Also, because of the way this was going to be a convertible fieldhouse, stuff like monster truck shows and large concerts would never be possible. Soccer would be possible. The problem is you want to be able to use the fieldhouse, so the goal would be to have as few big events as possible in there, not as many as possible.
Why wouldn't concerts be possible? Assuming that these are large enough that a new arena wouldn't be big enough to host it, these would be occurring on a rare occasion, and doesn't require the venue being structured in a certain way to make it feasible.

How many shows a year does Commonwealth and BC Place get?
