You all heard/read the article from The Mirror...
1mlnEUR/show isn't much actualy...

Why?

Because:

1) We are talking about stadiums only...

2) Take even the smallest stadium, lets say 60,000 people and multiply it by the cheapest ticket's cost and you'll get 2,5mlnEUR... remember that most stadiums have much more room than 60.000... some of them are even for 90-100,000 people... and the cheapest tickets are not a majority also...

The above would explain why tickets in Europe are so expensive compared to U.S. tickets.
Also the tour is alread sold out, the band already have the money! They know what the can and what they can't do.
(not like on PopMart when they were both touring and still selling tickets)

Magic tricks or not, ZOOTV/PopMart part2 or not, there's nothing to worry, they already have the money to make it.
 
But Popmart didn't even cost half that much per show, did it? I want to know what the hell they plan to do that could possibly cost so much.
 
Lets search hidden messages in that article:

The band are set to put on their most explosive shows ever which will cost over EUR1million a night to stage.

Real fireworks on the sky?

A top Vertigo tour insider told me they are planning their most elaborate stage design to date.

One Lemon for every member of the band? A huge airplane over the stage with 4 Trabants on each wing?
:p

He said: "There is going to be a total of over 3,000 lights, their biggest sound system and five video screens.
Electricity bills...
