Todays concert ticket Presale...
Posted Thu, Feb 24, 2005 - 11:07pm ET | Tour
The Presale for 10 of the cities on the April 2005 solo Original Sinsuality Tour took place today at toriamos.tickets.musictoday.com as expected. From the volume of email I am getting, I can tell you that many people failed to get tickets. Most of the time they were given a message that said "At this moment, there are not enough tickets to fill your request." Others seemed to sell out in a matter of minutes. I do have confirmation that *some* people DID get tickets. Some of the seats were great and others were not. My understanding is that there were a very small number of tickets available and therefore only a small number of fans were able to get them. (So if you did not get tickets today, please know that you were not alone. I can tell you that I failed to gets Tickets myself...) Toriamos.com did warn that the number would be very limited, and I guess they were not kidding. When tickets go on sale this weekend at Ticketmaster.com, everyone else should be able to get tickets! The Presale did not take place for the two Florida shows, as well as Boston and Washington D.C. Since those do not go on sale through Ticketmaster until the first weekend in March, I think it is possible those will go on presale next week.
I have updated the Dent's Original Sinsuality Tour Schedule Page.
