Part 3/13:
The notion that artists frequently sold out stadiums during the 80s and 90s is somewhat misleading. Instead, only the most iconic acts achieved such feats consistently, whereas most acts performed in arenas or smaller venues—sometimes referred to as sheds—accommodating between 5,000 to 10,000 fans, occasionally reaching 20,000 with lawn seating. These limits suggest that the era of widespread stadium selling for individual artists is largely a historical anomaly, not the norm.
