Don't forget, Simsy, that likely at least 50 of those are going BOTH nights. It's the same clowns going to the former circus. Too bad there aren't 147 clowns in New York. Then you could count 2 sellouts. More like 5, 10 at the outside. There aren't that many that will go long distances or to expensive cities. I've been to the same thing two nights in a row just once, and that was in Dayton (hotel not too expensive), and I had another reason for going farther than usual, to see the Air Force Museum, which is huge and takes at least a couple of days to see most of it. I wouldn't have gone that far for one reason alone, but for two reasons, and with the tickets not being that much compared to hotel+gas, it made sense. As I recall, there were minor changes to the patter, and on the 2nd one she may have done only one encore rather than the usual two.

Jackie is and always will be the Angel of Music! (doesn't mean she has to be stereotyped as an actual angel) The problem is you have still elevated Jackie to angel status by saying that.

I just asked Disappointed to tell us a singer she likes and you took that post off! This is how to do it: "Disappointed, can you tell us what singers you like?" It's not what you posted.

I guess Disappointed can post what ever she wants! I already addressed that, but you seem to have a memory problem. Just what does Disappointed have to say to have her post removed? She has to post disparaging off-topic material.

Don't forget, these aren't normal concerts, they're "sympathy bone" concerts. Thrown by her former buddies who feel sorry for her, in fact they even posted to that effect during her year of disappearing. No doubt they have regulars and friends/family that have been approached to attend. In fact, for all we know some of those tickets may have been comped. So rather than just having a fundraiser to show their support, they agreed to have a couple of money losing concerts to make her feel like she is still a big star. I will maintain my theory that the majority attending will attend both nights. And will be mainly club regulars, friends/family and the usual OTTs.

The angel of music has been done ✅ it was ok when Jackie was 10 -11 years old but after that no!

Geesh Disappointed, she's struggling to sell tickets at a small venue, and you still feel the need to kick her when she's down? Says more about you than her. Jackie still sells seats by the hundreds in some venues (see OC, see Xmas concert, see April TX concert). The restaurant scene, ie. the Wineries and 54 Below, not so much. So this is to be expected. This venue is more of an opportunity for her to try out her Solla music in front of a live audience, as well as revisot some of the classic Jackie oldies.

The question is whether Jackie wants to play large venues though at this point, if she wants to open or co-headline a tour in larger venues. ... So its a question of what SHE wantsGood to know. I hope she chooses a Superbowl. And another inaugural. [Political references removed.]

Jackie still sells seats by the hundreds in some venues (see OC, see Xmas concert, see April TX concert) Yeah, I don't have to "see" any of that. The OC concerts were with the Pops orchestra at a major boating festival and people would have turned out to the concert regardless of if Jackie or some local singer was performing. And she had the backing of some rich old lady there with some clout. That may no longer be the case, considering they didn't invite her this year. The Christmas concert was in her hometown and supported by local businesses, lots of friends, relatives and freebie ticket handouts. The Texas concert was at some non profit Christian venue if I recall and was likely organized by some OTT who had seen her in Texas back in the days of the Houston concert, etc. when she sang more religious type songs. So all one-offs with some type of unusual circumstances. The concerts targeted at the overall public with no sponsoring or freebie tickets such as the Wineries give a true indication of her ability to draw a crowd (or not).

LoL...we all know how much she is struggling to put on concerts, but still good to see that she can get audiences of 500 give or take from time to time.

It all depends on we’re Jackie sings , some places she does a lot better than others ! Jackie should stick with those parts of the country we’re she does well ! I think she should do what she did when she first got started, by posting a lot of Utube videos, except this time it should be original songs, maybe one of her original songs might make big, it won’t cost her much to do that !
