Janet's tour selling well!

Janet Jackson's first tour in 7 years is selling fantastically according to the company running the show, LiveNation. In fact, it's such a sell-out that Madonna hasn't even sold as many tickets as Janet. That's great news for Janet, who's last album "Discipline" hasn't sold well at all! Have a read of this....

Madonna's ticket sales may have gotten off to a slow start, but Janet Jackson's are doing fine, claims Live Nation, their concert-tour company.

Jackson is hitting the road to promote her latest CD, "Discipline", which hasn't fared well on the charts since its February release.

But hopes are still high for Jackson's tour at Live Nation, where the chairman left last week after criticism that he was paying stars too much for the return. "She's a tour record-breaker, having grossed more than $100 million in her career".

So why is Jackson apparently selling well while only half of the seats at Madonna's L.A. show have been sold? Her tickets are cheaper than Madonna's, ranging from $46 to $126 at the Izod Center in New Jersey, for example, where Jackson performs Oct. 17. And unlike Madonna, who almost always favors her new material in shows, Jackson is willing to do the fan-favorite hits.

"We're very happy with the ticket sales," said a Live Nation spokesman. "She hasn't complained about us. Thank God."

Check This Out: Mariah's Migrate Cover

Pretty much unknown act Dave Patten has recorded a cover version of Mariah Carey's track "Migrate", which features on her latest album "E=MC2". The cover is actually surprisingly great and brings something new to the table. The original track is more of a R&B/Hip-Hop inspired track whereas Dave's version has a strictly acoustic/easy listening vibe.
