    Monday night in Buffalo has a lot to do with it.

    A lot of cities in easy access of Buffalo. A Monday makes it a much taller order for people to make the trip.

    I think it`s both the prices and the locations.
    People just don't have the money to buy a pair of tickets.
    And most of the shows are on weekdays :? For those of us who cant take off work to travel we are pretty much screwed.

    And location :lol:
    Come on........If some of these show would have been in the south
    Tennessee(Memphis,Nashville)
    Arkansas (Little Rock)
    Texas (anywhere in Texas)
    Florida (anywhere in Florida)
    Georgia (Atlanta)
    they would be selling out 8-)

    They would not be sellouts. None of the south shows in 2008 were sellouts for fan club.

    You really think Little Rock is gonna sell out over Tampa, Kansas City, St. Louis, Indianapolis (2 hours from Chicago), Cleveland, Buffalo, WPB, etc....? Nope. Not going to happen. Neither will Dallas or Houston or Atlanta. Sorry.

    Neither of us really know do we?
    All I do know is that tickets for Kansas City, St. Louis, Indianapolis are still available as we speak.
    And yes if it was Dallas or Atlanta they would be selling better imo.
    Like I said in my first post , the dates of these shows aren't helping at all.
    Shows that are on Sunday, Monday,Tuesday,and Wednesday are really hard for people who have to travel.We all have jobs .

    there is nothing more we would like to do then be old hippies and jump in a van and see every show in the midwest. Thats a pure dream, lifes responsibilities keep us from that. We can't be gone from our business now for more than 2-3 days so for us its KC and that looks to be it this tour unfortunately. Ny would have been a nice weekend trip and Hartford which I'm about to lose my mind with is our anniversary on a Sat so that would be doable. I'm not getting my hopes up though.

    i was thinking of going to indy, but i wont have a car when i travel this time, and getting to noblesville without a car id imagine is a huge pain in the ass, last time i saw them in noblesville on the 03 tour i think it was, i ahd car, it was easy to get around. but if you have no car? how the fuck do you get to that woodshed venue? its kind of in the middle of nowhere, there is that one road with the main drag and stores and stuff, but other than that is alot of farmland, id imagine a taxi from indy airport to the venue would cost an arm and a leg???

    kind of wish they had chose conseco fieldhouse instead to play at
