My inability to find a photo or video is upsetting, it must be out there somewhere lol.
Thanks for the info. Sorry, what's the website? I tried corelcentre.com and it brought me to some courier.

A blast from the past memory!

Backstreet Boys played two shows there in March 1997, Mark Knopfler played a show there in Sept 2001, and Kelly Clarkson as late as 2005 still used the name.
Almost all shows there were branded as "WordPerfect Theatre"

Sounds like it was an amazing show.
