Miku is misspelled in the flash mob portion of the article. Where was it held anyway? Couldn't find anything on where it took place.

I knew it'd be in high demand but I'm not sure I actually want to go. Wonder how much I can sell my ticket for... Betting I could make a pretty decent profit off that $15 investment should I choose to sit it out.

There in REAL high demand. I'm pretty sure you can sell a minimum 4x the amount you bought it for right now.

It was to be expected that this concert would sell out -- I mean, there are sure to be a lot of people flying in from Japan to see this one on top of regular attendees. Even I was considering going until my empty wallet reached up and slapped me. I hope they can open up some more seats for all those desperate fans!

Looks like New York to me. Also, the original article talks about Union Square.

It took place at Union Square in Manhattan, New York if you're referring to the people dancing outside in the city.

The flash mob was great, though I wish I could have been there to see the looks on passerby's faces upon hearing Miku's voice. Laughing

I'm kind of surprised about the sell out concert, but then again this is Miku and people are bound to be flying in from overseas to see it. Good thing I already have my ticket. Cool

Ugh...I really wish I could go. I'm crossing my fingers one day they bring this to the East Coast, or a least put it on Blu-Ray like the first concert.

I don't think I'll ever understand the appeal of this thingy, but I guess it's not the first thing I've said that about.

I was so disappointed when I couldn't buy a ticket to see Miku in concert. I really hope that they find a way to sell more tickets because I would buy one in a heartbeat.

Well, I didn't expect anything different. I hope they have one next year I guess.

The cowards dumped out just before that infamous SCREAM! I could see the "WTF!"s popping up all over the area from the bystanders and people walking by. Also it looked like they needed to rehearse that some more, as too many were dreadfully out of time and step. Razz

I wouldn't doubt you if you got $1500 for it now. Wink

I can's see how they can get away with selling more tickets for a venue that is already over sold as it is. That's taking some really serious risks of people getting crushed to death should something spook them like smoke, or a fire. I bet CFM and Toyota are kicking themselve for not getting a bigger venue. Wink

She's Miku. She could play two venues at once. Smile
