Comerica Theatre

For musicians who can’t sell out arenas but are too big to play some of the Valley’s smaller venues, the 5,000-capacity Comerica Theatre (formerly, the Dodge) is perfect. Many fans sit during the shows, considering the venue mostly hosts pop acts (think James Blunt and Ashlee Simpson), but standing room is created for some of the rock bands that play (All-American Rejects and Kid Rock). Also, be on the lookout for comedy shows, care of stand-up stars such as Kathy Griffin.
