Oakland Arena

The East Bay's big room — roughly 19,600 for concerts, former home of the Warriors, now pure touring machine. When an electronic act outgrows Bill Graham and the Fox, they land here (John Summit's December dates, for example). Massive production, long concession lines, and a floor that stretches forever. BART to Coliseum is the move; arena parking is $40.
