Hillary Clinton and the €1,000-ticket book tour

With low overheads and sky-high ticket prices, Hillary Live is a book tour like no other
On the website of the world’s biggest live music promoter, Live Nation,Hillary Clinton is listed, beside Guns N’ Roses and Ed Sheeran, as an “artist”.

Clinton has just begun a four-month tour to promote her recently published new political memoir, What Happened, and like a many touring act she will be glad that the first show of Hillary Live on Monday, September 18th in Washington, DC was a resounding success. The 1,847-capacity audience welcomed her with a sustained standing ovation.

With great first-night reviews and several shows already sold out, more dates are likely to be added to this four-month North American tour. Clinton has 15 shows listed so far and will play – or talk – to 1,500-2,000 each night.

Clinton is not yet a threat to the Live Nation band that currently have the biggest selling tour of the year: U2. But the Clinton events will be highly profitable in their own right, due to their high ticket prices and low production costs.

You'd think that with her very substantial retirement benefits (U.S. Senate, 1/2 of Bill's presidential pension, Social Security) she'd have enough to get by on.

1800 people? Small potatoes. High school football games in Texas get five times that, for under $10 a ticket.
