So far, most shows in the United States are not soldout for Coldplay. Boston, 2 shows in New York and one California show are soldout. Large cities like Philadelphia and Washington DC still have lawn tickets available for only $30. The tweeter Center in Camden/Philly has a capacity of about 25,000, while the Bristow VA/Washington DC venue has a capacity of 20,000.
It will be easier to judge Coldplay's overall popularity once the full weeks sales figures are actually in. If the hyped numbers are correct for the album sales, then it appears that Coldplay's concert ticket selling ability is well behind its album selling ability in North America.
