Metro Weekly

Tickets on sale Saturday for that lollipop quintet, One Direction

One Direction

One Direction, the British boy band — and not the California pop group, suing Simon Cowell and co. for stealing their already established name — tours in support of its totally unjustified overnight success. There’s just no accounting for taste, no matter how beautiful a particular fan may be. Tickets on sale Saturday, April 21, at 10 a.m. for June 23 show at Verizon Center, 601 F St. NW. Call 202-628-3200 or visit verizoncenter.com.
