Ticket sales in Pittsburgh



An interesting note in an article from last Tuesday's Pittsburgh Post-Gazette about ticket
sales there.

Thanks to Ian at The Who: Maximum R&B for pointing this out:

"The Who, generally an arena or stadium act, performed its first show at the amphitheater,
drawing a disappointing 11,663 in June. 'I don't think [Pittsburgh has] been a
tremendously successful Who market over time,' [Post-Gazette Pavilion executive director
Lance] Jones says. 'Also, there was a crush of shows in that time frame, and the [Who]
ticket prices were somewhat aggressive.'"
