Concert Tickets News

This is going to be big. Eminem and Jay-Z tickets are the hottest thing going. In fact, one Live Nation spokesperson said the mega-concert has brought the heaviest ticket demand they’ve ever experienced.

According to the Detroit Free Press, the Sept. 2 & 3 Eminem and Jay-Z shows have been months in the making. World-renowned lighting and scene designers were enlisted and specialists have been working 15-hour days, crafting stage renderings and configuring logistics.

The Detroit Eminem and Jay-Z concert is part of a two-city tour in which the superstar rappers are playing each other’s hometown baseball stadiums. The duo will perform at Yankee Stadium in New York on Sept. 13 & 14. So how does a production this big travel? 50+semitrailers will haul the set, lighting, etc. — more than the typical continental tour by the Rolling Stones or U2.

And a special treat for fans, Eminem will be backed by a live band. How about that for one of hip-hop’s greatest? This is definitely a show not to be missed. While Eminem and Jay-Z tickets are sold out at the box office, a quick search on FanSnap shows more than 1,200 tickets available for each Detroit show.

Check out the two artists on Letterman!

EMINEM has sold more than 80,000,000 albums worldwide and has won 11 Grammy Awards and an Academy Award. He was recently named Nielsen SoundScan Artist of the Decade, having sold more records than any other artist for the years 2000-2009. His new album, Recovery, will be released on June 21. “Not Afraid,” the first single off Recovery, soared to #1 on the iTunes chart and debuted at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, the first time a rap artist has accomplished the feat in 15 years.

While Justin Bieber tickets, Jack Johnson tickets and Trey Sonz tickets have been the hot sellers for 2010, next year could be a whole different story.

TicketMaster Chairman Irving Azoff, gave us a sneak peek at the artists who could be touring next year. Those who made the list – Kenny Chesney, Fleetwood Mac, Van Halen, Neil Diamond and Christina Aguilera. Talk about big names who should be filling arenas in 2011. Not to mention Lady Gaga, who already announced concert dates for the upcoming year.

David Lee Roth and the whole Van Halen crew were the focus of a recent Billboard.com story which fueled the rumor mill, stating, “The clearest signs that an album and tour are in the works for next year have emerged.” The band is supposedly in the studio working on an album. Once those tunes are released, they’ll hit the road.

This would be Van Halen’s first studio album since 1998. So will Van Halen tickets be hot sellers? If their 2008 reunion tour is any indication, the answer is a definite yes. The reunion tour was a massive success, grossing more than $93 million and close to one million in attendance from 74 shows, according to Billboard Boxscore.

Stay tuned right here for the latest on Van Halen tickets as well as all of 2011′s hottest tours.

After undergoing emergency back surgery three months ago and being forced to reschedule their entire North American tour, Bono has returned to the stage! The band is currently trekking through Europe hitting Spain, Greece, Italy, Switzerland, Belgium and more. Fans are raving about the shows saying Bono is bouncing around like his old self – no signs of back surgery. U2 ticket holders are loving the mix of their favorite songs, including  “Beautiful Day,” “Mysterious Ways,” and “I Still  Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For” which seem to make the set list of every show!

The band heads back the United States next spring and there are still plenty of U2 tickets available. In addition to the tunes they are currently playing, MTV.com is reporting U2 is hard at work on a new album – a “club-sounding album” – and that they hope to have it out in time for the North American tour. This of course is in addition to the tunes they have penned for the new Broadway musical, “Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark.”
