SNSD’s first solo concert sold out in three minutes

[wrongbyright.livejournal.com]

Girl group Girls' Generation's concert tickets were sold out in a mere 3 minutes of its release.

Girls' Generation will hold their first solo concert on December 19th at 7PM at the Seoul Olympic Stadium in the Fencing arena. On the 19th at 8 o'clock, the tickets were open for buying through Gmarket. Being their first live concert since their debut, the fans were reluctant enough to buy all the tickets within 3 minutes, setting a new record.

The people who weren't able to buy a ticket expressed their sorrows by saying "Only late by a few seconds but it displays 'Sold Out'" "I guess I have to get a fake ticket..."

Girls' Generation will kick off their performance on December 19th and 20th in Seoul, and their tour will spread to Shanghai, Bangkok etc. Girls' Generation will perform hit songs 'Gee' and 'Tell Me Your Wish (Genie)' and their new and dazzling performances are being anticipated.

seriously.

there's an article about it already on how the uncle fans are usually the ones who support them by buying albums, sending some healthy drinks or wtvr, donating, etc. they don't usually go to their performances.
although it'll be cool if families also go to their concerts (:

there was this post on omona back in june/july where they polled people from teens to 60 on their favourite musicians. Soshi and BB came up top until it reached the 60+years demographic, I think.

SM is setting aside a portion of the tickets for parents with 2+ children ie. families.
whaaaaat. It'd be so cool to see entire families there.
