We have a sign (Ram On Please!) and my daughter was wondering the best times to hold it up. Any suggestions? First time seeing him so I am not sure when he stands and takes it all in. Thanks!
You can hold it up when he takes it all in, but I'd also suggest later when he reads the signs and comments on them. I think it's after "We Can Work It Out" and before "Another Day" or somewhere around then in setlist. Then, hold it up again at end of "Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite!" which is right before he starts "Something" on the ukulele. Good luck!

Thanks for the great tips! Really appreciate it. Silly question... is there a set point that he takes it all in?

Yes, it's early in the show before he takes his jacket off. Can't remember for sure....maybe after "All My Loving"?

No problem, hope you get to hear "Ram On". I've been lucky enough to hear him play impromptu version in the past and it's great!

Welcome To Seattle Paul
-
What time are most getting to the show? I am hoping to get there by 7:30 at the latest. Fingers crossed that traffic isn't five times worse than I'm expecting.
-
Went to the other Washington ( as in D.C.) concert last Friday night where it rained some prior to him getting started. You guys out west have the best of both worlds with the retractable roof. Enjoy it!!!!!!!!!!

I know this area really well from attending Mariners/Seahawks Games. You're going to be in traffic hell if you wait until 7:30pm. I'm going down at 4:30pm but that's because I'm tailgating. I wouldn't get there any later 6pm to get in line for the gate's opening at 6:30pm.

In both the Washington and Milwaukee concerts, the gates opened 45 minutes to an hour late. In Washington it was because rain and storms delayed Paul's arrival, thus delaying the sound check. In Milwaukee it was because there were a lot of instrument problems discovered during the soundcheck which delayed the opening of the gates. So don't expect that just because it says gates are going to open at 6:30 that they will. The delay was well worth it but you do need a bit of patience. At least the weather looks like it will be beautiful in Seattle -- 82 and sunny! Enjoy!!!!!!!

I have to wait for a babysitter for my youngest so I can't leave my house any earlier than 5:45. Usually takes me 25 minutes to get there with no traffic. I would LOVE to get there earlier but it is not meant to be.

Cool, thanks. My husband works a block away from Safeco so I drove him in and hope to take his monthly parking spot right by the park I think on Colorado or Utah. Crossing fingers that it doesn't fill up before I get there. If I can't I'll do the Safeco parking and pay way too much. I have a six year old so I am not going to drag her a mile Where are you parking?

I drove my husband to work this morning right near Safeco. My daughter and I went to the stadium and peeked in from the right field entrance and saw the stage, including the elevated platform. We are so so so excited! I have no idea how to post a pic or I would ops:
