In no particular order I'm guessing the 4 toughest cities to get will be NYC, Philly, Seattle, and Baltimore.  

I think the 4 easiest will be Wrigley, Boston, LA, and maybe Mizzoula or Vegas.

    Hard.   They sold out two shows the baseball stadium in 2018.  Fans want to see the hometown shows.  The Arena has less than half the capacity of the baseball stadium.   If they can sell out two baseball stadiums in seattle, two arena shows are going to be a hard get.  Seattle is always a hard get.

    Sacramento will be the easiest 

    NY will be the hardest and it won’t even be close.

    Generally anything in the PNW that isn't Seattle isn't horrible.  Portland, Vancouver etc... might not be so bad.

    I'm thinking Vancouver 2 might low demand.  I was trying to recruit people for Vancouver, and lots of people onboard for the saturday show, but less people wanting to go to the Monday show if they can not burn vacation days and go to the Saturday show.

    Historically ten club usage has been low in Vancouver (they did a 2nd draw for GA in 2013) except in years where there is no Seattle show (that causes migration of US people to Vancouver).    I'm still shocked there's 2 in Vancouver.

    MSG will be hardest, then Seattle, then Philly Saturday. Baltimore will most likely be a lot easier this time.
