Would you still buy tickets to the American Idol 2015 tour if the number of finalists performing was halved? It’ll be interesting to see how ticket sales do this season, but don’t expect many details on that from us. We tend to avoid ticket discussions since the company that owns the company that owned Idol threatened to sue us for promoting their concerts a few years back. Seriously. I’m sure they’ll do just fine without our help.
