i wouldn't be going to denver if it was only 1 night. but there also has to be enough demand to make the 2nd night worthwhile. sure they might get 500 more people willing to travel from far away for 2 nights, but of the people who would be going if it were only a 1 nighter, how many of them would also go to the 2nd?
the band loves playing at scranton and i'm sure there would be a bunch of people on here who would make the trip if it were 2 nights, but scranton hasn't been close to selling out 1 night, so even with all these extra people willing to travel, there might only be 5,000 there the 2nd night, which makes it not worth scheduling. now the only real way to see what would happen is to do 2 nights, but they're not going to take the risk because they can't even sell out 1 night.

do your homework before you troll or instigate, ya know?

but being a venue that typically gets 2 nights and sells ~40,000 tickets, you would think that there would be enough demand to sell out the one night they did get. i highly doubt every single person is going to both nights, so there should be more than enough people interested to sell out 1 night.
