Is Charlie Sheen's tour a bust?

Probably both. I know I don't care about seeing him ~ and if I did, I wouldn't pay scalper prices!

I might go see him if someone would pay me three times the price of a ticket. Of course, I would take my cell phone and expect an emergency.

So far, no good.. According to many paying fans.. It was reported that some of them left in the middle of the show demanding their money back.. Also heard that one guy booed him, as he spotted the guy and said, "Sorry dude, I already banked your money"... Glad I didn't waste my hard-earned cash on it... (no reflection on the performance, just don't care to go to such gatherings)..

It really doesn't make a difference, he still smiles all the way to the Bank.. Sweet G.

Rock Center, was sold out yes some had the BS, So why did they bother, He does his thing, and is himself.. Sweet G.

Pretty much from what I've seen and heard. Why anyone would pay to see that egomanical, self centered piece of crap is one for the books. If these people have nothing better to do with their money they ought to find a worthwhile charity to give it to rather than some drug addicted, alcoholic, worthless bum like Sheen.

Doesn't say much about the sanity of people these days other than they all must be as crazy as Sheen and like to watch themselves vicariously. Sheen is one of the biggest losers ever, and so must the people be that would pay to see his pathetically disgusting show.

That's the latest question surrounding Charlie Sheen's "My Violent Torpedo of Truth" 22-date North American tour, which begins April 2 at the Fox Theater in Detroit. Over the past several weeks, numerous media outlets have reported that a handful of dates on Sheen's forthcoming trek sold out within minutes. But it turns out that some of those reported sellouts -- including the opening date at the approximately 5,000-capacity Fox Theater -- still have tickets available on Ticketmaster.

CNBC reported on its Web site that so-called "secondary ticketing" companies like StubHub, NoFeesTickets.com and Bargainseatsonline.com snatched up "a lot" of tickets to many of Sheen's forthcoming shows and are now selling them for less than face value, which could suggest that fan demand for the tour is being overestimated by the media reports. As of Thursday afternoon, StubHub appeared to have about 300 tickets available for the Detroit show alone. But this isn't all that shocking.

In Friday's ticket-buying market, it's typical for secondary sellers to buy tickets in bulk for what they think will be hot-selling shows, whether it's Lady Gaga or U2. In the case of Sheen's tour, however, it seems that resellers may have misjudged the demand. Nevertheless, this won't impact the money Sheen grosses from the performances -- and that's not to mention merchandise and other ancillary revenue the actor will earn during the tour.

Even though fans didn't technically purchase some of the tickets through Ticketmaster, the tickets were still bought by another source, in this case secondary ticketers. "A ticket sold is a ticket sold, whether it's from Ticketmaster, CharlieSheen.com or the box office," Sheen spokesman Larry Solters tells Billboard. "Where they go after that, frankly we don't know.

We all know a re-seller will often post their tickets to multiple sites to promote their product. Solters notes that Sheen's tour has sold close to 100,000 tickets with no paid advertising.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
