Hannah Montana concert tickets sold out in 10 minutes
 
Within 10 minutes after Hannah Montana concert tickets went on sale at CenturyTel Center, they were sold out

I tried to get tickets for my 9 year old. By the time I blinked, they were all gone. I had no idea it was that fast! 10 minutes? Jeez that's more than a 1000 tickets per minute.

Yes this is one of those incidents where the internet might not be such a good thing! Whatever happened to the good ole days where you camped out on the sidewalk for tickets?? It builds character and greater appreciation for the concert once it finally gets here!(Now I realize the kids couldn't camp out but the parents sure as heck could've as they do for Xbox 360s and such.):peace:

We used to get our concert tickets at Stan's as I recall... I'm not sure I even want to go to a concert that sells out in 10 minutes....That might not be safe.

This has happened before here at the CTC and the day of the show they usually release a few more tickets. You should run by the afternoon of the show and check. Sometimes they announce it on the radio other times they don't.
One more suggestion I'd wear earplugs if you get in. 12000 little girls screaming at the same time plays havoc on the ears! Good luck!:)

Rhertz....show how much you love her. Go to www.ticketsnow.com and buy them. You'll have to pay more for them but I bet you can get her some great seats!!!!

Thank you for the lead Tbelle. I don't know if I can afford these prices but I will try. Daddy needs more love around the house.

Consider your self lucky that they did sell out :laugh:

I just went on that site www.ticketsnow.com. Someone would have to be off their rocker to buy those tickets. At regular price the tickets were starting at $25, but at ticketsnow are starting at $188 up to $2000. I can see paying a little more but get real. The $188 tickets were right up in the tip top section. If you buy these tickets let me know and I will feel sorry for you.

I must admit I've paid dumb amounts for scalped tickets before but at least the seats were really good!:D Oh and it wasn't for a kiddie show either!:laugh:;)

vixweb 09-19-2007 07:48 PM

MOST of my experiences with scalpers have been great! But I have been scammed a time or two:o Since it is illegal to scalp in this state, how is that site able to charge so much? Did they buy up alot of tickets? Thats what I wanna know!

Who the HELL is "Hannah Montana"? Thats about the most bogus name I ever heard of. Might be a good name for a porn star. Is she a porn star?

I don't know but you can go to centurytelcenter.com and view the ticket prices that were $26 to$56. Then go to ticketsnow.com and their ticket prices are $188 to $2354 a Ticket. To me that is a very big mark up. Someone would have to be crazy to pay that kind of prices.

Al, she is a child star that has her own show on disney channel. She is very popular with the younger crowd. She is also the daughter of Billy Ray Cyrus. You know the Achy Breaky Heart singer. But she is a good singer. Her real name is Miley Cyrus.
