Argh! I'm so upset! We received notice that The Flight of the Conchords was coming to Portland and pre-sale tickets would go on sale yesterday at 10am. We tried buying them yesterday at 10am but they were sold out.
Well, we (stupidly) thought, we'll just buy them online when they go on sale to the public this morning at 10am. We tried at 10am. Sold out. I tried calling. Sold out. I drove all the way downtown to the box office at 10:15 am. Sold out. The lady at the box office (who was unmoved by the tears in my eyes) said that only 15 people in line got tickets this morning.
Here's the math:
Number of seats at The Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall: 2,776
Maximum number of tix per household: 8
Number of actual tickets available to the general public based on the box office sales: 120
I hate concerts.
