The Andrea Bocelli Concert

Andrea Bocelli will be releasing his fourteenth studio album on the 29th of January 2013, entitled "Passione". The Italian tenor will be collaborating with artists such as Jennifer Lopez, and Nelly Furtado as well as Edith Piaf on romantic duets. The album will be a collection of Mediterranean love songs similar to his 2006 album Amore, which was produced by the same Grammy Award winning producer David Foster. Bocelli is famous for his amazing voice and the ability to sing in many languages on his albums and concerts. On his latest album Passione, Bocelli sings in six languages, Italian, English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, and Neapolitan, giving the album variety in songs. It will also feature a 63-piece orchestra along with his band, playing a mix of Cuban, Brazilian, and Portuguese rhythms to add to the Mediterranean feel.

If you have been to an Andrea Bocelli concert you will already know some of his most famous songs and covers. The forthcoming album will also feature some classics covered by Bocelli in addition to new songs that the fans will love. It will also include a virtual duet of "La Vie en rose" with the late French singer Edith Piaf. Passione is essentially the second volume of the album Amore, so if you loved it you will love this. Amore featured timeless Mediterranean works just like Passione with songs such as "Love Me Tender".


Andrea Bocelli is an iconic figure in music with a successful career since he was discovered in 1992 and his début album Il Mare Calmo della Sera in 1994. He has countless achievements and is still breaking records to this day. An Andrea Bocelli concert is guaranteed to be sold out in a matter of hours as they are in high demand and he often performs smaller intimate concerts throughout Italy. The Italian tenor is the most successful classical solo artist as he is one of the best-selling artists in all music not just classical music, with more than 80 million albums sold worldwide. He has also successfully crossed over classical music into mainstream music charts and created many classical music lovers through his songs and international appeal.


There are many concerts over the next few months for the release of Bocelli's new album and it would be a shame to miss out on an Andrea Bocelli concert as they are an unforgettable experience and definitely a night to remember. There are concerts throughout Europe, mainly in Italy. Although he will also be doing a few shows across the US in Colorado and California.

Getting Last Minute Concert Tickets - Great Service But Not Always Cheap

Concerts are great forms of live entertainment, and they may only have an audience of five hundred or fifty thousand, depending on the artist and the venue. In fact, this is one of the largest of the entertainment industries, since in 2011, over fifty million tickets were sold. The average cost was somewhere between sixty and seventy dollars, which is actually a pretty fair estimate of what most people can expect to pay. However, remember that when it comes to last minute concert tickets, you may have to pay a much heftier price. Not only are there fewer tickets available, but the desire for them is higher, and thus the cost is higher too.

While there are many large brokers where you can get last minute concert tickets, you can also go online and find individuals who are willing to sell or trade their entry stubs, simply because they cannot or will not be attending the event. This gives others an opportunity to find a way to go, even right before showtime. There are many smaller vendors who specialize in sales of this type, but beware - it could cost you plenty. The better the seat, the higher the price, and if the artist is in high demand, the fee goes up even more. For a front row seat at a show where a popular artist is being featured could cost several hundred dollars apiece. Add to that the price of buying last minute concert tickets, and you are looking at going broke pretty easily.


However, there are benefits to buying last minute concert tickets that might surprise you. Sometimes you can get an extra stub thrown in for good measure, if the merchant has no use for an extra and is just glad to get rid of them. Sometimes you can also get an upgrade on seats as well, for no fee or a small fee. Depending on where you buy, however, the risks might be greater than the benefits. For example, while some stubs can simply be printed off at home after you have purchased them, others will have to be mailed and this could ruin your evening if they don't come in time. Only buy last minute concert tickets from someone who guarantees that they will arrive in time, and never buy from someone with a poor rating.


When it comes to buying last minute concert tickets online, you really need to know who you are dealing with in order to minimize your risks. If possible, be sure to use a secure payment method like Paypal, or simply have a debit card that is only used specifically for online transactions. Also, never give up if you can't seem to find the right seats, as some may not be listed on the main page of a vendor but are easily found elsewhere on the web page. Be sure to prepare for service charges, larger shipping costs and even processing fees when you order last minute tickets online.

