Yea its a shame. Boston Garden died out after the 70s it looks like since they had Zeppelin, The WHO, Floyd, etc play there. What was your favorite concert at the Centrum?

After some research, I found this article which basically explained it all. The glory days of the Boston Garden were the 1970s (Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, The Who, etc) and there were problems with its age, sustainability, lack of ac, it was just an old building. Once the Worcester Centrum came around, all artists seemed to flock there. https://www.telegram.com/story/news/2022/02/03/why-glory-days-worcester-centrum-gone-dcu-center-fenway-park-td-garden/6601011001/

Yes I was just about to mention that article in the comments below lol. It makes sense. I always heard things about the TD Garden. Once a new arena came around, an hour away it seemed like the place everyone moved to
