U2 Tickets Sell Out Within Hour

POSTED: 1:51 pm HST January 15, 2006

Tickets for U2's concert at Aloha Stadium went on sale Saturday and sold out within an hour.

Aloha Stadium spokesman Patrick Leonard said it was the fastest-selling concert in stadium history.

The Michael Jackson concert in 1997 sold out in four hours.

U2 will perform in Honolulu on April 8 as part of its Vertigo Tour. It's the band's first Hawaii performance in two decades.

Some fans slept at Aloha Stadium to get the best seats. Tickets ranged from $50 to $165.

There might be good news for those who didn't get a ticket. The concert's promoter, Clearwater Entertainment, said it will announce either Monday or Tuesday the possibility of a second concert date.
