Default Official - US ticket sales must be low

Not sure if anyone else noticed this on bonjovi.com or not, but I think posting this message on there officially states what some of us have been saying for a while - US ticket sales for the stadium shows are very poor:

I think they definetly expected the demand to be more.
You think it has something to do with them doing sooo many arena shows in the first leg?? like if some casual fan went to a couple of the continental arena shows, they'll kinda go, "aahh **** it I saw them already this tour"

Probably.

It could also be that they're just hitting too many shows in the northeast. I mean, they're playing what, 7 stadium shows within a 4 hour drive of each other? And it's all in an area that they played about a dozen shows in just about 6 months ago. At $100 a pop, not everyone can afford to go to more than 1 show.

But I thought that atleast two of the shows in Giants are sold out. They announced it few months ago on their site when they give us third date on Giants.

But I'm also a bit confused cause they played like 50 sold out shows in States just a half year ago and now having like seven or something stadium shows. Why don't they spread them up a little. Even though I ain't so sure of locations of gigs cause I live In Finland, I know that if there's 6 to 7 shows and 3 of them are held on same stadium, things aren't alright to me....
