For the seccond sunday in less than a month, I woke up early to buy tickets to a concert that was going on sale at 10. Both times I sat there for 5 minutes, hitting reload and getting in within 15 secconds of tickets going on sale. Both times the seats it gave me were the rear of the seccond section. Today's were section 200 row Q. I was so disgusted that I didn't buy ticketc for either.

Back in the good old days two or three years ago I used to get great seats using the exact same method. Now it seems everything has fan club seats and "internet presales" and by the time the tickets go on sale there aren't any decent seats left.

If I show up at the venu when tickets are slated to go on sale will I have better luck? I've always assumed i'd be stuck sitting in line when I could just be buying tickets online. With the outrageous prices and fees and crappy seats, I'm growing to hate ticketmaster even more than I have in the past...

Sorry for the rant.
