Ok ... it’s a bit sad topic but I saw ticket prices fall down to 35 $. And anywhere the tickets are available ... is there a problem for the management ?

sheimerl, which venue are you seeing prices that low? and is it a resale or Ticketmaster? there are lots of seats available, especially in the nosebleed levels but in DC, the cheapest seats are $49.50 and those are really pretty bad seats

The cheapest tickets for the July Columbus gig are $49.50. of course, after fees, that goes up to about $80.00.

How big are these venues, 15-20,000? Or bigger?

What the hell are those fees that a percentage as high as 37,5% of the price corresponds to them?

How big are these venues, 15-20,000? Or bigger? The arena in DC seats 20,000 for sporting events. For concerts they lose one end, but pick up the floor area so maybe not too different. last year in Philly, (similar size) it was a sell out it would take a really strong surge in sales to make that happen this year

In reality you don't have to sell out venues that size to make a big profit. Add on merchandising and say, a three quarters capacity Jeffrey will be doing very nicely, although from an atmosphere point of view lots of empty seats is disappointing. It does appear though that US ticket prices are somewhat lower than the UK?

LOL. This thread turned out to be a bunch of hand wringing for nothing. The tour was an overwhelming success!
