Hung out next to the venue, hearing the music, and the waves. One of my better moments. Love this place when planned correctly- there is a little beach, even.

It's a cool spot, but the seating area has no grade so you spend a lot of time staring at the backs of heads. Getting to the place is a trek too. We left before the encore just to make the walk back to soldier field parking and the escape from the parking structure as quick as possible.

Great event (Khalani) BUT THEY ORGANIZATION WAS TRASH. Just walk to the front if you see a crazy line, there was zero coordination to get people inside.
