Nashville, TN (Tim McGraw Official Website) - Fast sellouts and overwhelming demand marked a first day on-sale frenzy that served to punctuate and solidify the concert event that is
Tim McGraw and Faith Hill's "Soul2Soul II" Tour. Tickets went on-sale this past Saturday, for eight performances, including the tour's opening concert on April 21st in Columbus, Ohio and fans gobbled up tickets via box office,
Internet and phone, at an even faster pace then for the couple's first ground-breaking concert tour six years ago. Promoters reacted quickly as concerts were added in Columbus, Ohio on April 22nd and Boston, Massachusetts on June 26th in an effort to meet the demand. Previously announced performances in Columbus and Boston, as well as performances in Dallas and Buffalo were sold-out within hours.
For many, the brisk sales come as no surprise for two artists, who just this past week added another Grammy Award to their trophy case (Best Country Vocal Collaboration) their seventh. This to go along with the sale of more than 60 million albums, 17 American Music Awards, 22 Country Music Association Awards, 16 Academy of Country Music Awards, 11 No 1 albums and more than 35 No 1 singles.
Tickets for performances in State College, Pennsylvania and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania go on-sale to the general public on Friday, February 17th and Saturday, February 18th respectively. Further performances in Chicago, Birmingham, Philadelphia, Hershey, New York, Cincinnati, Denver, Portland, Seattle and Phoenix and Indianapolis are slated to go on-sale next.
