3) SS is inconvenient to much of NO VA. Again, if Metro wasn't unreliable and bordering on worthless on weekends, this would be a different story.
this may come as a shock to you, but the world - or even this region - doesn't revolve around NoVa… not everything is going to work out for NoVa'ites.

I don't live in NO VA and I, too, hate NO VA centric residents. I brought it up because I often bitch about concerts at JLL because it's so far out in BFE, cutting off access from half the metro region, especially during a work week.
My point still remains. SS would be a much better location for shows if the Metro was in better shape.

What about the millions of dollars from taxpayers that are going towards improving MPP?

I don't really care, but one of the conditions was putting on community events
I sure as hell would not consider cover bands under that category…but Live might

Grow up.

Do IMP or Live Nation own MPP? No, of course not. IMP operates it. Seth pays for that privilege.

odd that you felt compelled to comment on this when you in fact said it's pointless?
one would think you'd let the thread die in obscurity
