Funny names of events or venues

Postby styxfanNH » Sun Jul 24, 2005 9:57 pm

We all get a laugh over the various names of venues of all acts. With paid naming rights to buildings or events, there is not anything a band can do about them, other than play at them.

What are some of your favorite goofy named events or places that Styx, Dennis or any other band plays at?

I'll start it off with

PNC Performing Arts Center in NJ

If we had to vote from all the names, I think that Toad Suck Daze would win. :)

I thought the different zoo's were funny.

There's an Arena ( not in Wisconsin ) called the Cow Palace...it's in the San Francisco area...the NBA's Golden State Warriors used to play there.

I dont know if it hosts concerts or ever did, but it's still there as of my visit to the area last year.

The live version of "Crystal Ball" that appears on the soundtrack of the movie "Roadie" was recorded at the Cow Palace.
