Does anybody know what the total ticket sales were for Zeppelin? Even the 1977 tour total ticket sales would be great. (Based on venue capacities I figure approximately 923K saw the tour before it was canceled, [aprox 303K for the 7 canceled shows] but I can't find many official sales numbers for the tour.) The only records for concert sales totals I can find only go back to 1980, and therefore don't include Zep. I am certain it is in the millions; I just wonder how Zeps numbers stack up to say U2 with 26+ million, Dave Mathews at 23+ million, Stones with 22+ million, Springsteen at 21 million, Elton John at nearly 20 million. I was one of 62,000 fans who went to the '77 Tour show in Seattle on July 17th in the Kingdome (which based on venue sizes would have been very likely the largest crowd after the record-breaking Pontiac Dome concert.) I was working the day tickets went on sale, I had my buddy wait in line and buy 10-100 level (best tickets available) tickets, one of which I gave him for the trouble, ($10 each) to resell at face value to friends, most of which I ended up giving away to my neighborhood buds. With the tour cut short due to the death of Plant's son, it was one of the last four shows they ever performed in the US. From 1968 to 1980 Zeppelin did 28 tours, 11 of which were in North America. 6 in the UK. On the 1977 Tour Led Zeppelin played 45 concerts in 25 cites, before the tour was canceled 4 shows into the 11 scheduled shows of the 8 city third leg. I know venue sizes were much smaller on many of the tours, for instance on the '75 tour they played two nights at the Seattle Coliseum (15,000/sold out show.)
