I've not had a chance to see their 3D show, so I'm super stoked, even if it's $79.50 for the good seats, which will probably mean an investment of close to a C-note after they add inconvenience fees and taxes. On the plus side, this is practically walking distance from the house - and hopefully, this'll be the last time I feel compelled to catch them. :)
Desperate to make sure I wasn't shut out, I hopped onto the presale promptly at 10, fumbled a bit with the price/number options and by the time it was over, I'd bought a pair of tickets in the second level, kinda near the aisle of the center section - not great but pretty okay.
Then, because I couldn't help myself, I searched AGAIN 15 minutes later using a very specific search just in case somebody let something lapse - and scored CENTER ORCHESTRA ALMOST DEAD CENTER ROW D WOO HOO so now I have two pair. ("Row D" sounds awesome but there are like rows AA-EE in front of A-E - EXCEPT how good can the 3D effect be if you're closer than nine rows back? So maybe it IS awesome.)
Fortunately, I have five months to figure out how to make back my $179 on this pair I won't need. I expect this show will quickly sell out when the non-pre-sale sale starts tomorrow.
