It is letting me in to buy tickets with the code they sent, but nothing was available every time I went to add to cart. They are all gone now except for the front row super expensive ones.
How expensive is front row? The price range in Miami is $63-$318.
The site has stopped crashing. Wonder if everybody gave up or if I'm doing something wrong.
The Durham seats ranged from $30 - I think I saw $485 for the front couple of rows

Well, hopefully for you the presale was super limited and there will be good seats left on Friday for the general sale.

Well, I got a pair. Second from back row orchestra. I'm in the building which I guess is all that matters. Basically the only pair still left almost two hours later, but after 15 minutes (the second time) I couldn't keep trying.

Will this special release also be a remarkably awkward size that won't fit into any record sleeve or shelf?
