announced that the 7,100-seat venue adjacent to Staples Center raked in $9,076,420 during its opening six-night run with the
Eagles and the Dixie Chicks. Each of the Oct. 18-27 shows sold out, bringing 42,600 fans to the first part of L.A. Live to
come online. "Not only were both these groups arena headliners in their own right, the venue served as an amazing backdrop
for their immense talents," said Lee Zeidman, general manager of the Nokia Theatre, in a statement. Tickets for the shows
ranged form $85 to $265.
