Before he possibly becomes somebody that the pop mainstream used to know, Belgium-born, Australia-based electro-pop crossover star Gotye is going to strike the iron while it's hot and hit Target Center on Aug. 26 with openers Missy Higgins and Jonti. Tickets go on sale June 8 at 10 a.m. for $47 and $37. Seats are being sold in the half-arena configuration, a k a U.S. Bank Theater at Target Center.

Gotye – real name: Wally De Backer -- easily sold out Epic nightclub in early April, a show that was quickly upsized from the Varsity Theater once his bouncy, obsessive breakup song "Somebody That I Used to Know" hit the top 10. The song went to No. 1 soon after the local date, once Fox TV's "Glee" crew rendered it, and then Gotye himself sang it with his duet partner Kimbra on "Saturday Night Live." Gotye's other singles, including "Eyes Wide Open" and "I Feel Better," have yet to gain much traction.

If he does wind up a one-hit wonder, at least Gotye didn't wait as long as Foster the People has taken after their one hit's peak to headline Target Center (the almost-forgotten "Pumped Up Kicks" hitmakers are there June 22; now all Target Center needs is a date with "We Are Young" himakers fun. to complete a trifecta of sorts). Possibly helping add buzz to Gotye's concert is the fact that his Epic gig boasted a rather impressive production, with a cool backdrop of animation and other visual tricks -- all of which could come off better at a bigger venue where more than half the crowd can see the stage.
