ADD is a fucking blast! Everytime I read Pugs posts I become stricken with it!
Carry on! |

Glencar, I am not the proponent of Adda..........I use my own gut instinct. Moreover, official reports, confirmed 3k empties .That is a large amount my friend...Only arounf 42k the other night. |

Joshy, they must have let 2985 folks in for free then because I didn't see too many empty seats although the 3 next to me were which I ascibe to someone deciding not to go because I can't imagine why those wouldn't have sold. Have a great time at Giants! |

I read official tally on another very reliable board...not horrible considering 5 shows, weekn ight, but remember, $22.50, ticket giveaways, etc.........50k would have been nice. |

2002; 53, 642 (Credit Soldatti reporting Billboard final numbers) Gillette sold out. Today, 45k was # of available tickets and only 42k!!! These are hard facts. Plus, the stage was basically the same set up !!!"
We obtained the numbers from Billboard....although IORR is reporting that the 2002 Gillette show had 68,000 in attendance.
As jb and others would say..."I rest my case" |

The was no significant change in the floor layout-certainly not one that would eliminate over 11k seats!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

It didn't look like they'd moved the stage up. I'm not sure why so many fewer seats. Like Throbby, I too looked around & didn't notice empty sections. I did notice that there was plenty of space at the back of field level, more than usual but that didn't account for more than a few hundred seats. |

Crew members and out of work actors were used to fill up the seats, like they do on award shows when people get up...
Seat fillers must've been used! |
