Awesome summer venue in the CLT. Kinda like Verizon Wireless Amp but much smaller, meaning there is not really a bad seat in the house. The lawn is spacious so good view no matter where you decide to lay out your blanket. Of course, like every concert venue, the drinks are pricey with a beer running you $9 to $11 bucks. I'd advise come early and grab a brew at one of the many neighboring beers, like VBGB. Then head over to the venue afterwards.
The place holds about 3,000 folks so leaving is not a big issue either after the show - be aware the entire venue is uncovered so rain may damper your evening.
Yelp tip right here - for the bands you like but not love, my friends and I will head over to the Wet Willies patio - you can't see the band due to a strategically-placed black curtain but you are about 30 feet away and can hear everything crystal clear.
