I think there are some valid points in that article, however I also think that's making the shows out to be more of a disater than they actually were.
I'm also somewhat confused about the numbers:
Let's say he's right, and the Pru capacity was 160,000 for the 10 shows, and lets say they sold about 140,000 seats. Now, that comes out to 2000 empty seats a night.
No, I know there weren't 2000 empty seats any of the nights I went. So, this would mean that the weekday shows had to have had ALOT of empty seats, but haven't heard anything about that (and I'm sure if any of the shows were that empty it would've gotten on here) The only other thing I can think of is that the 160,000 number was counting suite boxes. Now, suite's are insanely expensive, and usually only sold to corporate sponsers, or to large (IE 30-40 people) groups, so if they're counted, it's done so unfairly.
Now, I'm not trying to defend Bon Jovi or their ticket prices, but more just raising some questions.
