Again it's a little hard to do this without an interactive map...although with a bit of "hunt and pecking" this one too looks like a near sellout.

Of course it's a sellout. Place holds 13,700 for an End Stage concert and The Crue have already set the bar that 7,400 is a sell out for this venue. :lol:

7,400 is a sellout at the BOK Center? What? That can't be correct ...

Yes, yes, yes, while the Crue are doing damn good on their Final Tour, it seems that every show is a sell out just based on tickets sold and not venue capacity. A feat that was called out here when KISS did the same thing in 09.

Yeah...I caught some of those numbers. All power to MC, but a lot of those sellouts are completely fabricated. I'm not blaming them, all bands pull the same, "sold out of all tickets made available" bullshit. The numbers are good but they had to pull the farewell card coupled with $10 seats to do it...and PLENTY of $10 seats at that! Did you see some of those ticket averages?

Back to KISS, I'm guessing it's a near sellout based on a ~12,500 end stage configuration. MC's sellout of 7,424 has to be based on a half round or the entire top tier curtained off. Or maybe just, "whatever we sold we'll call a sellout"! :D

I'd been following the sales daily about 2 weeks before the show to see when the unsold meet and greet seats would be released. Lucked out and was on the computer when they did. Took forever due to their system having issues, but I got my ticket.

When I was able to get 2nd row floor I also figured they didn't sell all the meet n greet seats.

Didn't Gene act as lead singer this show?
Seemed like more than 80% of songs were his.

I don't post here often but thought I would pass this along for perspective : while this was my 63rd show I had three first timers with me. These guys are all half my age (early 20's). To a man they were completely blown away. They couldn't stop talking about a bunch of 50-60+ old guys putting on a show that smokes the bands they follow. Put a smile on my face and maybe made me think about being a little less jaded. These guys do still put on a hell of a show. They didn't let me down tonight. As for attendance, not sold out but a solid 90% capacity to my eye.

Great photos! I took lots when confetti cannons went off! There was so much the Special Events Guy claimed it was more than any other show.
