Sprint Center Accoustics

[LenexatoKCMO]

Interesting article in the Star today about the accoustics in the Sprint Center and how they have varried per show - http://www.kansascity.com/703/story/819619.html.  Upshot seems to be that the success or failure will vary based on the technicians and that if it sucks, it's the engineers fault.  Seems to make sense.  I haven't been to a concert there yet but I have heard some negative feedback from those who have.  Anyone else have strong thoughts?

Thought the sound at The Police was OK when I saw it live. Not great. I have it on CD and it doesn't sound bad. Although, the sound for Elvis Costello (opened for Police) was brutal. I've heard that's a recurring problem at Elvis shows.

It's a sports arena, not a concert hall.  Set your expectations accordingly.

Did someone not tell AEG this? Where is our sports team?

Depends on where you're sitting.  I've been to shows where the sound is great and shows where there's a horrible echo and speaker feedback.  Some friends of mine actually left The Police (along with lots of people sitting in their section) early because the sound was so bad.  I was sitting in an entirely different area and thought it was fine.

Anything is better than having concerts at Sandstone and Kemper is not any better.

I was there Wed. night and it sounded fine to me.
