There’s a reason Charlie Sheen is fighting for his day job. Reports from around the country are that his planned “Violent Torpedo Of Truth” tour, featuring a 21-venue live show, still has plenty of tickets available and are by no means sold out as previously claimed. The show itself is supposed to be a 70-minute rant by Sheen aided by the audience, multimedia and a few of Sheen’s “goddesses.” If all goes as planned, Charlie is supposed to pocket $7 million, including sales of Sheen merchandise. But CNBC reports some tickets are on sale for less than face value because they were purchased by secondary sellers who now “are bleeding Tiger Blood on their investment.”

Good. He needs a reality check. He has ruined a perfectly good show in 2 1/2 Men.
I take exception to you calling this show “perfectly good”…
Or ‘good’.
Or ‘show’.
I second that
“perfectly good” aka perfectly profitable.
It used be good…alright, just “ok.” Ok, ok…i never really watched it sober…i think it ran its course seasons ago when the kid hit puberty.
Charlie Sheen is a fake. A complete phony, and he’s playing his latest breakdown to the hilt and the public is falling for it. Why would anyone pay to hear Charlie Shee n rant on? The guy’s a dope and loony as a bat. Anyone who would pay to hear him must have their heads examined. I hope whoever is sponsoring him goes broke with this guy.
You gotta consider his upbringing…he hasn’t changed his tune since he was a teenager. I guess thats what growning up with a superstar actor dad and dating supermodels and actresses since you were a teenager does to you. WINNING!!
There is a whole lot more to the story than anybody has been told. Only Stuff that a small handful know about the real truth. So I’m in no postion to comment. Vegas money says whats going on covers up a much bigger scandal.
This dude is so passe now.
Hipster douche bag.
People are seeing the light.
It isn’t unusual for tickets to be available below face value for any show, these days.
especially in vegas.
Just do “Major League 4″ already…
Just do PLATOON 2: ELECTRIC TIGER BLOOD already.
Just do WALL STREET 3: BUD’S STILL IN THE BACKGROUND already.
Please do MEN AT WORK 2: WORKIN’ THE STREETS WITH THE BIMBOS already.
Or just retire and save us all the grief.
I’d actually watch a MEN AT WORK 2. BRING BACK EMILIO ESTEVEZ!!
Anyone want to guess the ratings for the 1-hour 2011 season premier of TAHM this September? I have no doubt, it’s happening – with a 2012-2013 season added to make up for the 10 episodes lost (2 last year and 8 this season). CBS & WB will milk it.
Sheen’s WINNING!! spree is the best thing that happened to TAHM. That show was going down the toilet. Why do you think they decided to bring it back? You can’t buy this type of publicity!!
Two and a half men: Now with extra WINNING!!
The earthquake/tsunami did to him what 9/11 did to the ridiculous obsession with shark attacks back in 2001 – made people focus on real news, not cable driven madness.
Now if only Michael Lohan and Snooki would disappear…
I second this!
Unfortunately Lohan and Snooki aren’t going anywhere. The dumbing down of America must continue!!!
LOL. So either his fans and supporters are waking up and tired of him early, or he has the same fans and supporters that Jennifer Anniston has (talk about how supportive they are of them, but never shell out any money for a ticket to show their support)
So passé. Tsunami and radiation in. Sheen OUT.
Charlie who?
Karma, he’s made an ass of himself! What a complete jerk. Let’s just move on he is so yesterday. What a waste of everyone’s time.
Charlie overexposed himself and now the people just don’t care. Finally.
No rants plz because you all dont seem like the National Rview crowd. If you come in contact w/the latest newsstand edition read Rob Longs take on what Sheen is doing wrong – agrees w/Jameson and lays it out in a clear and sometimes funny/sometimes sad way. If Sheen wanted to win financially he made all the wrong moves.
Sheen doesnt have the business smarts or good sense to capitalize financially on this. At first I thought this was all staged for publicity but sadly I was wrong. The dude really is as dumb as he sounds; he’s not shamming. It makes for good entertainment though.
A winning game is 9 innings. Charlie is in the 10th inning. Game over. Take your bat and balls and go home. It’s amazing some of the public thought he was hitting the strike zone with wild pitches. Foul.
