Answer the following statement(s) true (T) or false (F)

1. Very few new opera houses or concert halls have opened in the past two decades in the United States. 2. Because stadiums with seating of 30,000+ are usually sports facilities, they require extensive setup/tear down for performing stages when used for concerts. 3. Midsized music venues with seating of 1,000 to 6,500 persons with ready-built stages offer potential for most outsized profits for concerts. 4. The smaller the venue, the more equipment it tends to supply to visiting artists because small-time artists generally lack tour equipment. 5. When artists are playing a venue, they pretty much have the right to use the entire facility as needed.
