Remember, Denver is not an A market. NuGNR was here a couple of years ago and they played the 1st Bank Center which holds 7,500 and it was half full. There was no marketing or anything for that show which was weird. Metallica sold well this year because it was the KBPI Annual Birthday Bash, and it is Metallica. I'm not a huge fan but at least they put out new music. To top things off, there is Colorado Rockies game going on at 6:30PM today, so down town is going to be a nightmare. Denver is an A market. They get all the big bands and have one of the greatest venues in the world at Red Rocks. Denver is a major hub and bands stop there all the time on their way to the west or east coast. It's a major concert market. Metallica did more than sell well. They sold out and it had nothing to do with birthday bash. Also the Denver downtown isn't that bad after ball games. Been there done that. It's one of the easier downtown cores to navigate when it's insanely busy so........ 34 minutes ago, KeyserSoze said: Thats just how America keeps crowd control... The only band i know that has not had seats on the floor on their tour of America lately has been Metallica... I was on the floor for GNR in NOLA last year and could not see a damn thing. I kept having to look up at the big ass side stage screens. All the people in the seats on the side usually sit down after 5 songs anyway. U2 hasn't had seats on the floor since the Popmart tour in the 90s. U2 just toured the United States and will again in the fall and they didn't and won't have seats on the floor. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arisson Rose Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 In my opinion the show is being sold very well, I think they are missing a maximum of 3k tickets! I think they sold about 40k !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the bigger bands play at the Pepsi Center or Fiddler's Green. Red Rocks is too small for the big bands. From the looks of things it will probably do around 30K. Ticketmaster keeps opening and closing rows of seats all over the stadium, and they just opened up a -ton- of tickets.

nolanjs55 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 For a bunch of teenagers, a ga crowded floor would be fun. But now at 35 I like my seats. Plus no way in hell my causal fan friends or girlfriend would push their way up to be up front with me. With a seat I can sit in front Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dustinm1 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Is anyone going to pick up the litho from the merch truck when it opens? If so can you see how many they have at the truck. My flight was delayed and was hoping to be there when it opened to pick one up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a seat I can sit in front I'm 51 and managed just fine in GC in London, in fact I loved it! Thinking about it now though maybe those around me were thinking 'watch out for that old bird' 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
