Not even able to sell out one date in NYC, what a shame...


That probably has to do with bad timing if anything. Janet tried to get something going but I guess it was done at such an inopportune time. She did OK tho. She may sell out in Japan...maybe.


The NYC date was announced very late. I think many people in the area had already committed to the NJ show that was announced much earlier and couldn't afford to go twice.

The whole thing was piss poor planning. Why she felt THIS was the time to tour, in the FALL, after a flop album, is beyond me. Then she decided to hit the road at THE EXACT SAME TIME Madonna and Tina were already selling out dates in the U.S. Then we all know what happened when she actually hit the road...

but either way I feel so lucky to have seen the show, which was fucking great, better than sex.
I'll leave it alone babe...just be me

No,I don't think it was a bad idea for her to tour.Touring makes sense.It just wasn't executed properly.Considering that only two shows soldout,she probably should have either played smaller venues or toured with a "hot" opening act (someone like Robin Thicke) which would have helped move tickets.

If she ever decides to tour again,she's gonna have to plan it properly,even if it means hiring new management.

Where do these numbers come from? I want to see the numbers for George Michael and Tina Turner's shows at American Airlines Center in Dallas. Those were both end shows and I'm pretty sure the capacity was much more than what's being listed here as the max capacity. hmmm


Yes, id like to see Tina Turner's numbers - does anyone have it?
