Would you be so nice to contact me, as we need some info about transportation to Hallenstadion, bars, restaurants... And it would be great to meet some people there! Thanks

I'm currently living in Zurich -- just checked in here for the first time in a long time after seeing a poster for this concert on my way home tonight. (Hi there to any old-timers who might still be hanging around this place!)
The Hallenstadion is on the north side of the city. Assuming you'll be staying somewhere in the center of town, the best way to get to the arena would be with either the #11 tram to Messe/Hallenstadion, or the #10 or #14 tram to Sternen Oerlikon, which is just a couple of blocks away. All of those trams make stops at or very near the main train station; the tourist information booth at the train station should have maps of the tram system available for free.
I'm afraid I can't help you out with any restaurant recommendations (I tend to eat at home, as dining out in this city is incredibly expensive), but if you're looking for bars, the 4th and 5th districts are your best bet. Take a walk along Langstrasse, which runs perpendicular to the train tracks leading to the main station, and you're sure to find something that suits your fancy.
Hope you enjoy the concert and your trip!
