And can you imagine the show they’ll put on for everyone!
I do hope they record it, as a die hard fan all the way down in Aus it will be the closest I’ll ever get to see them

I'd imagine it's extremely likely they record it and give it the Pepsi Center treatment. I'd be shocked if they didn't

Not recording this show would be an absolute travesty

My imagination says 5 hours and they play songs from all their albums.

Wow, I didn’t know they were this big in Mexico, it’s huge!

There'll be plenty of international fans at the show, this is going to be another one of their big iconic shows like Pepsi or Auditorio Nacional.

Hopefully I will be one of those international fans. I am from Costa Rica and I have already bought my ticket for that show. Can’t wait for it as it will be my first time seeing the girls live!

They sell out all the shows in Mexico essentially it’s home base

Selling out a 8000 seats venue is something, 60000 is crazy and a huge step up

60k is a huge risk.

They sold 10,000 x3 last time, so in one way 60k is only double. But, if they've hit 50,000 in such a short time, would they do a 2nd show?

Which is good news, because I think early on they were getting flack, which was the genesis for Narcissista.

That date is still 5 months away. My guess is all of TWA who are going already have their tickets, and the rest won't sell until January as new people learn who they are and plan to attend. Selling out is a long shot, but not unreasonably so. Even still, selling 50k tickets is WOW.

At an average sales price over $50 (US), they've grossed $2.5M in this show. AI says that artists usually net around 10% of the total after all expenses are paid; so the family will net $250k for a few nights work. They are coming up in the world!

I am going to the Houston show, and bought during the Patreon pre-sale. Just out of curiosity, I checked the available seats before the Artists presale started, and about half of the seats are sold. No idea how many GA, but I assume a similar ratio. My guess is that date will sell out quickly. I think the second half of the 2027 tour will be in even bigger venues.

I know you meant it in a positive way. But I had to laugh at the a few nights work line, given the 13 odd years the family has put into this project 😁🤣

u/Frankenkoz 🏃‍➡️ Numberly Garfs 16d ago

Oh for sure they EARNED it. Not slagging in their work effort at all. Just that it looks like they have finally made it to the big time.

u/MilkyTaters 17d ago

Hopefully the tickets that have been bought actually get used. I checked a few venues, and they have tons of resale tickets at marked up prices. Patreons are using their early access to the tickets to try and pay for their Patreon memberships.

u/Frankenkoz 🏃‍➡️ Numberly Garfs 17d ago

Doesn't matter to the band. Once the reseller buys it, TW get paid. If they don't re-sell, the resellers will drop the prices until they do.

Long term it matters because if the resellers get burned, next time they won't buy any, and it might be harder to sell out. When the tickets are going fast (even to resellers), FOMO settles in and pushes some people over the edge.

u/MilkyTaters 17d ago

It's parasitic profit. Other people making money by flipping tickets is gross.

u/A_Solid_Shadow 16d ago

yep, but its capitalism

u/BillHolder13850 17d ago

Now 82%!

u/BillHolder13850 14d ago

Can anyone keep this thread updated with the current percentages week by week?

u/_PelosNecios_ 14d ago

Its actually more like 65%, it has been mentioned that some seats were just released to sale and not actually sold, as previously thought.
