If Beyonce and her camp needed any indication that her ship has sailed — they got it when she walked out on stage in Edmonton, Canada last night — and heard only crickets.
It seems they couldn’t give the tickets away!
From ONTD:

When it comes to Beyonce, Edmontonians should perhaps consider themselves very lucky.
Lucky that the “bootylicious” superstar even decided to grace an Edmonton stage again after her last turn at Rexall Place in 2007 only drew a crowd of 7,800 people, but even luckier that Beyonce would actually launch her brand new tour supporting her latest album, I Am … Sasha Fierce, in the City of Champions.
Whether it was a momentous occasion or just an opportunity to test out the show and work out the kinks in front of a “modest” audience — because, once again, only 8,000 fans turned out — will be left for those that attended to decide.
If Beyonce’s first outing on her I Am … tour was no major disappointment, it was still a somewhat muddled affair, one that didn’t really clear up where the line between Beyonce and her supposed “alter ego” Sasha Fierce is drawn.
