I thought they were failing miserably, & here they are succeeding beyond my -- or anyone's -- wildest expectations!

Based entirely on the number of new listings by ticket re-sellers on that particular site- not based on any real data. Not exactly unexpected considering they put 25+ shows on pre-sale (the mating call of the amateur scalper) last week.

Didn't want to start a new thread about it to beat a dead horse, but this past Monday's batch of on-sales were just as weak all around as the initial batch.

This is absolutely stunning to me, given the state of the economy, the price of the tickets, and that so many even hard core fans are talking about sitting this tour out. Though it seems everyone I know in Charlotte is all aflutter about them coming to town... every queen I know within 50 miles is going to their Charlotte show . I must say I'm proud of my little band... I hope this tour helps pay off their hip replacements and hovarounds .

This is what I have been saying for how long??? This site is a SMALL cross-section of Fleetwood Mac's fanbase and if we don't go, we will not be missed. There are plenty of people who know nothing about this site, or the ticket process period that are rocking concert ticket sales. It's ironic that no one believed what livenation was saying, "we took it for the b*s- it is..." I am not pushing the issue, but I was right... The Mac is back and people are interested and paying the money to see them!!!

Is that the week that tickets for some of the newly announced dates went on sale?

I am thinking so which is only fair because of the EXSTENSIVE dates Brittney had and so many others... This puts them on a neven level, as dates go. So that the ticket sales match. I would think (in total) the Mac still comes a few shy of matching the sales figures of the other tours to date...
