BARCELONA (CelebrityAccess MediaWire) — Continuing the trend of sell-outs, newly re-formed rockers The Police have sold out all 55,000 tickets for their show at the Olympic Stadium in Barcelona in just a scant 9 hours. For the math-challenged amongst you, that breaks down to about 100 tickets per minute.
Ticket sales for the band's only Spain stop were conducted primarily over the Internet with prices ranging from $90-225 dollars US.
Part of the profits from the event will be donated to WaterAid, an NGO working to reduce the effects of poverty by improving water supply, sanitation and education in developing nations – CelebrityAccess Staff Writers
