one good reason that I know and I do when I run sound for the loud ones...
you can bridge in mono to double your output... (not my preference at all as I like using effects to tickle the audience)
me, and my wife's bands, we run in stereo and semi surround too...
(most bands get thier info to set up from the local GC or music store... ;-) and they are doing good to get any sound out sometimes...)

Hey, from a semi-pro sound tech I'll tell you that it's an ugly myth. They
state: You lose signal and have dead spots in the house! Far from true if you
DON'T HARD PAN LEFT OR RIGHT! So much stupidity out there. If you've got a pan
knob, be sure to pull the guy entirely into one speaker... dumbass. Subtleties
and nuances make the mix like a wonderful meal. Too much sweet or salt will
kill the best steak. And believe me, I've heard live mixes of some of the best
names that had that same quality as when you step on the cat's tail. Or when
you're on the airport runway.
