Rumours are going that only 15.000 of the 50.000 have already been sold.
Ticket sales in Belgium are also disappointing. That venue is also far from sold out and even Gold Circle tickets are still available. Many people think it's way too expensive, and I'm not paying 100E either for a ticket in Belgium. It's just too much.
Are the tides turning? Are people finally fed up with the high ticket prices? Anywhere else in Europe or even America where it's this bad?

While I always want the band to do well, the ticket prices are getting a little out of hand, especially in Europe. Maybe with the poor ticket sales maybe they will "get it". I'm sure the fact that this is their 5th tour in 8 years doesn't help either. Many people (the casuals) have already seen them a few times an don't wanna pay that kind of money.
As far as I know Seb, tickets in the U.S. have been selling well.
