An In The Round show at the same venue was played in December 1987 on the Hysteria tour. Their first headline show.

Another In The Round show was played at this arena in December 1992 on the Adrenalize tour.

They did not return again until July 2009 for the first show at Sprint Center on the Sparkle Lounge summer tour.

Two more visits took place in August 2011 and June 2012.

The 2015 show took place at the spectacular outdoor Starlight Theatre venue. Their only outdoor show in this city.

The Sprint Center was then played again in June 2017.
