Welcome back bigguy. - would think an opportunity to sell ~30,000 vs 17-19k (which is I assume what ISWII would approx. hold for concerts), would attract a concert or two over the summer. As others have said no matter where the stadium went, there are a lot of outdoor/stadium venues within 50-100K all around us and we don't want to take away from Copps and we don't want concerts every other weekend in a residential area of which WH would have been in part too. For an amateur stadium, the current IW hosted some of the best bands to ever exist in Floyed and Rush. Than you have a promoter in BC who always wanted to host a concert at IW but council wouldn't spend the 300k to prep her for concerts. That was some 7 years ago. I woyuld think we could have made that back and then some. Too bad. A concert would have been a great way to close down IWSI.
