Of course everyone new this but the results are finally in for Bruce Springsteens 10 date stand at Giant Stadium in July and August.
GIANTS STADIUM : East Rutherford N.J. : July 15, 17-18, 21, 24, 26-27, August 28, 30-31. GROSS: $38,684,050 ATTENDANCE: 566,560 SHOWS: 10 SELLOUTS: 10
This is probably the record worldwide for the amount of money and attendence generated from playing one city. At the peak of U2s popularity, they could have probably of done 6 of these. During ATYCLB I think they could have managed 4.
Bruce Springsteens base of popularity is north of the mason dixon line, east of the Mississippi and South of the Canadian border. In that area, no one is more popular when it comes to concerts. In other area's of the USA though, Springsteens popularity falls off enough in that he can have difficulties filling a 17,000 seat arena in some places.
