Yes, and the runnerup, Paul McCartney won't be coming too close, although he is playing an all sellout US tour at ridiculous prices, but there shouldn't be enough dates to get him over the Dublin lads.

Vox,

I didn't see a thread that combined all Boxscores from North America and Europe, so that is why I started this one. I would have put the info under your thread except that its titled "Euro Boxscores", so I thought it would be better to start a thread that would be inclusive of all legs of the tour.

Do you know how many people are going to be at the other Spanish shows and the show in Portugal? What is the average price in Euro for the shows in Spain? I know its not possible to know exactly yet, so just let me know what your estimate is.

There are 9 shows left in Europe. 1 each in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Germany, France, and Portugal. Then 3 in Spain. I actually think there is a chance total attendance will be over just over 2 million when the 32 date tour of Europe is complete.

So far, based on total demand, I would say this is definitely U2's most popular tour of Europe ever. Only the ZOO TV tour will have a slightly higher attendance and part of that is because ZOO TV Outside Broadcast at 43 shows. Another thing to consider is that all 32 European shows soldout they day they were put on sale. Back in 1993, of the 43 shows U2 did, about 25% of them did not completely sellout.

BOMB has done really well in Europe and I think it should cross the 4 million mark in sales there at the same rate as ATYCLB did, about year after its release. I would say right now that U2 are more popular than they have ever been in Europe, with the possible exception of the Joshua Tree album and tour back in 1987.

I was hoping the GROSS from the 32 shows in Europe would be about 165 million, but its looking like it will probably be more like 155 million total. To get to 165 million, the next 9 concerts will have to average about a 5 million gross per show.

The GROSS in North American is projected to be 135 million by the end of the year, so for the band to cross 300 million before the end of the year, they will have to GROSS 165 million in Europe unless they add some North American shows to the fall tour.
 
By the way, U2's show in Oslo tonight will officially make this tour the highest GROSSING tour in U2's history and the 4th highest GROSSING tour of all time. Total GROSS before Oslo was 167 million, and Oslo is likely to add 4 to 5 million to the Gross total, pushing Vertigo's total GROSS just past the 171 million that POPMART did.
 
I have a doubt with the attendances of the italian shows. The cappacity of both stadiums ( san siro and olimpico) is basically the same 82,955 vs. 82,307 but the olimpico has a much bigger pitch( for the athletics).Aditionally the stage in san siro was in the side of the stadium and in rome was at the back( i hope you understand what i am trying to say) which i think gives a smallest capacity for a concert.Then how is possible the attendance in milan is 68,713 and the one in rome is 67,002 with both shows sold out?

My estimates are:

Oslo: aprox 40,000 people

Goteborg: 52,000/55,000

Copenhaguen: 47,000

Munich: 65,000/70,000

Nice: 25,000 or 30,000

Barcelona: 90,000 (according to promoter)

San Sebastian: 40,000

Madrid: 54,000/55,000

Lisbon: I think 60,000/65,000


-------------

Tickets in Spain are: 46€ / 66€ / 76€

Barcelona show will gross almost 6 million dollars! :)

These are the official numbers. Its a mistake to go by the capacity of the stadiums for sports games. U2 set capacity in Rome at 67,002 and sold every ticket. The capacity in Milan was set a little higher and every ticket was sold. These numbers come from amusement business which tracks the entire concert industry around the world. These numbers were posted on www.billboard.com in the area "Top Concerts".

There are 5 big shows left to report on the European Leg of the Vertigo tour. One show in Nice France, 3 shows in Spain, and the final show in Lisbon Portugal.

The first 27 shows in EUROPE have already racked up a total of $136,144,388 in GROSS and nearly 1.7 million in attendance!

The VERTIGO TOUR is now officially the highest GROSSING tour in the history of EUROPE!!!!!! The previous high was the Stones Bridges To Babylon which did a total of $124 million. With 5 more shows still left to report on the tour, the final total will for VERTIGO EUROPE will be around $160 million!!!

Hm, so despite the talk about the size of Barcelona, Croke actually had more people each night (a shade over 82,000).

Thats true, and thats what I thought would happen. Media and fan estimates always tend to over inflate the numbers a bit. The three Croke shows are all tied in 4th place for the biggest U2 shows ever. The only U2 concerts that have ever been larger than Croke are: Reggio Emillia Italy (150,000) 1997 , Madrid Spain (115,000 , "40,000 tickets were sold illegally") 1987, and JFK Stadium in Philadelphia with a little over 86,000 in 1987.

The U2 Reggio show in Italy was the largest concert ever for a single artist in history where people paid for tickets.

And that was only the official "attendance"...

actually, is sure that we were (I was there :wink: ) some more.
The real attendance was probably close to 170.000 but for some burocracy reason (security?) that wasn't untold.
