Default How many attendees for Twickenham, UK

Does anyone know how many attendees there were at 1st&2nd Twinckenham shows?

There's no way that's true though. Both dates were far from sold out.

From the numbers above, i'd guess around 52000 for the first night and about 40000 for night 2

On the 2nd night, they actually closed the top tier stands and redistributed everyone to lower and middle tear. Which was good for us as we ended up moving closer. But even the lower tiers at the back were half empty. EVen the pitch area (standing) was only about 75% full.

I would say 2nd night was even less then 40000, more like 35000...

I wonder why the number of attendees at 2nd show was less than the one at 1st show? If they had drown only 35,000-40,000 people for the final show of European leg on Saturday night, hmmmmm, the next European tour could be end in Germany, instead of UK.
