February 18, 2009

According to Inforum.com, AC/DC's January 17, 2009 performance in Fargo, North Dakota — which raked in more than $1.8 million — gave the Fargodome a major financial charge to start 2009.

The dome brought in about $187,282 after expenses from the 21,366 who attended the concert.

AC/DC's Fargodome show was the venue's highest-grossing concert ever in terms of ticket sales, General Manager Rob Sobolik said.

"It was a huge way to start out 2009," Sobolik said. "We just hope we can carry the momentum the rest of the way through 2009."
