The tour was scheduled to begin on 19 October at River Plate Stadium in Buenos Aires, and originally only two concerts were scheduled as well as performances in several Latin American countries. However, from the time the tickets went on sale it became apparent that it wouldn't be enough, and that the band was faced with a huge continent-wide cultural event. Over 90,000 tickets were sold in only 24 hours. The band quickly added another show to the schedule, which sold out in 3 days, so 2 more dates were added.
