they barely filled DAR last year...it sold out, but after weeks.

and artic monkeys dont have much additional pull, anyone who wants to see them, most likely would have seen black keys anyways.

Love The Black Keys, but can they really fill Verizon?

Last album sold almost a million and had a number 1 Billboard single.  They won three Grammys.  New album is number 1 preorder on Amazon.

All that said, I still think they'll have trouble selling out Verizon.

Are you serious!? How the hell are they playing Verizon Center!? Patriot Center I could see, but Verizon!? That's fucking huge.... I hope they get a decent turn out. Excited to hear their new album. Still haven't heard the sample clips they dropped a couple days ago. I'll be there, I've missed The Black Keys for the past 4 years. I need to see them before they play FedEx Field next year.

The new album is really good. Been listening to it for a lil under a week now and think it could be better than brothers. Much more of a concise effort. Thrilled to get a chance to finally see them. (Had to give up my freefest tickets this year.)

Seen the monkeys twice since May. Easily one of the greatest live acts out there right now. Turner has really come into his own as a frontman.

Is there any truth to this $5 ticket theory? I have never heard of anything like this and would love to beat the money-grubbing ticket distributors for once.

Verizon Center holds I'm guessing holds at least 15k, maybe more. No way they're selling that many tickets at $54 a pop.

They'll be back at the club in a few years is my guess.

$54 with fees?!?!?

I'd really, really like to see this but mostly for Arctic Monkeys (who I seem to have no luck catching) and anywhere but Verizon.  Beggars (me) can't be choosy, though.

I saw Arctic Monkeys last when they were supporting "Humbug" And it was their best show. Saw them supporting WTSIATWIN and they were good, and stayed good for FWN, but their Humbug show was AMAZING! The Keys played on my 21st birthday and it was sold out at 930 :( and that's been the story ever since then. Always so sad when they come through cuz I just always know I'll miss them. Fingers crossed for this!

Pure speculation on prices, but they won't be James Ford $12 tickets, that's for sure.
