I assume Gibson amphitheatre is an indoor venue? Or is it? The name Gibson AMPHITHEATRE confuses me (wikipedia ref: An amphitheatre is an open-air venue used for entertainment and performances.) ???
ahhhhhhhhhh

You are completely mental. It’s one of the single best sounding and most comfortable venues in all of SoCal. Plus, there’s not a bad seat in the house.

Used to be outdoors once upon a time “Universal Ampitheatre” but too many complaints from the neighbors made them enclose it.

Might there be a free beer tent with Bud light wheat like last year , or should i just get hammered before the show?
