Standing there across the street just before showtime. A cab pulls up a guy gets out walks up to me and another guy asking if we need a ticket. We are saying hell yes when somone runs over and says $1000 and whips out a wad of hundreds. :(

    At least it appeared not to be a 10 clubber but a guest selling it. It was really sad to see a lot of those people showing up late for the show. Can you imagine being fashionably late for this show? It was also odd seeing a couple of people stopping at the box office and picking up like 10 wrist bands.

    There were some people passing around a story that there were only 240 pairs of tickets sold to 10c members. However, given the line I saw I don't believe that could have been true. Some people there though were still kind of trying to find a place to put their frustration which I managed to successfully shed here with a brief bout of bitterness Sunday.

    How did they have a ticket when there weren't any, just orange wristbands...

    Hmmm interesting story I must say.

    Metaphorically speaking as in people begging for "Vic Tickets" here in tons of threads.