Poor Charlie had his moment in the bigs, now he’s heading to some traveling road show team that few will ever see or care about. Want to be mocked? Wear one of his T shirts in public, an absolute defination of LOSER which should be his other tattoo — on his forehead.
STFU…Sheen has Tiger Blood!! He should give us all a lesson in WINNING!! lol
I don’t think its that he’s “over” or whatever—its just that there’s a vast, vast difference between reading about his latest exploits on TMZ and paying $50+ to see him in person.
Oh, and scalpers losing a bunch of money? Good.
Gee, why wouldn’t folks in Detroit, Chicago, Houston, Columbus and elsewhere NOT want to shell out cash to listen to a guy who was being paid $1.8 million a week whine about how he was fucked over by “the man?” I mean, the “Meet & Greet Charlie” package goes for just $750, so I imagine they’re working up car pools to make sure EVERYONE can get there!
I should have noted, that $750 package including a ticket AND a chance to hang with Charlie is for ONE. So, nobody should be trying to slide two in for that price. I mean, it’s CHARLIE, man!
He’s been shafted!
Guess what geniuses? Charlie is still getting his full payday. Those scalpers and secondary sites still paid for those tickets. So even if the shows aren’t full they’re still sold out and Charlie gets his millions. This author is a dipshit.
I think you got it wrong. It says that there are tickets available and then it states separately that there are also tickets avaiable by secondary sellers at less than face value. This alone will almost guaranty that it doesn’t sell out when any idiot that wants a ticket can get it for less than the venue is charging
I really try hard to avoid hoping for people to fail but I have to admit that I hope Sheen fails big time. Even if by some miracle he sells out because of scalpers it still would be funny to see him performing in half empty venues, that might finally wake him out of his stupor. Plus I hate to see this sort of behavior rewarded
This behavior has always been rewarded and will continue to be rewarded. It’s one of the things that make the world go round. Look at Brittney Spears. She never had any talent from day 1 and continues to garner millions from her record company after the media has hypnotized the sheep into giving a fuck. This isn’t the last we’ll see of Sheen, even if his show flops.
So after 21 performances and traveling all around the country over multiple weeks he would earn $7 million? Whereas before he threw away a perfectly good overpaid gig, he could have earned that amount of money after barely 4 performances (not to mention the additional revenue he would have earned from residuals). Working five times as hard for the same amount of money? It’s simple math an elementary school student could figure out. And yes, the answer to the equation would indeed equal “losing.”
Charlie will bail on the tour after just a few dates. By then, the few “fans” in the crowd will be on him like flies on feces plus he won’t be able to function for long in public. Time to bring your rotten tomatoes and make him dance off the public stage.
Minus the ONE DOLLAR per ticket he offered to help in Japan, meanwhile Sandra Bullock gives a MILLION DOLLARS of her own money (meaning not linked to future ticket sales like Chucky) and you would have got whiplash how fast that was in, then back out of, the news.
Meanwhile Sheen plays his act? lifestyle? before the world like a drunk puking up his last binge and gets more attention as a bad role model than a compassionate one got for her good actions…
oh, he’ll be fine.
If by fine you mean dead in two years, then yeah, I guess.
Duh, winning!
Just saw tickets to Charlie’s show on Groupon
Winning!
hope sheen will shine again,,
Next.
Even if most tickets sell, which wont happen, by the time the actual events come round I expect most people with tickets will be so over it all themselves by then that they wont bother going.
I wonder if Charlie will still feel ‘on top of the world’ ranting to an empty auditorium?
The report of low ticket sales can’t be entirely true – they added a SECOND show in Toronto! And about the poor ‘secondary sellers’, any bath those cretinous vultures take is a victory for the rest of us.
Gosh who on earth would want to sit for 70 minutes and listen to him. And pay money for it.. It’s the big difference when you sit at home by your computer and watch his 10 minutes crazy interview and laugh at the fact how delusional Sheen is. And when you get tired you just switch it off. And it’s completely different when you have to sit for 70 minutes without break. And you can’t walk out.
That’s why those Sheen’s long live shows on Internet have failed. Because no one want’s to listen to Charlie Sheen more then 10 minutes. I watched it for few minutes and then got bored and turned it off. The same will happen with his stage shows. People will just walk off or will not come at all.
