“Glee tickets” has been one of the most popular ticket-search terms used on FanSnap since the fictional kids from McKinley High sang at the World Series. In the last few days, FanSnap has been abuzz with searches for “Conan O’Brien tickets” — since the former Tonight Show host began Twittering about taking his show on the road. There are currently hundreds, and in some cases, thousands of Glee Live tickets and Conan O’Brien tour tickets can currently be found with FanSnap.
That got us to thinking.
Both are less traditional tours birthed from television shows, albeit under very different circumstances. One is a brand new show with lots of buzz and and seemingly endless numbers of fans that can’t get enough of their singing. The other one of the longest running shows on television with a very public shake up.
Which tour will be more popular?
Both tours will be in New York within a few days of each other. Glee is performing three shows at Radio City Music Hall on May 28 and 29. Conan O’Brien will be performing at Radio City on June 1. There are three Glee Live! events, at Radio City in two days. Conan has one. Here’s how it breaks down.
Glee Live in New York

Average price for a ticket = $220.
Conan O’Brien in New York
1,000 Conan O’Brien tickets available
