KUALA LUMPUR - Tickets for the second day of the genKRU concert were sold out within 45 minutes of going on sale online at 3pm yesterday.
The event organiser ICON Entertainment described the overwhelming support for the concert, scheduled for May 3 and 4 next year, as a phenomenon and a testament to the love and appreciation fans have for the legendary KRU trio who are staging the concert.
"We are deeply moved by this response. The first-day tickets (for May 3) sold out within an hour, while the second-day tickets were gone in just 45 minutes.
"It is now our responsibility to ensure that all genKRU fans who secured tickets for the first and second days will get maximum satisfaction on both days of the concert," said ICON Entertainment founder Iman Tang in a statement yesterday.
On Dec 20, tickets for the 1990s-themed concert sold out within an hour, prompting the organisers to announce Day 2 of the concert due to the popular demand.
The genKRU concert will see KRU members, Datuk Norman Abdul Halim, Datuk Yusry Abdul Halim and Edry Abdul Halim, reuniting after a hiatus of six years. The sibling group, known for hits like ‘Mengerti’, ‘Fanatik’, ‘Awas’, ‘Generasiku’ and ‘Terhangat di Pasaran’, also welcomes other artistes to join them on stage during their forthcoming concert to add to the excitement of their performances. - BERNAMA