Important Things to Consider When Selling Your Concert Tickets Online

If you or your loved ones can't use the concert tickets you purchased, why not sell them and give others the opportunity to enjoy the event? By selling your tickets you not only make a profit, but you also make someone else happy. To maximize your time and audience reach, however, it is best to sell the stuff online. You almost do not have leave home to complete the transaction, and you get to cover a much a larger geographic area at a very short time.
Online services allot a web page to advertise and list down your tickets, complete with product description and payment methods. You get to choose whether to mail or e-mail your tickets in many websites; it's up to you how want it done.
If you've decided to sell your spare concert tickets online, please consider the following guidelines before you fully set out on putting up an ad:
Honesty is the best policy. Decide to be honest, particularly when providing details about your ticket. If your ticket is for a seat in a far corner of the hall, indicate so in your advertisement. Don't give false information or half truths just to make a sale. If a customer complains, particularly if you're selling through a broker, you might get penalized heavily and marked with a bad record. And, of course, there's the proverbial "what goes around comes around" pitch...
Price. Set your price about 10 to 20% lower than the face value. Prepare yourself for some haggling, however, particularly when you're close to the concert date or when there are many other tickets to similar seats being sold. Keep in mind that when you bought the tickets you incurred a loss, so by reselling them actually you gain a profit.
Have a PayPal account ready before you start advertising too.
Who to sell with. There are many options available for selling your tickets:
Use your accounts in social media websites such as Facebook to quickly get the word out to your friends and family. Such websites make for managing the entire selling process and answering buyer queries fairly easy. You might want to make a firm stand on your prices, since these are your loved ones you are dealing with. Loved ones can be the worst (or best, depending on how you look at it) hagglers.
eBay is one of the best ways to sell your tickets if you are looking to make a fairly large profit. You can choose to auction off your tickets or have it sold immediately. If you have premium seating tickets, you can go ahead and put it up for auction. However, it is best to sell at the first offer if yours are tickets to seats that are similar to many others going around.
Online classified ads. There are many online classified ads where you can advertise for free. Don't expect to get a large markup in this method, but it is efficient enough when it comes to audience reach. Some of the more popular online classified ads are Oodles, Craigslist and USFreeAds.
Ticket brokers. Ticket brokers can be your most efficient choice because they can offer the widest range of services, including advertising and selling. Some of the top-rated brokers are Ticketmaster, Stubhub, and Vivid Seats. Selling fees, commissions and other charges and services differ between companies, and you'll have to ask around to find the ones that best suit your need. You may also find some of their policies overbearing. To understand them better, put yourselves in their clients' shoes. Clients want to be protected and assured that they're getting their money's worth. Ticket brokers' policies are designed to do just those (well, ideally they should).
Mode of delivery. You can choose to ship your tickets, will-call them or send them via e-mail, depending on the website's policies. Check with them to see if they offer what you want-some do not allow e-mailing of e-tickets nor will-calls.

Where to Find Inexpensive Concert Tickets

AppId is over the quota
AppId is over the quota

A common problem I have when looking for concert tickets are the prices. It's a well known fact that popular artists cost more. The following information is going to be ways to help you avoid having to pay high prices for tickets while still being able to enjoy the show.

The first thing you have to do is look early. This is especially true in the summertime. This is primo concert season and if you want to get a good price sometimes buying ahead is the best way to go. Now, this is not always the case, sometimes waiting can have its benefits as well and I will discuss that option further down the road.

The next suggestion I have is buy together as a group. Sometimes, depending on the venue or the artist you can get a discounted rate for groups. Even if the group has to be twenty people, you can use social media like Facebook or the artists fan page to fins others who are planning on going the same night. Most people would jump at the chance for the discounted rates. 'I was also told that certain country festivals like Country Thunder give discounts if it is your second year going and you have a group.

Some of the best ways to buy tickets are to use sites that might not be so well known. I previously bought Eric Church tickets from inseats.com. The tickets are at discounted prices because they come from people who had previously bought tickets and then, for whatever reason could no longer go to the concert and wanted to sell them back. My concert ended up being cancelled so I was worried I was out the money. I had to call the customer service line and after answering a few simple questions about myself and my credit card I was told I would get my money back.

Justbuytickets.com is easier to navigate with a ton of options not just for concerts, but for other shows as well. One of the things I really liked about it is that you can search by genre. If you sign up for the email you can also get notifications of upcoming events in your area divided by them. One thing to note is that on sites like these the ticket prices are reduced as it gets closer to the event. That being said, it becomes a gamble on how long you think you can wait before someone else gets the tickets.

If you want to break it down to the simplest form. The best thing you can do to not have a problem with high ticket prices is invest time. You have to look early and shop around. This way, even if you don't get the price you want, you know you couldn't do any better. If you shop around and invest the time early enough you won't be wondering "what if."
