Genesis enters the Overall Top Events chart at the number nine position and the Top Concerts chart at the number five position. Sales are softer than expected due to rival group The Police hitting the market first, as well as the lack of promotion before the onsale.

With “Spamalot” moving into the number four position and “Le Rêve” fighting its way back to the number five spot, the Wynn becomes the second hotel to have two shows in the Vegas Top Ten. It joins Caesar’s Palace, home to chart-toppers Céline Dion and Elton John.
