Sovereign Bank Arena (Trenton) Show

Obviously, this show is selling poorly, if I can pull up 14th row on the floor at this late date.

So, my question to the powers-that-be is when will the decision be made as whether or not to move the show to a smaller venue, or *gasp* cancel the show?

The Sovereign Bank Arena is being set up in a half house formation which means the capacity is 5,000 and the venue expects to do about 50%. There are no plans to move it.

Thanks for the information.

I'll guess there were about 1000 people on the floor and about 500 people in the stands.

Show started with an intro from a DJ with WMGK; Naked Eyes took the stage at 7:05 and played till 7:35; 10 minute set change and A Flock Of Seagulls played for 20 minutes; ABC played from 8:20 till 9ish; Belinda Carlisle played from 9:05 till 9:40. Times are approximate; didn't stay for THL.

Setlists didn't seem to vary from what's already been posted.

This tour is a"trial and error" tour. As with all tours,things differ from city to city. I can't believe you did not stay for The Human League. They shine on this tour! You truly did yourself a grave mis-service by leaving.

Haven't gotten the figures yet but I would estimate about 1500-1800 on the floor (about 3/4) and another 500-700 or so in the stands in the arena's 5,000 seat set up.

Just wanted to leave a note for Ric as I'm the guy who didnt receive a refund for the phoenix show after misprinted line ups and bands changes... Anyway as you read through the forum and various national newspaper reviews almost ALL reviews by journalists and fans agree that the new Flock suck..there hasnt been any favorable words about them and they were a very lame replacement for this tour as were missing persons.....

1500-1800 on the floor would mean there were 30-36 rows filled with people. The rows were basically 50 people across, and I counted 20 filled. That's how I came up with 1000 people on the floor. There were VERY few people in sections 4, 5 and 6, if any.
