Went to to a couple concerts there as well and of course Blossom right there too. It was a neat place. Got a lot of flak for being in the wilderness and winter driving in that area was a ton of fun too!! For folks from the south the Coliseum was better to go to not having to go all the way to the city. But it was a nice place. I agree.

Well glad you got to see it then.I came up from south of there and it cut the driving time in half.The only new place you would like is the new baseball stadium.I still like the old stadium best, but the baseball stadium---- they did that very well.
