I doubt that playing the MSG was an option early in scheduling the tour. Sound more like a last minute add-on in my ears. This is just speculations but they are as good as the others ones  :think
The haters are those who write shit

Probably... but I knew there was another US concert to be announced before the tour started, so they knew it months before it was announced officially.
You might get lucky, now and then

At the end of the day this has been yet another shambles by PCM.  I really hope this turns out well for Mark and the band, but especially those going to the show.

I prefer to see the romance is such a decision.

Last ever concert (potentially), why not choose one of the most iconic venues in the World and go out in style?

It isn't working out that way but I prefer to see the romance in all this.

That venue would be the radio city music hall, or the carneggie hall, not a sports arena...

Carnegie Hall would have been an excellent choice.  Or they could have stayed on the same side of the continent and played LA last, but at the Hollywood Bowl.

No. The Greek is also a very famous and nice venue. The Bowl is too big also.
But this won't be his last gig.

Maybe it is a test to see if he can fill it in the future as he only gives a concert in LA and Red Rocks and MSG and or Chicago.
Then in Europe Berlin, AMS, BRU and Paris and Royal Albert Hall

Hey MK!  Some of us are going to Carmine's (an Italian restaurant in Times Square).  Needs reservations for dinner, so if you'd like to join in, let me know and I will add you.  Otherwise, they have a bar if you just want drinks (or a light meal).  Others might be meeting elsewhere (at a nearby pub?), so that may be another option.  Or do both!    :D

..... Mark’s final show.....maybe ever.

You keep saying that but i've been told that this is not the last one.
MK himself said "no more travelling for old granddad" but im sure he'll do a small UK or even little Europe tour in the next years....

Still a lot of tickets available but it looks like the situation improved a bit, they must be close to had sold at least half of the venue...
