After success in Chicago, Charlie Sheen one man show tickets rise in NYC

Charlie Sheen's Violent Torpedo of Truth/Defeat is Not an Option tour definitely got off to a rocky start as the former Two and a Half Men star was booed off stage in Detroit.

Things looked up when he moved on to his second stop in Chicago where the troubled actor received a standing ovation.

After the unfortunate performance in Detroit tickets for his show at Radio City Music Hall dropped to $24 on StubHub.com Monday morning, according to a report by The Hollywood Reporter.

Within 24 hours, though, ticket prices bounced back up to $40 and $42 for his New York City shows.

According to The Hollywood Reporter there are a good number of seats left. There are 1,127 tickets left for $42 and 1,587 for tickets priced at $40.

This is still quite a low cost considering their initial face value was $126.

Sheen will perform Tuesday night in Cleveland, Ohio and then on Wednesday in Columbus. He will perform in New York City on Friday and Sunday.

There's a couple things here I've got to ... work out, Sheen told E! News. I don't know if I start the show alone and it turns into this [a Q&A format] or I just stay with this 'cause it's ... working and we'll... return to it if I don't.
