It is said to have lasted only a minute before all tickets were gone: Die Toten Hosen are giving a benefit concert in Düsseldorf on February 24th.
The Toten Hosen benefit concert for the earthquake victims in Turkey and Syria sold out within 60 seconds. 10,500 tickets were sold out in one minute, the band announced via Instagram and Facebook.
On February 24, the punk rockers want to collect as much money as possible for the crisis region with the concert in Düsseldorf in order to alleviate the consequences of the catastrophe. The Donots and Thees Uhlmann have pledged their support.
All proceeds after deducting production costs go to the Red Cross, Doctors Without Borders and Medico International. All participating musicians waive a fee. The city of Düsseldorf made the hall available for the concert free of charge. The tickets cost 75 euros. (dpa)
