If we go, I'll just get last minute lawn tickets. The lawn is easier for a four year old to fall asleep on than a seat. She ought to be able to fall asleep during a Nick Lowe set, for sure.

good plan - lawns will likely be going for below face on CL in the days leading up to the show.

Most definitely...However, seeing Wilco in the middle of the lawn, something's kind of missing. IMO.

Is being on the front of the lawn ok at Merriweather? How does it compare to being on the front of the lawn at Wolftrap? We got there early and got front and center on the lawn for Wilco (and others) at Wolftrap and it was fine.

Personal opinion, but I think the lawn at MPP is one of the worst lawns EVER!!!

I haven't been to a show on the lawn there since the 90's other than for FreeFest last year, but muffled sound, packed to the gills, pretty disconnected from the show, etc.

I much prefer the lawn at WT to MPP as it's so much mellower.  No one ever stands through the main act at WT.  But I saw the M3 Metal Fest from the lawn at MPP this year and thought the sound was fine and the crowd was pretty laid back.

I got GA floor after about a 5-minute wait in the waiting room shortly after 10:00 this morning. As least, I think it's GA floor and not GA lawn. It just says "Presale GA". That's GA floor, right? Please say yes.

I'm not hard pressed to be within arm's length so I bounced around the pavillion and settled for Left Center row CC.

Not the greatest but hardly worth complaining about. Best of all it's all done. Can't wait.

I pulled center pavillion while bouncing around. Row MM, methinks.
