How often do they schedule those concerts on school nights?

Re: ONGOING: Sprint Center bookings
Sprint Center events will draw 250,000 downtown in the next week.
http://www.bizjournals.com/kansascity/n ... article_duThe events kick off Wednesday morning, marking the arena’s fifth anniversary. Highlights include an NBA preseason game Wednesday between the Washington Wizards and the Miami Heat, for which a few tickets remain, as well as sold-out concerts by Justin Beiber on Friday, the Red Hot Chili Peppers on Saturday, and Madonna, who will perform her first concert in Missouri on Tuesday.

Re: ONGOING: Sprint Center bookings
What a failure of an arena. Should have been a surface lot.

Re: ONGOING: Sprint Center bookings
250,000 seems to be a stretch. Unless they have suddenly expanded the arena to 25,000 seats I don't see how they get 100,000 for 4 events. Especially since it appears that for a concert or two they are not selling tickets behind the stage.
So the other events going to draw over 150,000?
Alot of people? Yes. But 250,000, hard to believe.

Re: ONGOING: Sprint Center bookings
I guess they are expecting a lot of people for the non-concert, non-game events celebrating Sprint Center's anniversary.
Events connected with the Sprint Center shows include Wednesday’s NBA Nation, part of the NBA’s grassroots marketing effort, and the Grammy Museum Experience, which will honor the arena’s anniversary and be hosted by AEG CEO Tim Leiweke and The Grammy Museum Executive Director Bob Santelli. The Grammy Museum Experience is an interactive area that demonstrates music’s creation, technology, history and other facets.

A I said, I don't think those events would draw 150,000 people.

Re: ONGOING: Sprint Center bookings
Fleetwood Mac must have run out of money - they formed again and Sprint Center got them (STL didn't).
Sprint Center still doing a good job booking events. Currently 19 non-sports events booked, more than most arenas - Madison Sq/NYC and Staples/LA only two I found with more.

SC was ranked 4th busiest for first half of 2012.

Re: ONGOING: Sprint Center bookings
That's a big room for them. Black Keys were at Grinders last time and the Lips were at Liberty Hall.
I did NOT enjoy my one concert experience at Sprint, but may go to this (if cheap tix are available).
