    Same thing for me. I was so discouraged after Boston, and then I got NY on the first try. Very strange...

    After reading about Boson I decided to try for NY.

    My birthday is August 4th and my wife is going to be in Northern NJ at her family's on August 4th. Decided maybe there was some amazing way I could get to an EV solo show on my birthday if I could get a frequent flier free ticket...no such luck since all the free tickets for that time were the "cost" of two regular tickets other times. So, sadly, I decided to bag it.

    I guess I decided to try for 10C tickets just to make me feel better about not going, if I couldn't get them, which I figured I couldn't based on the Boston tickets.

    And of course, I could. Clicked Buy, proceeded to checkout step 2, then ...released them for another lucky soul to buy. Sorry for being one of "those guys." Hope someone else enjoys the seats!

    Got NYC1 after 21mins of refreshing, being logged out twice and getting the buy button about 7 times. First time I've managed to get tix through 10C, thanks! Keep trying people :)

    Wish I could say the same. I'm 0-3 so far. Probably 0-5 in an hour and a half.

    Keep trying. Use Firefox and follow the tips in the thread on here (somewhere). It worked for me for the first time. As corny as it sounds, be positive... they'll come ;)

    Thanks, Tone :) I'm trying. Firefox and all. It didn't help that my internet connection decided to drop right at 4pm, heh.

    Me too! Got NYC II, after 4 hours of constant clicking! I was starting to believe this would be impossible, I am happier right now then I would be if I would the lottery...Ok, maybe that is an over exaggeration... but yeah I am happy, cant wait to see how much these seats rock! I mean with so few available.
