Take, for example, the top 4 <a href="http://eventful.com/performers/P0-001-000000067-4/demands" rel="nofollow">demands</a>. They're all "X City metro area" (then you get 2 international ones, and another 8 metro areas), so people from a radius of about 100-200 miles from each city would probably be demanding there, at a rough estimate. Over here, our cities are about that far apart anyway, so you get everyone voting for the city 25-50 miles away, and a lower concentration of people on each demand. In general, Americans seem to be willing to go further (and stay overnight) to see a gig, I think.

My personal suggestion? Copenhagen, capital of Denmark. It's like the Canada of Europe, according to South Park. Student town, as well as have one million inhabitants. An audience of 100+ would probably not be a huge challenge. Regardless. I'd be perfectly happy if you came to Scandinavia. Any european capital could probably garner enough audience members.

Tom Cruise isn’t getting any giggles from a new strain of medical marijuana being marketed as “Tom Cruise Purple.”

Word is that the actor’s lawyers are taking a serious look at the strong brand of bud after we brought it to their attention.

One of Cruise’s friends found it “outrageous” that licensed cannabis clubs in Northern California are selling vials of pot featuring a picture of Cruise laughing hysterically. ”

I don't know if you can do anything about it, just thought I'd ask.

Even more pleasant was the fact he said he will be coming to Toronto sometime this year. As the overall fifth-most demanded city, he had better!

Does it please you to see us suffer!?! I know you hate California, but we are people too, you know (well, some of us!)! And I live in OC so I can go to *both* the San Diego *and* the LA shows!
