I suppose Calgary doesn't really have a great indoor venue for concerts that attract crowds in the area of 5k.

Nah, you guys are trying to attribute to Calgary what is happening with Creed all over the world. They're a legacy act that didn't have their lead singer for 15 years or so when bands from their era are selling out arenas even with being together the whole time.

Saddledome show has sold about 11k of 14k (sellout) tickets (after 3 days of sales) and there is not a lot of resale tickets on there at all. They'll sell out easily by late summer when the show is. Grey Eagle is 2700 Estrada, Creed is five levels above that, it's nothing to do with not having a 6k option.
