No, he didn't sell out the Greek, a lot of people bought tickets, but it sadly wasn't sold out. It could have been, but the Eagles played the same day. Darn. :P But he sells a lot, it also depends on whether its on a weekend or not because a lot of the people who go are obviously kids.

there was 13,000 at the WI Valley Fair, and probably a few hundred more at the MN state fair.

did he sell out there? or at least, get a decent portion of the audience to show up? that's about the size of the place I wrote the letter to.

I thought about that, but it'll be dated by the time he starts touring.

This audience may have been larger since people who were at the fair who wouldn't normally seek out a venue to see Al, saw him since they were conveniently already there.

Just Speculation.

I agree with Well, Well, Well. Maybe Obama or Hillary. Jamie Lynn is kinda old now. Hopefully a celeb will do something stupid in the next months.
