Tickets to be rereleased for Joel, John concert

WASHINGTON (AP) — Concert planners are trying to make up for technical glitches that prevented many fans from purchasing tickets last weekend for a show featuring Billy Joel and Elton John at Nationals Park.

On Thursday, the Washington Nationals announced they will release additional seats for the July 11 concert on Monday at 10 a.m. through http://www.tickets.com.

Ticket prices for the show range from about $57 to $182. Officials say they expect the ballpark to hold more than 40,000 people for the concert.

This will be the first ever concert at Nationals Park, and the Nationals say they hope to make it a prime summer concert venue. The show is part of the artists’ Face 2 Face tour.
