The history of the iconic supernova that was the Cape Cod Coliseum is covered in depth on a special Bonus episode of the podcast.
Episode 26 covers the flash in the pan that was the Coliseum beginning with its inception as mainly a hockey rink for youth hockey and the Cape Cod Cubs.  What followed was a who's who of musical talent throughout the 1970's into the 1980's.  For a time it outshined the Cape Cod Melody Tent and was owned by sports entertainment mogul Vince McMahon.  However it was not meant to be and the Coliseum has been but a memory for more than 35 years. 
Get ready to reminisce about all of the exciting concerts, hockey games, pro wrestling events, and more that occurred in a loud building on a quiet street in South Yarmouth, Massachusetts.
Also be sure to check out my livestreams called Without A Map Friday's at 8pm on Instagram which serve as a sort of postgame show for the podcast. Find them on IGTV and YouTube after they've finished.
