Adele has officially added two dates for her tour for latest album, 25, and both are slated to occur in Los Angeles.
Billboard reports that both dates will be at the Los Angeles Staples Center on Aug. 20-21 and join her over 100 dates that are spanning across the world. The first date kicked off in Belfast. Tickets for both of the added performances will be going on sale this upcoming Friday, July 29.
Adele’s tour tickets are the priciest of the summer and average $911 to see the singer perform live. The most expensive dates are scheduled to be her stops in New York City, Los Angeles and Austin, where resale tickets are averaging over $1,000. Her stop at The Frank Erwin Center in Austin currently averages $1,986 on the secondary market and the cheapest ticket is $500. Her Sept. 23 stop at MSG averages $1,554, with the cheapest ticket being $426.
In other Adele news, not everyone is a fan of the singer (or her pricey concert tickets) as was revealed in an interview with The Daily Star by David Bowie’s former producer Tony Visconti.
“You turn the radio on and it’s fluff, you are listening to 90% computerized voices. We know Adele has a great voice but it’s even questionable if that is actually her voice or how much it has been manipulated. We don’t know.”
The original story was published on June 8 and spread like wildfire, with Adele herself even speaking out against it at one of her concerts.
“I’m sorry that what I said in regards to what’s being played on the radio was misconstrued yet I cannot apologize for something being taken the wrong way,” Visconti said in a statement to Billboard. “If Adele has taken my comments as offensive that was certainly not my intent. Adele has a great voice and it brings pleasure to millions.”
