So her and I walked right up to the front of the line at like 7 and just talked to the guy in the front of the line, because I knew who he was. Well, I got in right away (after she had to buy her shirts, which cost us spots directly on the railing) and the rest is history.
You the guy who bribed us off with Pizza?
I remeber a small scuffle between two people at the front.

Were you the guy who neededto "use the bathroom" at like 6 and tried staying in there?

You know, I think I might have offered to bring somebody pizza, but I don't think it was in exchange for a spot in line. And the guy in the front of the line, with the black rimmed glasses and black hair, have me shit. A lot of shit. See, I won the tickets for that show on the radio, and he offered me $50 for a ticket, and I told him no, that I wanted to bring the girl, and he was pissed at me for it. I don't know if I was the specific guy you're thinking of in either case, but yeah. I walked up to the front of the line because my tickets were being held, so I went up there to get my tickets and yeah, I got lucky.
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.

Yeah, online is OK, as long as you get the shit done right away. I mean at 10:00 you have to be on the page to make sure you get the tickets.

The show at Saint Andrews sold out in three, and that was for their weakest selling cd. So what do you think?

just a word of advice.

if buying on line go one line right before they go on sale.

you will get the message that says not available yet. Just keep hitting it till they are available. I did that with the Y101 show this year. They were suppose to go on sale at 4PM they actually didn't go on till a minute or two afterwards. Also if on-line sells out you can try to walk to a ticketmaster. I think they only allow a certain amount of tickets to be sold on line.

I would try to get on early. There are alot of shows going on sale in NYC tomorrow at that time. I know it shouldn't have any baring but it might since you are trying to get into the ticketmaster mainframe.

goos luck guys.

Yeah, I need to get 4. One for me, one for my friend Tony, one for Steph (if she can go, and I don't think she likes me anymore) and one for a person who might have to go to the concert with her, if needed. I am blowing my money away. And I dunno if Tony will pay me back, and I sure don't wanna buy a ticket for a stranger either.

It is your birthday, isn't it? :)

Damn - if it only fell on a weekend, I'd be willing to make the trip. Just get a cheap motel for the night.

I'm off to the Wonderland meetup. Woohoo!

Just thought I'd be the first to brag that I got tix for the show.

Got online 10 till started hitting refresh like mad at 3 til.

5 mins later I got my ticket ordered, then thoguht about it for another minute before I ordered another. I'm sure if i don't find a friend to go with me, I should be able to "Give" (I can't sell it, that would be scalping and aginst the law) the other to a person in need once I'm there.

Now if you'll excuse me I think I'll be heading back to bed.
*Mumbles* 10 in the morning on a saturday what are these ppl nuts this better be worth it ...
