the Hammerstein Ballroom is cheaper than 930, but its a fucking cash only bar, and theres NO ATM in the whole building. and no sign warning of this upon entry.

It's more than most venues in and around DC, and I'm pretty sure the Trocadero and TLA in Philly have cheaper beers. I remember not being surprised last time I went to them both.

ahh, but you have to deal with random philly drinking laws/regs.  i was at the magnet show last year at the troc, and main floor was cash only, upstairs accepted cards (wait, as i think about it, i think they were only serving alcohol upstairs).  in any event, the very next night, both upstairs and downstairs bars were serving and accepted cards.  was at the flaming lips show at electric factory, and you could only drink in this roped off area at the side of the venue.
 
 as for prices. . i don't really remember.

in pittsburgh you could only drink in the roped off areas for all ages shows. have no idea why they change it nightly in philly
 
 see, back home normal was $2 for a bottle of yuengling. at the clubs it was $4. so twice as much. dc is at least $3.50, so $6 seems about right to me

I disagree, I've never had a $6 Yuengling at a show in DC before. I'm pretty sure it wasn't $6 last time I was there, which wasn't that long ago.

I'm not sure what you're talking about $2 for a Yuengling. I can get a 12 pack at Giant for $7.99. Is it $2 if I only buy an individual bottle?

PA has some weird laws. I know at an all ages show at the Electric Fatory, you can only drink in that area off to the side or on the balcony. I think prices were slightly cheaper than 9:30's previous prices.
