Selling out multiple arenas is the same as selling out stadiums

Beyonce never tried to do stadiums in the US...so we don't know what her selling power would be w/ them in the US

She's never tried, but she could I mean from one tour:
Staples Center Los Angeles 41,742 / 41,742 (100%) $5,327,057
Verizon Center Washington D.C. 41,207 / 41,207 (100%) $4,716,549
Barclays Center New York City 69,667 / 69,667 (100%) $9,053,050
Of course you'd be naive to say that the joint tour wasn't pushing the sales, but I think it's more of the "wow Beyoncé and Jay-Z!" factor, rather than a fusion of both fanbases. From what I've seen online through the past few days the majority of people have been referring to these as "Beyoncé tickets", not to mention Jay's last tour had a lot of unsold dates. And of course, Bey never returned to America with the new album when people were literally desperate for it.

You're combining shows from different legs 
And one of those staples center dates was part of the BET Experience.
I'm not dragging her so I don't know why people are saying I'm getting dragged back.
People are just making it seem as though Beyoncé is carrying Jay Z across this. From you, I haven't seen that but others are acting like this is solely her power

Yeah, Bey broke the record. She was the first headliner to sell out the Dome during Essence history. But Essence Festival attracts mostly tourists from all over the country. This tour is for the NOLA residents...IDK if their economy is fully up to par. Have other artists had concerts at the Superdome recently?

The BET experience was her show though and grossed less than her other LA shows, so not sure why that's relevant - and it was all under the same tour and same album and same show so it makes no difference  (this is off topic anyway)
But there's absolutely no way of telling who is carrying the ticket sales so lets just leave it at that

Today my friend tried to get tickets to LA and to her dismay, they were gone. She didn't listen to me when I told her they were gonna add another show 100%. She went on stubhub

Of course the Jayonce fans are the ones buying the tickets,but of course we can't deny the obvious,that Bey has always been the main attraction in that relationship.

The original rumoured date was August 3rd, so I think that might be the double date if there is one.

Beyoncé is clearly the main attraction here. I see this tour as a transitional point for her. More stadiums dates, and less arenas. Then again she might go back to arenas.

I'm going for Beyonce. I only know a couple of Jay-Z songs, along with most of his collabs, and of course his ones with Bey.
I think most people are going because of the hype, but I could be wrong.

The problem I have is how the execute the stage time. For the Enrique/J.Lo and Ke$ha/Pitbull ones each did their own setlist and had nothing to do with the others set. Legends of The Summer was kinda all over where either would be on for a song or two but had no real reason to be.

Guess I was wrong. Someone who works for roc nation said they are deciding if they should have the concert at metlife or yankees stadium which is why the tickets aren't on sale. They also said more dates would be added.
