I know for a FACT that acts are skipping the dome because of the restrictions of the roof. With a new building Calgary will have more "big draw" events that will bring money into the economy...its a fact
did you miss the latest country star (name escapes me) that had to do an acoustic set last week because they were worried his sound system would pull down the roof? lol
We can debate who pays for the thing, there is no debate that a new building would bring more arts and entertainment to the city

From what I understand, part of the issue with his show in particular was the snow load on the roof. I would imagine that when a tour is booking venues, they check venue restrictions beforehand, so had we not had all that snow, it wouldn't have been a problem.
Your point still stands though. I've definitely heard it cited many times that we miss concerts due to the Dome's structure.
