Heading down for a concert tomorrow night ,, any places preferred over others when locking up around there ?

Your best bet is to go as far as you can in order to be able to lock to a city rack with 2 U-locks.
But as long as you lock properly to something solid with a U-lock, you should be OK with the racks directly across the street. Thieves generally don't start digging into U-locks when there are eyes on the street, although they do seem to like the cover of a crowd for cutting cable locks.
Having biked to the Metro plenty of times, I have simply locked to a bike rack near the venue. I use a U-lock for front wheel/frame and a cord to loop around the back wheel, FWIW.
In truth, I've probably also locked to a street pole, though many here would say that is what "suckers" do. :)
