In the original plans, the tour was expected to end in December in Bolivia and afterwards the tour was expected to start another tour in relation to their 10th anniversary in music in early 2009. However, the concerts in Bolivia were pushed back to January 2009 and those plans were scrapped. [4]

[5] The New York Times gave a positive review to their concert at New York's Madison Square Garden and titled the article "Two Romeos Romance the World to an Adrenalized Reggaetón Beat". Also, it was reported that the concert was sold out. [6]
