Because they were supposed to come in October with possibly two shows but for some reason rescheduled in July before that with very short notice. That's why I said "faster than" not "more than". Because their tickets sold out in minutes when I could still buy tickets for BJ two days before their shows.

Ok, I'm just saying that if they sold out that quick there is a big demand for them and more shows should be added.

They are all releasing singles in this record industry area and therefore have no chance of garnering enough fans for an extended perioed of time to time close to selling out arenas - let alone stadiums...

i would say outside of one-off police and eagles type things only

Jovi
Madonna
Bruce
u2
Rolling Stones

could really do a stadium tour WORLDWIDE

and to be honest - out of those i think Bruce would have the toughest time by far

sorry Kath

For South America, just take Bruce out of that list and add Iron Maiden.

Yes, Bruce would have the hardest time. Also out of these Bruce is the only one that really isn't as big in both the states and worldwide like the rest of the list.

METALLICA. Without being a fan, I don't think they have troubles filling stadiums anywhere.

I think they would do ok filling stadiums outside the U.S., but they would do much better in the states.

Elton John, Billy Joel, and especially Elton and Billy on the same bill could probably put together a well attended stadium tour.
