Is The Tour Doing Well?
Can people who've been to any of the shows so far say how full the venues have been? Looking at a few shows being cancelled so far, the incredibly great seats available on Ticketmaster for upcoming shows and reports that some earlier shows like Devore were barely 1/4th sold it seems this tour isn't doing so hot.

I was searching for concert attendance figures yesterday and could not find any. My bet is the tour is not selling well. Let's face it...anything Sam or Dave does outside of VH is not going to draw very many fans. Their solo careers are over.

I'll agree with Dave but not Sam. Hagar did sell out both times he came to the Detroit arena in 2005. Granted, the Fox Theatre holds 5,000 people but DTE holds 15,000+ and he sold out. As far as Dave playing DTE, I went to Ticketmaster this morning with no line and got good seats...we'll see how he does. I think what makes Hagar the attractive package is the amount of time his shows are and the ticket prices.

I tried to get tickets for Tampa tonight and couldn't. They were sold out. Only thing I could find were scalpers asking over $600 a ticket. That sounds like they are doing well at least here in the Tampa area.

There's no one as smart as a gambler at the track putting thier last $10.00 on the longest shot of the day.

LOL, Devore was full. The lawn area wasn't shoulder to shoulder, but the all the loge were. It was surely 10k strong.

I know Atlanta was cancelled probably due to low ticket sales, but shows in Atlanta don't do well unless you are U2 or someone on that scale.

WEST PALM 6/16
I went to the show last night in WEST PALM and it was a late crowd but
a good crowd...about 11K or so. Ohh by the way, GOOD ENOUGH live is just awesome. Too bad VH never played it live outside of the 5150 tour...DAMMIT!!

A little self centered there, Hagar? Who wants to stare at you sitting on a beach for 3 hours before the show starts?

It's synth heavy, but I love this new cover of Dreams, and the fact that it's different than the original. Such an amazing song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zxNHqq7ZM54
