BBC News reports: An estimated 20 million people rushed to register for tickets to see LED ZEPPELIN as soon as the band announced their reunion, promoters have said.
The remaining members of the legendary rock group will play a one-off show at the 20,000-capacity O2 arena in London on 26 November, they said on Wednesday.
The concert's web site has struggled to cope with demand, and organizers have asked fans to be patient.
Registration for the £125 tickets closes at midday BST on Monday.
Tickets for the show will be allocated by public ballot — a move promoter Harvey Goldsmith hopes will deter touts.
"We just hope and pray that those people who get a ticket in a ballot are just going to act accordingly," he said.
Goldsmith also warned fans who turned to Internet auction sites like eBay or other unauthorized sources that they would have their tickets cancelled.
"They might have paid the money but they ain't going to get the ticket," he said.
