I thought it was "no lineups before 8 am." - hmmm. I wonder if the first 20 or so in line don't have a limit placed on prints, like was reported at Fenway.
For those of you who are interested. Of the 28 shows I've been to, I've missed out on two posters of shows that I attended. I had to get them on ebay. Everyone has a way of remembering "their shows" differently. We all have a piece of "memorabilia" that ignites our memories and experiences of what I refer to as a "revival". I take extreme measures to make sure I don't miss out on "my piece of memoriabilia" to the revivals that I attend. They may not be able to physically stop a line from forming but the 10C representative that was there on Thursday morning was on the top of his game. He recognized the guy from Fenway that "supposedly" had several people running back and forth from an SUV buying merch to flip and he LIT HIM UP. I wasn't at Fenway so I don't know if he was the same guy but he was wearing a Fenway t-shirt. However, I did hear the suspect gentleman when we were outside in line telling one of his "friends/runners" that he wanted to use "his" credit card to get the mileage points. The tongue lashing delivered by the 10C representative rivaled any I heard from drill sergeants in the military. He made it clear that if he see's him back in line again he's out. One of his runners walked away from the table and the 10C official tried to cancel his order but the guy came back too quickly. So if there have been lapses in representation from the 10C in the past, this was not the case on Thurs. Hat's off to 10C putting g a new Sherriff in town!!!!!

The EarthCam link posted earlier... that line wrapping around Clark and down Addison... is that for Merch or is that for the 10C Will Call? Seems to be moving too slowly for Will Call (just opened at noon), but Merch is another block north of that spot. Need to pick up my tickets on a lunch break but if that's the Will Call line forget it.

I don't see anything wrapping around down Addison right now but that's definitely Will Call.

Yeah about a minute after I posted that the line pretty much disappeared into a compact blob of people around the ticket windows... definitely Will Call.

One they opened the Will Call Box Office, that line moved pretty quick. It's virtually gone now..

I definitely would not wait for your 10C tix. If you see any sort of line, go get a beer and come back in a half hour, and you will be able to walk right up.
Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.
This is really sound advice for just about any situation...
+1 - Hell, I'm only reading about the merch line, living vicariously though you brave souls there. Even I'm going to go get a beer and come back in a half hour.
