Isn't it a bit early to make that call? It's still 6 months away.

I'm sure that the concert industry has some kind of algorithm regarding the percentage of tix sold vs. the time left to sell tix. Since Helsinki is the last date of the Euro tour, they must have figured that they could save some money by ending the tour a couple of days early, especially if they end up losing money for the promoter.

Come on! to my knowledge, there is one Ledgie since 2003 who is Finnish. Am I the only one that feels sorry for him? FM has not played Finland for... About 38 years? And now they cancel? That sacks.

Much like they call a winner in an election with 0% of the returns in.
