HELSINKI (over 8 000 seats icehall)sold OUT!!

AS you can see Stray Cats show in Helsinki for over 8 000 people is sold out...so other europeans and americans you can try follow that and "make it bigger"...only bad thing is that holiday season is over in finland at that time and show is in middle of the week,so maybe "not so wild" audience..but,but

Finland Rules!!!!!

Wish I had a cold Lapin Kulta right now!!!

I wouldn't worry about a Finnish crowd being "not so wild," even if it is a mid-week show. With 8,000 seats sold, it oughta be one of the wildest shows on the tour!

(And should possibly be filmed for posterity...)

Finland rocks!

"not to wild" hmm Finnish crowd dont know that words.

Wow, that's impressive. I wish they could draw like that in the States.

Anyone have a sales figure for the Costa Mesa show so far?

And that makes this story EXTRA SWEET!!!!

According to Free! Magazine, Ted Nugent's previously announced July 7 concert at the Cable Factory in Helsinki, Finland has been cancelled "because of disappointing ticket sales."

Poor ted

ha ha ha...yes now Ted has time to shoot his shotguns and get ready for repuplicans president´s campaign..ha ha

I hate to burst any bubbles, selling out shows anywhere nowadays is a great accomplishment, but Brian's biggest show is his two nights at the Gibson Amphitheater in Los Angeles California.
The B.S.O. have continually sold out two nights for many years now. Making that a concert draw of almost 14,000 people!

Would you say the biggest crowd for which the BSO performed was Woodstock?
Maybe somebody can give us the estimated total number of people that were at that festival in 1999.

I think the biggest crowd Stray Cats ever played for was the US Festival in Devore, California (28 May, 1983). I think the estimate for that day was 250,000 people.

Have a great and safe 4th!

I'd say you are correct on both counts Scatman,but don't forget those are festivals. people go to see one, some or all the bands. Festivals also draw people for the mere fact that they are festivals! not to mention all the radio promotion, free beachball giveaways etc.

Hard ticket sales of 14,000 is a lot of Butts in seats!

Tommo

Thanks for clearing that up for the young'uns.........I hope no one inferred from what I wrote that our boys had drawn those numbers. I'll be sure to be more careful next time with my assumptions.

Safe & Sane tomorrow!
