Speaking of The Beatles, how many US arenas/stadiums that they performed in are still in use today? The Civic Center, obviously. They played out here in Veterans Memorial Coliseum, which for some ridiculous reason is still standing today, despite a relatively new arena right next door. Anyone know of any others?

Ok, so not counting concert-specific venues and stadiums that were pretty much leveled to the foundation and rebuilt (Gator Bowl, Balboa Stadium) it appears Dodger Stadium and Washington Stadium (a.k.a. RFK) are the only additions to the two I mentioned.

Portland I named above. The wiki article doesn't say specifically, but I always thought Key Arena fit into the category of places I mentioned that were pretty much rebuilt from the ground up.
