That is a shame.
There is a place called the Bronco Bowl. One of the worst places to load in and out heavy equipment. Back in the 80's, it would take 10 guys and a rope to load in the heavier pieces. Load outs were the worst.

I was born and raised in Oak Cliff.  Bronco Bowl was part of my life.  It was a place with a character and atmosphere all its own.  It's gone too.

The last time I was there was with System of a Down in 2002. I had been there a few times before. I don't remember having a bad show there, but I do remember how much locals loved the place. And I'll never forget how much work was put in to get the gear in ad out of the place.

I have great memories about the place.  There was a great snack bar.  Nothing like a Bronco Burger with Fifth Frame Fries.

I saw only one show there in the Auditorium.  I think it was the Butthole Surfers.  It was a long tiime ago.

The place was not designed (in 1958) for rock shows.
