    For safety reasons, maybe it will be seated. Seeing as there may be some drinking going on before the shows.

    And most of those bands don't have drunken fratheads who push there way to the front and not respect peoples space like pj has. You would get way to many people joining the 10c for the hell of it just to be at a ga concert.
    one of the reasons,im in 10c

    its rock concert...if u wanna seat...stay home... :mrgreen:

    um, where did i say i wanted a seat? i really dont care either way but it could affect some of my shorter friends :D

    just pointing out something that has not been mentioned, thats all

    and for the record, large place like that i prefer seats, because i am not standing in line with 5000 fucking manaics that would sit in a line for 20 hours to be 3 inches closer to the stage... i asked security at the vic what time the fiorst guy arrived and he said 5am... that to me is insane, and i dont feel like battling those fucking people to get a decent seat, i prefer drinking in the parking lot :lol:

    well..there aren't too many people who i couldn't shove out of my way on the way to the front of the stage..so GA would be ok :mrgreen::mrgreen:

    but...when people step on my Air-Jordans, i get very hostile..so maybe GA isn't ok :mrgreen::mrgreen:

    ...oh..and if you're smart..you light up 2 joints..one for the head(good stuff) and one to pass around(ok stuff). :lol:

    Huh?

    That makes no sense...

    For all you speculating... the three shows they played at Bill Graham last tour were GA, the place holds just under 9gs...

    A few thousand shy of a big-market venues? You realize you have created a range that is probably closer to the venue size itself? You english is nonsensical. So, again anyone that actually knows, how big is the spectrum? 5gs? 7gs? 10gs? 27gs?(since someone wants to subtract a few thousand from major venues and call it good).

    Huh?

    I've read the Spectrum holds 19K.

    Many big-market arenas, including Philly's Wachovia Center and the one in Chicago, hold closer to 21K.

    17-18,000 which is a about a couple (means 2) of thousand less than most major indoor hockey/basketball venues. got it now?
