If her whole tour is at arenas this size, she'll be going the way of the Black Keys an J Lo in no time.

I didn't do a deep dive, but I think this is the Cap One Hall ….that has a capacity of 1600
Not the Capital One Arena which has a capacity of 21 k

DC-Portsmouth 199 miles (getting out of DC on Thursday!)
DC-Atlantic City 190 miles (tough drive and tolls but Saturday)
Dc-Raleigh 277 miles (getting out of DC on a Tuesday)

Hardest ticket and priciest will be Atlantic City (hard rock). Easiest will be Portsmouth


Overall I think Portsmouth is the play

I checked atlantic city and Raligh today…neither even close to sold out…with pit tix available (yes some are resale, but some are standard)

that was kinda of surprising, thought these shows would be instant sell outs

It's Cap One Arena. https://cyndilauper.com/?playlist=ac113e2&video=88aafb7 I don't know all of these venues, but the ones in NYC, Chicago, Toronto, Montreal and LA are all 18K or more.
That’s the way ticket sales are

They don’t want to instantly sell out…it’s like airline ticketing…dynamic pricing


I got a seat for $150 all in for pirsmouth but seats behind me are now going for $250…if they can’t get that they will drop closer to show

It’s not about selling out but about selling to get maximum revenue
Now if $99 pit tickets are not selling that would be a bit of a red flag but then again people in their mid 50s pit?

People said same about Neil at lube and on show night Pavillion was packed

Luckily imp doesn’t do dynamic pricing but realistically can they hold out?
