- A concert at the John Paul Jones Arena, University of Virginia Charlottesville, VA Virginia http://www.johnpauljonesarena.com/index.asp The name of the new 16,000 seat arena at the University of Virginia has people wondering. Where did that name come from? Is it named after the Revolutionary War Hero? Did the Led Zeppelin Bassist have ties to Charlottesville? Neither. The new state of the art facility is recognition and a thank you from a son to his father. Paul Tudor Jones II, a 1976 U. Va. graduate, made an extraordinary $35 million commitment to the University of Virginias newest arena and was granted his naming request to honor his father, John Paul Jones. John Paul Jones Arena
