(PRWEB) February 6, 2005 -- Some cities had up to 4 shows but tickets still sold out in minutes. David Boitano CEO of Ticketfinder.com states Even we were taken back by the huge demand and speed at which the tickets were sold". U2 has stated that the main floor will be all general admission standing and sold at a face value of $49.75 which was the lowest price ticket. First elevation tickets in most cities carried a face value of $165.00 with the upper level seats at $90.00 each.
