  • Will miss this building...u can keep the corporate whorehouses of today with ads everywhere you look and prices designed to keep the average fan at home...I recall when visiting hockey teams were afraid to enter..and the Russians left...and the Dr...Bruce and Billy Joel's Captain Jack...when MSG is gone I guess that'll be it...bend over and let Corporate America entertain you!...no thanks....I'll keep my memories and stay at home.

  • Worked at the Spectrum in the early and late 80s. So many memories, the people, the shows, the place. It was the best job I ever had. I will miss that place, the way I would miss a friend. Its all about money, its always about money. Ed Snider should be ashamed of himself.
