UK shows attendance numbers?

Pretty sure no show has sold out...
They've been handing out upgrades to fill the lower tiers and floor seats, so there must be a lot of empty spaces out there.
Tickets are still on sale for tomorrow night too.

Probably technically Sold Out so far yes. There seemed more empty seats last night than had been so far, but it was at least 85-90% taken. How many of those were free or cheap giveaways we will never know, but they havent had to taper off any sections yet. Im actually pleasantly surprised how many people have been attending- if they had priced it more sensibly then it looks like all 12 nights would have sold out easily.

I dont think any of the shows to date would have struggled as they were the original dates- its the ones at the end that were added later that will be interesting to see- but again with all the papering and £5 tickets and what not there will probably be near enough a full house in the building, just not neccessarily everyone has paid for the tickets

you either sell out or you dont

obviously a full sell out will be 100% ticket of all available tickets but to be fair lets say 95% is a sell out

i am almost certain none of the shows on this run has sold out based on what i have read/seen (though not been to a show myself).

the promotion company will call it a sell out at any number they wish so it could be as low as 80%.

that said i have never been to a large show (think stadiums) where there havent been big gaps but that could be due to a number of reasons, at a gig its usually obviously if the show has sold throughly well or not.

Let's see...

Let's "upgrade" whoever to those empty seats on the floor...

Yeah, it's not sold out. None of the dates are/were/will be.

Who cares? I've never seen so many people so worried about who goes to a show or how many. Who cares if noone is there but you and the band? 75% or 90% or 100% sold. I could give a rats ars and why anone else cares is beyond me.

Because as a society, we're interested in this type of stuff. Box office for movies, record sales, touring grosses.
