Could Anyone Beat The Greatful Dead's 1977 Englishtown Concert for US Attendance Records Today?

I feel that if the Concert Promotion or Tours where not in it for themselves (1984 Victory Tour), the Greatful Dead's Englishtown Stop, which echoed through the canyons, would have been rewritten.

Let's think of this : It would be like an NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series Ticket Run, and the TV Coverage was worthy of Dave McClelland and Steve Evans's Seal of Approval. Instead, it would be a travail akin to a State Championship on the Open Road that would not be seen since the 1970s.

We'd have Stadiums of 100,000 People or More, and Englishtown never seated 100,000 or even close to it. And, there would not have been these Corporate Games that would have kept the tour from running Big Numbers.

I don't know if Michael Jackson would have snatched the Stadium Record from Led Zeppelin, but, the inorganicism of the tales and stories would have made that dispute.  I feel the World Record would have to be in America for Concert Attendance and have the US Record be reset with it too, would help.
