Default Not bad

#20 is pretty good.

But I have to be honest - I was more happy to see "Springsteen on Broadway" on the list. I saw his show twice in New York City and it was one of the best live performances of my life!

So they are selling out or nearly selling out venues?

Does anyone know how these numbers compare with their last tour?

I’d be more curious how they compare to the 2009 and 2013 tours. The last tour was more of an event with Christine returning.

The show in my city for this April is about 1/3 sold, and that doesn't include the tickets that have been picked up by some of the smaller sellers. This show went on sale 6 weeks ago.

The last tour was sold out within 4 days of going on sale.

When you are grossing 1.5 million in bloody Tulsa, Oklahoma....the tour is a huge success. I was flamed to death for saying it would be successful. One member resigned the board to protest my saying that.
Having said all of that.....its actually more successful than I thought it would be. Like any tour, there are pockets of cities that don't sell that well. In the huge success of Unleashed, the Mac cancelled South Florida and Montreal due to poor ticket sales. Unleashed was in the top 10 of concert grosses that year.

A little context around the unleashed tour, that was during the recession and sales were terrible for FM and the entire industry. I went to two shows and in both instances they were moving people from the nosebleeds down to the lower level just to fill seats and completely curtaining off the nosebleeds. That tour is probably one of their biggest financial hiccups post 1997.

Indeed it may have been one of the top tours of that year, but nothing sold well that year for anyone in the concert industry so the bar was below par.

According to Pollstar, as of 2/11 the tour is up to 13th place now. The last update above was 20th.
