Any gig I've been too i've always tried to get public transport or a taxi due to the risk of leaving my car and hassle of getting parked.

There's also the issue of the cost of parking, especially in city centres. I seem to recall parking in Wembly in 2007 cost £15 (though it may have been £10?) - and we couldn't even leave the car there past midnight. So that's something else to consider - as I seem to remember the car park I used for the London one in 2008 (was it excel arena?) also closed at midnight. Obviously that isn't always the case and parking has been free at some but generally especially if it's a city I'm unfamiliar with I find parking can often be a bit costly - and I am someone who prefers to go by car for the convenience!
