Tickets for British singing star Adele's shows in Canadian cities sold out within minutes on Thursday morning.
The Vancouver shows sold out in less than 20 minutes. Fans were left watching the digital wheel of doom as they waited to see if they could snag seats for the Rogers Arena live dates July 20 and 21.
Adele will play Montreal on Sept. 30 and Oct. 1 and Toronto on Oct. 3, 4, 6 and 7.
