Disco Rodeo used to have a shockingly bad website, but that seems to have
vanished.  At an eyeball's guess I'd say almost a thousand.  It's similar
in size to the Orange Peel in Asheville.

Which brings to mind a question: Why does Disco Rodeo suck so much and the
Orange Peel rule?  They're similar sized venues, and (as a consumer of
entertainment), I found the OP to be better b/c it was cleaner, easier to
get around in, and sounded really good.  They also seem to be getting
stupendous shows.  Why can't DR be like that?  What's bad from the
"Producer of Entertainment" side?
