Brandy and Monica’s arena tour is in jeopardy of being canceled due to slow ticket sales. TicketMaster still has tons of tickets on sale.
R&B icons Brandy and Monica confirmed their first-ever co-headlining tour together back in June. The tour features opening artists Kelly Rowland and Muni Long.
The songbirds recorded a video pleading with their fans to buy tickets or their tour will be canceled.
The video shows the pair relaxing on a sofa, apparently exhausted from rehearsing for the upcoming tour.
“I don’t know what y’all want from us,” Monica said. “We tied,” Brandy added. “We tied,” Monica agreed.
Brandy said, “Uh! Sick of singing ‘The Boy Is Mine!'”
“Mo added, “Y’all better get them damn tickets.”
“Yes,” said Brandy, “get the tickets!”
Their 24-city arena tour kicks off on Oct. 16 in Cincinnati, Ohio and concludes on Dec. 7 in Houston, Texas.
Only State Farm Arena in Atlanta has sold more tickets, but there are plenty of seats left.
Most of the tickets for the kickoff concert in Cincinnati are still available. The problem seems to be the ticket prices.
The seating map for the Heritage Bank Center in Cincinnati shows tickets in front of the stage selling for over $400.
97 tickets are still up for grabs in front of the stage. Ticket prices in front of the stage range from $470 to $205.50.
59 tickets are still available in front of the stage at Atlanta’s State Farm Arena. But the prices range from $754.35 to $569.05. Fans ask who can afford to pay prices like that in today’s economy?
Fans were amused by the video. One person wrote: “Seeing yall laid up and chilling like sisters makes me smile so bad. All I ever wanted.”
Another person wrote: “We want yall to drop them prices a lil. We gave all the coins to Chris [Brown].”
A third person commented: “I got my ticket onna floor free.”
