Those are some pretty poor numbers from Alice Cooper.

You know your washed up when Cinderella draws more fans...

Alice should start doing Weddings and Bar-Mitzfa's.

Take it from me, Columbus truly sucks ass for attendence. That city only cares about fucking college football and won't go out to support a good show. Only 550 would turn out to see Ministry! They drew twice that at the other dates listed and The Revolting Cocks apparently weren't even on the bill! That's piss poor.

I went to a Hammerfall/EdGuy show in Columbus that seriously drew maybe 200 people. FUCKING PATHETIC!

It is all about advertising on radio and print.The more the people know about the concerts the more attend the shows.
Maybe he has a bad promoter or manager?.


Alice Cooper is just as good as he was years ago.

The crowd is full of 30 - 40 year old women who wont let their youth go! I saw them last year and the palce was full of old chicks who thought they were hot....

I must give credit were credit is due though, Leppard still sounds good live....

about 4 years ago and have always passed up on Def Leppard over the years. Fuck it, I'm gonna go check them out in October to see how they rock it live. On a whim I bought the Historia DVD and was thoroughly impressed with their live performance on there.

Def Leppard/Journey pwns all the others. Selling out almost every show, drawing people by the thousands. Anyone who says they're washed up is just jealous.

I love all these bands on this list. I'm glad to see that def leppard is resilient after all these years, as well as journey. Surprised to see that cinderella's numbers are up there with Ministry. Way to go Cinderella! And Tool's looking tough as well.

Ministry and Alice Cooper are doing well considering, but it would be nice to see their numbers go up in the future.

I saw the Lep/Journey show in San Diego and it was sold out, even the lawn area in the back was packed. I had forgotten how bubblegum journey was...But it has been 20 years since I've heard them. I dunno how many people fill up Coors Ampitheater but there was a ton. The retro 80s hair bands are selling their shows out. I suppose it's to live a little of the past again. People were even wearing mullet wigs...and the chicks were dressed 80s. Some things need to be left in the 80s...

to see Def Leppard! The concert was SOLD OUT! The place holds over 20,000. There was teenagers, 20,30 and 40 year olds. Don't tell me that only 30 and 40 year old people Love Def Leppard because your bullshitting yourself
