Are they serious? French electro-rockers Justice have booked themselves in for a 20,000 capacity gig in New York this March.
We knew Justice were popular…but U2 level popular? Bruce Springsteen level popular? Apparently the twosome have only sold 40,000 albums in the US so far and therefore playing the cavernous Madison Square Garden would seem like a slightly mental idea. But maybe it’s not so illogical—take a look at their Internet stats: 5.5 million hits on YouTube for ‘D.A.N.C.E’, 4.1 million hits on Justice’s MySpace—that’s a lot of potential bums on seats. If you’re sick of Stateside Justice gigs selling out, you’re bound to have more luck with this. Check it early for presale tickets—details below. Support reportedly comes from Billy Joel, Barbara Striesand and Ricky Martin Chromeo, Busy P and Fancy.
