BIGBANG 2015 WORLD TOUR [MADE]IN SINGAPORE
South Korean pop royalty BigBang are back with, well, a bang. The five lads have sold out both nights of their concert here this weekend, but don't fret, the organisers have released extra seats for sale. These seats are called "audio seats", which means fans will not be able to see much of the live action. Still, it is better than just buying a CD because fans would be breathing the same air as their idols.
WHERE: Singapore Indoor Stadium MRT: Stadium WHEN: Tomorrow & Sun, 6pm ADMISSION: $128 & $88 from Sports Hub Tix (go to www.sportshub.com.sg or call 3158-7888), Sports Hub Box Office & SingPost outlets
