R. Kelly Cancels Show

Citing "inclement weather," R and B artist R. Kelly has canceled his show tomorrow night at the Target Center. Kelly, who is on a 45-city tour to support his Double Up album said the show will not be rescheduled.

“Inclement weather” cracks this native Minnesotan up, surely Kelly isn’t talking about 20 degrees and partly cloudy skies as inclement weather. This music fan wonders if soft ticket sales aren’t the real reason behind the cancellation. Kelly has a unique elaborate stage set-up that probably costs more to run than the number of tickets sold for his Target Center show. Or perhaps Kelly’s run in with the law and his mandatory court appearance is in conflict with his Target Center stop, either way there will be at least a few disappointed R&B music fans in the Twin Cities.

Trans Siberian Orchestra at Target Center

The Trans Siberian Orchestra will be at the Target Center this weekend for it’s largest ever holiday tour. Trans Siberian will play in more than 90 cities over a ten week span that started on November 1st.

The Xcel Energy Center hosted TSO last year, but this year the Target Center booked the hit show just in time for the holidays. In fact, the show was so popular at the Xcel last year that the Target Center decided to book two Trans Siberian shows this Saturday December 15th at 3pm and 8pm. There are still great seats left from local ticket brokers and twin cities music fans won’t want to miss this hit sound and light show. Buy your Trans Siberian Tickets today! Happy Holidays everyone! Enjoy the show!

Timberwolves Tickets

It has officially hit rock bottom for Minnesota Timberwolves Ticket demand. My friend and his family headed down to the Target Center last Tuesday for the Timberwolves versus Lakers game. He was able to buy Minnesota Timberwolves Tickets with a face value of $260/Ticket for $50/Ticket. The seats were in the VIP section and only four rows from the court. I was amazed to hear that a person could buy Lakers/Timberwolves Tickets for 1/5 of the face value. In years past, that was an untouchable Timberwolves Ticket.

I am sure that with their slow start, there will be plenty of bargains to be had the rest of the season. Hearing those prices, I think I am going to have to venture down to Target Center Minneapolis for a couple of games this winter. Let's face it, it is still an NBA game even though the Timberwolves are having a down year.

Foo Fighters at Target Center

The Foo Fighters just announced a 2/27 show at the Target Center. The Target Center Concert Tickets for the Foo Fighters show go onsale 12/1 at the Target center Box office as well as all Ticketmaster locations. If you get shut out on Saturday, don't be afraid to buy tickets online from Ticket King because I am sure that their prices won't be high.

Timberwolves Tickets

I talked to my buddy that dabbles in ticket scalping for the Minnesota Timberwolves games and it sounds like Minnesota Timberwolves Tickets could be had for pennies on the dollar outside the Target Center tonight. He sold two VIP Tickets with a face value of $260/Ticket for $50/Ticket at game time and he considered himself luck to get the sale. At those prices, it is probably worth venturing down to the Target Center for some NBA action this winter. The Timberwolves may stink bu that doesn't mean that the team they are playing also stinks. It might be to the point that it will cost you more to park than what it will cost to buy two Minnesota Timberwolves Tickets.

JingleBall 2007 at Target Center

101.3 KDWB will once again be hosting it’s annual Jingle Ball at the Target Center on Friday, December 7th, 2007 at 7:00 PM. The multiple artist show includes performances by Kanye West, Avril Lavigne, Timbaland featuring One Republic & Keri Hilson, Good Charlotte and Jordin Sparks. The Target Center will have a typical end stage set-up with all reserved seating. It’s an all ages show that is always popular with the KDWB listeners/crowd. Kanye West is pretty hot right now and so is Avril Lavigne so I expect this show to be popular at the Target Center. Buy Jingle Ball tickets early or if you are lucky you can win them from the radio station.

Target Center hosts Dane Cook and Timberwolves Basketball

The Target Center Schedule for November is filled with Timberwolves NBA games and comedian Dane Cook on Friday November 23rd (the day after Thanksgiving). The young Timberwolves team puts on a high energy show and Timberwolves Tickets are pretty cheap right now so if you have NBA fever, scoop up a pair and head out to the Target Center for an evening out.

Dane Cook should also be a good time during his rough around the edges tour. I just saw Dane in Steve Carrell’s new movie Dan in Real Life and I saw him on the Letterman show recently. Dane Cook is a funny guy, he’s no Steve Carell, but he is a funny and his human behavior jokes always crack me up. He is doing a center stage set-up at the Target Center and if you think you will need a good laugh after a crazy day of shopping, buy Dane Cook Tickets!
