I'm not so sure on that, If they broke 200 on the weekend in some spots I would be very surprised. Just trying to be realistic, there were less than 300 at the two Swedish dates on the Strato/Ama EU tour... That's their hometown too!
To be fair, the Swedish live music scene is really weird. Alot of bands don't do all that well in Sweden, even many "local" bands like Dark Tranquillity play to probably half the amount of people at home in Gothenburg as they'd play in a major German city (not counting a big festival like Metaltown - we're just talking club gigs here). There are few exceptions like In Flames, but yeah, you'd be surprised how small that scene is compared to Finland or Germany.
