Crowded House at Wolf Trap, I think. Does the Hollywood Bowl count as an arena?
Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
The last arena show I saw was My Chem or Pete Seeger at Madison Square Garden. Pretty sure it was Pete.
Since then, however, I've seen Springsteen in a stadium my friends.
The venue I seem to be at the most is the Stone Pony. I think it holds about a thousand.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I think Showbox SODO is the venue I end up at the most often. Previously it was El Corazon, but I have finally decided that there is no point to putting up with the shitty sound and sight lines. (I have seen Peter Murphy there. I have seen the Sisters of Mercy there. I don't think there is ANY performer that can redeem that venue, but if Tom Waits or MCR decide to do a show there, I'll give it another try.)

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I seem to end up at The Warfield the most, though The Fillmore is giving it a run for its money. I don't know that I'll ever return to The Great American Music Hall - not because of sightline or shitty mix, but because when I saw Lucero there, THREE different audience members jumped up onstage FOUR different times (one was a repeat). Worst. Security. Ever. Have they never heard of Dimebag Darrell? (Also, it takes forever to get a beer there.)

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
My last arena show was Leonard Cohen.
Before that depends on how you're defining arena. Possibly also Leonard Cohen, but if the WaMu theatre doesn't fit, then it's all the way back to the first MCR show I went to, which was some sort of multi-band deal including Gnarls Barkley.

Oh, and the Showbox SoDo is also where I wind up most.
