The stage and "floor" seats were on the infield/track (the track was used for car races and horse races as well as monster truck races). The NY State Fair actually tried to get DMB to play there in 98 and 99, both times they couldn't afford it—the asking price was $500,000. The venue was demolished in January 2016.
