Best Mac venues?

What are the best venues you've seen FM perform at?

In 1989, I saw Stevie at Alpine Valley in Wisconsin. Typical outdoor place.
In 1990, I saw FM perform at some festival in Milwaukee. Squeeze opened. Outdoors again, better venue.
In 1991, I saw Stevie at the Spectrum in Philly. Loved the concert, loved the venue.
In 1994 I saw Stevie near Chicago, some outdoor place. Didn't love the venue.
In 1997 I saw FM at the new E Center in Camden. It was AWFUL. I'd NEVER go back. Traffic going in and out, visibility of the stage, arm space, you name it. Just TERRIBLE.
In 1998 I saw Stevie at the Woodlands in Houston. Not bad acoustically, but what dumb-ass designs an outdoor theater in Houston to be booked for summer tours ?
In 2001 I went back to the Woodlands to see Stevie. (What kind of a dumb-ass PAYS to go back to sweat at this venue ?)
In 2003 I saw FM at the new 1st Union Center in Philly. I liked it a lot. Parking, refreshments, everything was easy & good. I was surprised. And the acoustics there were not as bad as everybody made them out to be before I went. I'd go back there.

I'm debating spending the $ on Vegas for this tour. I think I'd like the MGM.

I envy those of you who have seen the smaller venues. Was anybody here at that Hawaiian restaurant when Stevie performed, as Mick describes in his book?

What was your favorite Mac venue?
