#86 DTRW TOUR - Sep 25 2019 - Madison Square Garden, NYC, NY, US(w.Bonnie Raitt)

Still a lot of tickets available but it looks like the situation improved a bit, they must be close to had sold at least half of the venue...

...after lowering ticket prices by good amounts 

... and despite that I'm not sure if the blue spots are more or less than the white ones yet.

It's to late now to cancel the show...  So I am fine with that.
A bit disappointed that it won't be crowded but still happy to go

[Kris-b]

The good thing is that th ticket scalpers won‘t be able to make much money with selling their tickets.  Perhaps that prevents them doing  that again.

There was a tv commercial on NY/NJ/CT the other night. First time in memory that there was any advertising for a Markie show since DS 1992!

I still think it'll be a sellout.

The new CBS interview mentions it too.  Hopefully it'll raise interest.

I can't wait but I can't believe this is the last concert

It's not the last. Read Guy.

I know but I'm afraid the last big tour.

I'm not afraid about being the last big tour, in the contrary. The best thing he can do, it´s, like MK says "it has to be normal traveling for old man", a tour of selected places, in Europe and in the US, those places where he knows he sell out the venues and the cities and venues he really loves to play, from a 85 concerts tour to a 30 concerts tour or less. If he doesn't want to retire from touring at all as he is saying lately.

I hope you're right, jbaent.   I can't bear the thought of not seeing Mk in concert again and if he does continue touring, but on a reduced scale, it could be much more difficult to get tickets, due to demand.   We will have to keep our eyes and ears open and be very quick on the button!      I look forward to seeing you somewhere again.

Someone still an update how much ticket still available.

When Eric Clapton stopped touring and only did three or four concerts at the RAH in May, to get tickets was more difficult, but we are experienced purchasing tickets with the fair admission and presales, so we don't have problem to get tickets, but the general audience that doesn't know about the FA and presale... I managed to get tickets to Clapton at the RAH two years ago, using the "what´s Eric" presale, for example, and it was the only time I tried, so, 100% of success, LOL

A die-hard fan will always find a way to buy a ticket for any price so it's not a problem at all
What about tickets price? Will it reach stratosphere in that case by the way? With a smaller tour.

Yes and I believe that it will be so. But for many of us the days are over when Mark came to you.
