Something I sort of dimly knew about, but finally got a proper answer to today by a friend. The number of seating of the PPG Paints Arena. There is some conflicting info, BUT THE EVIDENCE SEEMS PRETTY OBVIOUS.
From this article:
Tumblr media
And from the PPG Arena FAQ:
Tumblr media
And the wiki page which was sourced from here:
Tumblr media
THEY HONESTLY CHANGED THE SEATING CAPACITY FOR HOCKEY IN THE ARENA SO IT WOULD BE A KADIAN OF SIDNEY CROSBY'S BIRTHDAY?!? AHAHAHAHAHAHA. The organisation decided to BUY INTO SIDNEY CROSBY'S SUPERSTITION. The man is like a cult leader without even knowing.

Old Dominion, Priscilla Block & Adam Doleac – PPG Paints Arena – Pittsburgh, PA – September 15, 2023
When long time country music band Old Dominion brought their "No Bad Vibes Tour" to Pittsburgh's PPG Paints Arena, it was a night most fans will never forget. From the opening acts to the nearly two-hour set by Old Dominion, the show was filled with hit after hit.
Old Dominion is made up of some of Nashville's best songwriters, having songs that were hits for artists like Kenny Chesney, Blake Shelton, Dierks Bentley, Luke Bryan, and of course for Old Dominion.
The stage was a large T-shape and split the general admission pit into two sides giving everyone a good view. All of the acts used every inch of the stage to keep the show moving and the energy high.
Tumblr media
Old Dominion opened their set with hit after hit including "Make It Sweet,” "No Hard Feelings," "Never Be Sorry," "Break Up With Him," and the hits kept coming. They took time to show off some of the songs they wrote by including "Save It For A Rainy Day," a song they wrote for Kenny Chesney.
The next song, "My Heart is a Bar" was the closer, until the crowd called them back out for a two-song encore of "Hawaii" and "I Was On A Boat That Day." There was a little bit of a country rebel streak in the encores as the show went past the building curfew by a few minutes. They really hustled off the stage after the last note. All in all it was a solid set turned in by one of the longest lasting bands in recent country history.
Tumblr media
Taking the stage right before Old Dominion was Priscilla Block, one of a crop of new female country acts trying to each find a niche in the industry. Block began her career posting music online, and mostly on Tik Tok. After using a Go Fund Me to cut the self- penned "Just About Over You" and seeing it go viral, she had record labels falling all over each other to sign her.
Naming her fan club, and stage show, "The Block Party", she had a party atmosphere with her cross of country and southern rock, and only slowed down for the very personal "Me Part 2" which she performed acoustic on guitar. She only got to perform 7 songs on the night, and it seemed she was only getting warmed up when it was time to wrap it up. Block does seem to know her niche and her audience, and her songs cater right to the heart of them.
Tumblr media
Newcomer Adam Doleac took the stage before Block for a very short set. Included in the set were his two singles "Famous" and "Doing It Wrong", but the crowd sang along with every song in his set. He worked the large stage like a pro and left the crowd wanting more.
Old Dominion Setlist: Make It Sweet / No Hard Feelings / Never Be Sorry / Break Up With Him / Midnight Mess Around / No Such Thing As A Broken Heart / I Should Have Married You / Written In The Sand / Be With Me / Said Nobody / Snapback / Hotel Key / Memory Lane / One Man Band / Song For Another Time / How Good Is That / Nowhere Fast / Show Shopping / Can't Get You / Save It For A Rainy Day / My Heart Is A Bar / Encore: Hawaii / Rock N Roll Part 2 / I Was On A Boat That Day
Priscilla Block Setlist: My Bar / Off The Deep End / Me Part 2 / You, Me and Whiskey / Fake Names / Thick Thighs / Just About Over You
Adam Doleac Setlist: Somewhere Cool With You / Could've Loved You Longer / Drinkin' It Wrong / Don't It Sound Alright / Another / Meet Me In The City / Famous / Absolutely (Story Of A Girl)

Pittsburgh Penguins assure local leaders they will fulfill city commitments this time
When the Pittsburgh Penguins were negotiating with the city/state for a new arena during the years of 2006-2008, they made numerous promises in return for significant taxpayer money to build their new arena, now called PPG Paints Arena. According to the Penguins, the opportunities for economic development with their new arena were “limitless”. Promises such as: A plan to “revitalize the area…

Rod Stewart & Cheap Trick – PPG Paints Arena – Pittsburgh, PA – August 26, 2023
The 1970’s certainly gave the world a crop of ageless and legendary performers.  Such to the point is Sir Rod Stewart, who turned PPG Paints arena in Pittsburgh into a Las Vegas showroom and put on a first-class performance that every performer under 50 should envy.
Tumblr media
A line of women doubling as instrumentalists and backup singers took the stage first, kicking off a cover of Robert Palmer’s “Addicted To Love” and giving off vibes of the iconic video.  The 77-year-old Stewart joined them in his shimmering suit, and crop of spiky hair, and giving notice this was not to be a rehashing of hits phoned in.
Tumblr media
Stewart’s voice and strutting, especially for his age, adds to the charm. The fully built video walls, showing vintage clips as well as closeups live from the stage, enhancing the show without detracting from the main attraction.  Stewart went from one song into another with very little banter but encouraged crowd participation on his most well-known hits.
Tumblr media
Cheap Trick, another of those ageless and legendary performers, opened the show for Rod Stewart.  They flowed through their 13-song set with ease and polish, egged on by a crowd singing along to every word.
Tumblr media
Opening with “Magical Mystery Tour,” Cheap Trick weaved their way through standouts like “The Flame,” “I Want You To Want Me,” and “Dream Police” before ending with the perfect ending song “Goodnight.” 
Tumblr media
Rod Stewart Setlist: Addicted To Love / You Wear It Well / Ooh La La / Infatuation / Young Turks / Forever Young / The First Cut Is The Deepest / You’re In My Heart (The Final Acclaim) / Maggie May / I’d Rather Go Blind / Downtown Train / Rhythm Of My Heart / I’m So Excited / I Don’t Want To Talk About It / Tonight’s The Night (Gonna Be Alright) / Have I Told You Lately / Lady Marmalade / Some Guys Have All The Luck / It Takes Two / Do Ya Think I’m Sexy? / Encore / Baby Jane
Tumblr media
Cheap Trick Setlist: Magical Mystery Tour / Hello There / Ain't That a Shame / Tonight It's You / She's Tight / Light Up the Fire / Downed / I Know What I Want / The Flame / I Want You to Want Me / Dream Police / Surrender / Goodnight
