It seems bad planning/promoting/whatever to set up a tour with two artists with such vastly different audiences (tho this happens all the time, I suppose). I'm surprised RDJ agreed to do it, given his dislike of performing live (or so I've read). Perhaps there were contractual obligations he had to fulfill.
