Has anyone thought about using deserted malls as a music venue?
I've been thinking about how malls can revitalize their popularity. Malls already have large parking lots and other infrastructure to handle large crowds of people. They could host events like conventions or even live music shows.
This photo is from the interior of the puente hills mall, relatively dead these days with most stores shuttered and void of life. This large room is the center of it all and I see potential for live music here.
Imagine an Alien Ant Farm boxing ring style stage with line arrays every 90 degrees. The crowd on all sides on the floor and balconies. The stores could he revitalized to support live acts selling merch, drinks, food, etc...
Overall I'm just spit balling. I wish I had the money to invest in an idea like this. Just wondering what y'all think from a live sound perspective.
