Where will people park?  $5 three blocks from the SC doesn't sound so bad.    :shock:

LED ribbon lighting, whatever it's called, is currently in motion on the Grand side of the arena; American flags and abstract blobs are fluttering.

So can we read into that blacked out picture of a rock star holding a left handed fiddle shaped bass guitar that our first performer will be Paul McCartney?

Anyone else notice the "Hard Rock Cafe" sign in one of the renderings they showed in that video?

the only thing that confuses me is, everyone that I've talked to about the PNL said that there will be no HRC and they showed it more than once in the video... one can only hope.

Wasn't that an old rendering? I kow the arena rendering in that pic was way outdated, so I'm assuming it was just a bullshit sketch of "potential" tenants.

how many times do I have to say that three years ago some folks from HRC let it slip to me that they had started doing their site markups and figuring out all the small details about having a HRC here..they were well past deciding whether or not there would be one located here.

They got some lights on in there tonight. You can see the upper deck concourse and the main entrance concourse with the giant escalators from Grand pretty good.
