I wholeheartedly agree. In my eyes, R&H is in u2's top 5 albums.

Back in 1987 I remember this argentinian promoter, Daniel Grinbank, stating that he was negotiating the first visit of U2 to Argentina and he even mentioned a december date for the concerts. Obviously, the negotiations didn´t succeed but based on this and other info provided by others here I...

Great numbers? For me, alongside Turkey, it´s the most disappointing result of the whole tour.

Amazing!

I could be wrong but I also thought the shipping number was 5.0/5.5 million for NLOTH. I don´t have a source but I remember this was mentioned here sometime during late 2010.

I wonder how much more bullshit from this guy we are supposed to take before he´s banned for good.

Oh, I see, thanks for the clarification Maoil.

Either you´re the biggest moron in the history of mankind or you think we all are stupid. Nearly 2,000 is 1,900 or so, or do you have a personal definition for the word? Eitherway, 2,000, 1,900 or 1,800 is the same for argument sake. You fucked up big time again and when proved wrong for the...

Only 50,000 for Discotheque?? I thought it attained gold status, i.e. 500,000 copies.

This guy is going to get yet another thread closed.

Hey Moggio, If you deem openers so important why did you made gross predictions before openers were announced? This is obvious an excuse to cover your butt now. And YOU KNOW IT :lol::lol: I know it´s very embarassing for you but the truth is Maoil´s predictions were way more accurate than...

Tell the european about that supposed draw increase of the Stones in most worldwide markets. Ha ha ha ha ha!

What logic???? This guy has been proven wrong countless times and yet, he won´t give up. Sure, even a two year old child would realize his lame and ridiculous arguments don´t hold any water. I for one love to see how Maoil and others repeatedly kick his ass so Moggio/no control, keep it coming...

I´m not sure about that. The stadium did look full on sunday, at least the same level as wednesday. Let´s wait to Billboard boxscore but I say nearly 180,000 people showed up for the three La Plata gigs.

Actually, La Plata´s stadium has a capacity of 53,000. 36,000 are the number of seats not the total capacity. I say the grand total for the three concerts in La Plata will be around 160,000-170,000

Oh yeah? How come the Use your illusion tour is not considered the highest attendance tour in history then? This has to be the most ludicrous claim I´ve read in this forum or elsewhere for that matter. You sure know how the music business work. :lol::lol::lol: Please, stop making a fool of...

The attendance estimate for the Use your illusion tour must be wrong. Its common knowledge that the all time record is held by the Voodoo Lounge tour with 6.45 M. Obviously this record will be smashed by U2 sometime during the upcoming US leg of their 360 tour. Also, the estimation for the Steel...

I heard it on another U2 forum. Apparently, some local (argentinian) radio stations suggested it a couple of days ago. Let´s wait and see.

Precisely, if you try and select some of the sections that are not sold out, a message would pop up stating that it´s very close to sell out and there are not contigous seats available. Still, there are as much as 9-10 sections that apparently are not close to sell out. These I´m worried about...

The 160.9 figure has to be wrong. What´s the average gross for a 360 tour concert? 5-6 million? Then the grand total should be around 180 M, good for the second spot.

I guess it all comes down to how long it takes for the second show to sell out. Things don´t look very bright right though. Not that they can´t announce the third show (or the second in Santiago for that matter) in January for example. For Popmart, I recall the third show didn´t sell out right...

BoyOnTheHorizon, do you know how the presale for the third show in Sao Paulo has gone? I mean, can we expect a fast sold out tomorrow or will it take longer? I guess this is important to determine whether the rumored show in Porto Alegre will be added or not.

Well, the average attendance in the US was below 70,000-75,000 as in Argentina and Chile, let alone 85,000-90.000 in Brazil so that´s not a valid reason for higher ticket prices in South America.

This is really bad news. Do you think a second show in Santiago is unlikely at this point?

Actually, it´s kind of a disappointment. Tickets for the first show sold out much faster. Hope I´m wrong but at this pace I doubt there will be a third show in Argentina. Or maybe ticketek is not updating its website frequently enough? Heres hoping.
