Davidson said that 6,100 tickets sold in a 2-hour presale held today, totaling about $650,000.
The sale was such a hit, it was extended by one day. Now, more than 10,000 tickets have already been sold.
The online presale was such a hit, organizers have pushed up the date to start selling regular tickets on the website, and that start date is tomorrow.
