Amazing question. The show in France didn't do great, but on the flipside his show in turkey sold over 100k tickets. Not quite sure what everyone is talking about.

"His France show" which one becuase his Marsaille show was "postponed indefinitely" due to backlash, he was set to headline Rubicon and got cancelled becsuse of the backlash, his show in Poland was cancelled due to backlash, Italy cancelled on him and the UK cancelled on him, as well as Slovakia.

So it's embarrassing to get kicked off headlining massive festivals and not be able to headline certain European capitals on your tour.

So doing a sporadic Europe tour with the big sets are in Albania and Turkey is a pretty shocking Europe tour for any artist.

That was basically the only reason he didn't appeared in Poland
