Why would someone want to see the same exact setlist back to back?

because they won't. 

thanks for playing.

Yes they will, minus maybe a song or two and a "snippet" ending.

It will be more or less the same show, but will it matter if you're a fan?  Have you ever watched a movie more than once because you just enjoy it?  Couple that with the fact that they only come around every 4-5 years.  I'd say see it while you can.

even a song or two different <> "same exact".

I've watched a movie more than once, but I don't think I could watch any movie on consecutive nights or twice in the same week. Same goes for a concert. But that's just me.

I'm in...Ch'ville and Vegas too! Excited to see Muse too but not so much for the Black Eyed Peas, eh, maybe I'll be surprised.

Was in the pit at a show over the summer and it IS first come, first served, however, the stage is very high, so depending on what you want to get out of the experience and/or how tall/short you are, it may or may not be for you. I plan to be there.

If you follow the Going Out Gurus chat on WaPo they are going to cover the logistical details in Thursday's chat. Probably just metro and traffic stuff. Then I'm sure they'll post a lukewarm review in the Style section later in the week.

Another subtlety this time around: the Red Zone GA tickets. Will they grant access to the inner circle?

answer: nope.

I will be there!  Hopefully the traffic will not make me miss Muse.  I think I am more excited about hearing Muse play on a crazy loud system.

i have seats so wont show up til close to showtime. metro says it will close morgan station at 1am but not sure it that applies to all the stations.

saw this on wmata.com ...
Public Transportation Schedule

Want to avoid the hassle of driving? Then hop on the Metro. Just take the Blue Line to the Morgan Boulevard Metro Station. Exit onto the sidewalk, which will be on your right side after exiting the Metro gates, opposite the parking lot exit. Follow the sidewalk for less than a mile to FedExField. Utilize Metro Trip Planner at www.wmata.com to plan your trip to FedExField from your closest Metro station or Metro bus stop.
