SMF - Just Installed!
Gaz:You going to check out Cream at Madison Sq. Gdn next month? Is it totally sold out?
I'd like to see Cream and McCartney. I looked at the seating chart on Ticketmaster for MSG. Looks bigger than anything I have ever been to.
Well, maybe not biggest then. For concerts at SBC, Pac Bell, when you include field seating, how many squeeze into the park? 50,000?

If it's "in the round" maybe a little more.

If it's "in the round" maybe a little more.I was told the sold-out Green Day show last week was in the neighborhood of 42K, so having people on the field balances out the lack of bleachers. Maybe a few thousand less when they have seating rather than GA on the field (Green Day had the latter).Also, Shoreline is bigger than MSG--around 22K. 8000 in the seats, 14000 on the lawn.

Just got my Amazon shipment with CD and DVD from Royal Albert Hall. Immediately popped in CD. I thought I knew my Cream. NOT. Never heard most of disc one. Pressed Rat and Wart Hog; Sleepy Time, Time; Deserted Cities of the Heart. GREAT guitar.
