What a fantastic venue. knocks spots off the likes of the MEN and Newcastle Metro. Got to agree abound the sound system as well. Whatever band/artist you like, if they play there you have to go!

Springsteen was brilliant. You don't get many chances to see the E Street Band at an indoor concert these days. Some very strange/rare choices of songs, from opening with "roulette" to "thundercrack" which I can't recall him playing anywhere in the last thirty odd years! Wonderful night which will live in the memory for a very long time.

What a hero.
You've changed my mind and put me in my place, I've only been getting my out of bed, rain or shine, for the last forty-odd years.

More fool you

When the LCC starting looking at arenas there were many thoughts about what to build. The original concept was to be the standard bowl configuration which would have supported ice hockey. The new arena though was built for acoustics and performance in mind. However i do believe it could be used for basketball quiet easily with floor seating.

As for the ice hockey idea, there are plans in place to build an ice skating rink on the car parks of Elland road. Its been mooted to be between 1000 and 3000 seats with the ability to expand should it be required. I think that would be more than big enough should we create a franchise

Crack of dawn Damo?
