Statistics (difference in ticket sales) are based on reported Billboard Boxscores.

Growth:

Greenville: 2,399
Atlanta: 2,002
Nashville: 4,365
St. Louis: 978
Dallas: 106
Las Vegas: 3,736 (different venue)
Sacramento: 1,313 (different venue)
Phoenix: 2,146 (different venue)
Columbus: 1,234
St. Paul: 200

Decline:

Sunrise: -1,053
Birmingham: -1,757
Oklahoma City: -1,298
San Jose: -2,011
San Diego: -1,450
Inglewood: -797 (different venue)
Memphis: -5,526
Cleveland: -5,969
Indianapolis: -1,623
Philadelphia: -121

The band played stadium shows in Chicago and Detroit during the BWC tour, and a festival date in New Orleans.
Your Cleveland "Decline" number is interesting.... There must have been a different "configuration" aka the back of the stage???? because they were only 1500 seats away from a sellout however the decline is 6000
