#they (not dnp directly) definitely spent more money on promo this time. i wonder how this spending is gonna come back especially in europe

I know you might not have all the info, but just based off what you've observed, is tit selling better than wad? Outside of the uk, I mean.

hard to tell because wad had more shows everywhere, therefore more of them had problems with sales. but right now Europe looks worse than during wad, and i don't see dnp and their team trying to save it via bought ads. lowering ticket prices is nice, but they (Phil) also mislead people by saying Europe lowered it to 35 euros. it's not true, and i think it's also illegal to make false statements in advertising :) some venues didn't lower the prices at all, at least for now.

Australia/NZ now look a bit better that wad. fewer shows but more sections of the venues are on sale and they are selling better.

USA/Canada... are complicated. lots of venues are not matching, so i'm not gonna do mental gymnastics and maths today, i'll do it when i have capacities of all new ones, sorry. the ones that ARE matching:

Portland (OR), Indianapolis, Chicago, Toronto, Philadelphia, Durham, Reading, Red Bank - now better than wad;

Oakland - now worse than wad (linking a screenshot from 2022, so you can see it yourself. tbf, looking at it now, i don't think all sections were on sale but i didn't mention it in my post. so, our capacity in 2022 was less than 3040. now though, now everything is on sale);

Denver - now better than wad (in 2022 we couldn't see the chart, but by ticket selection, everything was on sale and worse than now, i think);

Kansas City - now almost the same as wad, at least for now (there are still 1 month to go);

St. Louis, New York, Fort Lauderdale - now a bit better than wad;

Tysons - now obviously better, although wad sold out this venue as well;

Orlando - now better than wad (if these fuckers aka venue/ticketmaster make "premium" tickets normally priced, it's gonna be sold out).

by matching venues the picture is very hopeful, but if you open each seating chart with available tickets, some are looking scary. even LA isn't half sold, which is very strange to me. but there's still time for everyone except Europe, and USA/Canada has a strong bought advertisement. it's the only leg who is still being promoted on Facebook/Instagram (from Phil's FB), and i see why :) wad had weaker promo, and the Phil factor wasn't there. so, i do think they are gonna be fine even if 10 USA shows lose money.
