OWN - I think 1.4 was the number
Bounce - no clue...

What's bollocks?

I remember reading that they played in front of 6 million people between 1984-85. They played over 400 shows in those 2 years to my recollection.

As for the These Days tour, I don't know. I tihnk 5-6 million seems off. Of the 126 shows they played on that tour, 42 were played in the US and Canada in arenas or amphitheatres. If you figure every one of those shows was sold out (which they weren't), that would amount to about 640,000. When I saw them in Hartford, there were only 8,000 people there. I know they played mostly stadiums elsewhere, but an average of 65,000 people a night seems pretty high.
