B.A.P. concert help!?
So I'm going to a B.A.P. concert in LA in April and idk what to do about parking. My friends and I are planning to stand in line around noon so by then I'm not sure how much free parking will be available. The concert will be at the LA live Nokia theater and I know there's some parking lots near but they're like $25 and an additional $10 for staying after 9pm. So is there any good place I don't know of to park or something cheaper? we'll be staying in line for a while and the concert is about 2 hours long. Please help! Thanks:)

I went to the SMTown concert at another venue and was able to get parking because my sister had her handicap placard on there, but from what i saw it seemed People were there waaay earlier so the other parking was packed. But idid see alot of taxis dropping people off before the entrance. Try the city bus, a cab, or maybe a fanclub will be pooling in for a bus? It also depends on where you are coming from. Sorry this wasn't much help, but with theatres and concerts it's very tricky and expensive to find parking, and i don't suggest leaving it at a near by business and walking to the theater. Good Luck though and have fun at the concert!
Actually $25 for Parking around LA Live is a very good price. Especially when it appears you are going to be there for about 9 hours. Depending on what is going on at Staples, Nokia, or the Convention Center you could have some parking up to $40. But if your "friends" are going and you have 4 people even at $40 each person needs to pay about $10 for parking. If $10 is going to break the budget, then perhaps a concert isn't the best idea.
The fact is that you are not going to find any cheap parking near LA Live if there is an event going on, anything below the $25 is going to be a few blocks at least away. You also have options such as the Metro Rail Expo Blue Line that you can take to the area and then walk a couple of blocks. But here you would just have to find a parking lot along the route, but like Downtown LA most are going to be paid lots.
Here's the deal: There is SOME limited free parking west of the 110 freeway, north and south of 11th Street. However, you have to think of total cost. What's cheaper, $25 for parking, or $200 for a broken window and stolen stereo? The area around there is high crime.
You want to be really safe? Park at the Red Line parking on Lankershim in Universal City, then take the Red Line subway to Metro/7th. Cost is $1.50 each way.
