  You can hang out in Philly all day, then take the ferry and be at the venue in a matter of minutes.

  Thank you for contacting Nissan Pavilion regarding your experience on Sunday night. Due to the torrential rain storm, multiple road closures  
 and a late-arriving crowd led to delays for some music fans entering the parking lot at Nissan Pavilion. While we have no control over  
 Mother Nature, we certainly are disappointed that some fans did not make it to the venue.
 
 
 As a consolation, we would like to offer you complementary lawn tickets to Radiohead?s performance at the Susquehanna Bank Center in  
 Camden, NJ on August 12th. We apologize for any inconvenience you experienced Sunday night and hope that this free ticket offer helps to  
 make up for it.

LOL! What were they thinking? I suspected the anticipated the negative responses to swift and severe. You expect me to travel to NJ on workday to watch a concert on the lawn. How classy is that?

To be fair, name any major venue that is 'in a good area.'  Up to five years ago MCI area was shite, RFK is shite, I live in SW and its still looking Shite, H Street, U Street six years ago, etc. Camden is just another city that planned urban renewal through a stadium, no?
