I'm going to the Charlotte show now!!! I've got a 7th row ticket and am so excited. I heard from a friend of mine who works at the Westin downtown that the band was staying there... but that was a month or two ago, plans could have changed. I second what Merf said... the university area as a whole will be insane with traffic, so leave plenty early. That entire area is really bad during normal rush hour... it's downright aweful when you throw in a concert at Verizon. I live near downtown in the Dillworth/Myers Park area now, so I'm thinking that if I leave by 6:30-7 I'll be ok hopefully.
