Beach Boys at Merriweather / Info Please

A friend of mine is good friends with the guy managing this tour and he just offered me free tickets to this show.  So a few questions for anyone that might be able to help me out.

Site says doors at 6:30….based on this, what time do you think the show would start?

Also, I'd be driving there from downtown at 6:00 right after I get off work.  Any route suggestions?  I've been to Merriweather exactly once (radiohead) and it was a traffic nightmare.

It is usually not a traffic nightmare if you hit 175 (Little Patuxent Parkway) heading west towards the mall/MPP from 95.

Show's at 8.

Also backbar type early admission at 5:30 today:

Thanks to you both.

will it be a Mike Love show or a Brian Wilson show? we shall see.

You can also take 32 west to cedar lane (the exit past 29).  Take cedar lane to broken land parkway and turn left.  Turn right onto little patuxent parkway (the next light), go a few lights, and turn left at union jacks.  There's a parking lot there where you can park for merriweather.

If traffic is really super terrible.

Have fun at the show!

Sorry, take the cedar lane exit to the right.

I usually take 29->32->Broken Land Pkwy->MPP (or the mall, just past the MPP entrance)
