This may be a question for Seth, but why do some bands when they come to town always play Jiffy rather than MPP? Pearl Jam is another…

My guess would be the size difference of the venues + contractual obligations between labels and promotors

I believe Jiffy Lube Live is a Live Nation venue

Very correct, and it boasts a nearly 30% higher occupancy.  They are two radically different venues– it's like saying that since Black Cat and 930 are both indoor venues, they are interchangeable.  Dave and Pearl Jam can easily sell-out 25,000, so they do.

Both make sense… I just hate that place and MPP is only about 5k smaller.

5,000 x $50 ticket = a quarter million dollars, btw
