No it's not. It just shows that 10 nights with ticketprices like that were too much to handle. Would there have been 5 nights they all would've sold out. So yes, you made no sense with that post of yours.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

Maybe its the language barrier
They're the band booking ten nights and selling out none - which is actually a joke- the reasons might be the ticket prices or their shitty new stuff (i don't care). Not selling out any show is a laughable fact. Period!

Bon Jovi Prudential Center-Newark, N.J.
Oct. 25-26, 28, 30, Nov. 1, 3-4, 7, 9-10, 2007
Promoter: AEG Live

Total Gross:
$16,379,070

Attended / Capacity
138,322 / 140,000

Number of Shows/ Number of Sellouts
10 / 0

Prices:
$303 to $49.50

I'll say this again, that's still alot of ****ing tickets and a lot of ****ing money, I wish they'd have sold less to make the point even clearer to Jon, the band and their managements.
But apparently the point wasn't made clear enough for them.

I agree, I don't think they have anything to be embarrassed about.

Yeah that's not bad. Especially if the 2000 odd were the more expensive tickets

The article says 160,000not 180,00.
And I still want to know if that 160,000 is counting luxury boxes.

probably is, at least that's what I assume, because it's referring to the entire capacity at that the venue could hold for the Jovi shows.
