I don't see them - gone already?"

Looking at N 26-28 right now. I'll release them so someone can scoop 'emup."

Weird, tried at least a dozen times but nothing showed up! Oh well. I don't think my sister could make it on a Tuesday anyway. I really wanted to gift her a ticket before Ben leaves but a weekend day would be best.

Question on telecharge searching- does it matter how many tickets you search for?  For example, if I search for 5 tickets and only 3 are available will they pop up?

Can someone please explain the 4 day rule and how it works?  Also how to search on tele charge for released seats?  I have tried but have never found anything.  Thanks.

Professional line sitters at theater today.  Does anyone know if mike Faist is gone.  Last two times he wasn’t there and it wasn’t matinee

If you search 5 tickets it will only pop up if there's 5.

The 4-day rule has been outlined a bunch in this thread but pretty much what I have done is just search from today's date to next week, the period of time you are available to go, or November 19th if you can go at any time and just want to see Ben, with no Wed/Sat matinees (if you just want to see Ben), letting the website choose the seat for you saves time and reserves the ticket immediately. Sometimes a regular price ticket for anywhere from 3-5 days after the search date will pop up. Sometimes it won't. People have had the most luck checking around noon-3PM but I have definitely seen tickets pop up at various times. If it's "not working" then there's just no tickets available- try again later.

Hi guys, I've followed this thread for a while and not too much has popped up about Sundays.  I was wondering what time I should arrive at the cancellation line on a Sunday to guarantee getting a ticket for the matinee?  I really want my mother to see the show before Ben leaves.  Thank you!

You can't ever "guarantee" anything as you never know when others will arrive nor on how many tickets will be allocated.

How many hours are you willing to wait?

True I can’t gaurentee a ticket.  If I were to arrive around 8 would that be way too late since the show is at 3?

Nothing prevents me other than the commute, but I’m just wondering if there’s a general time people arrive for a Sunday show and if 8 would be too late.  If 8 is too late I’m willing to come before.

Since you'd like to "guarantee" your ticket just arrive as early as at all possible ... simple as that.

I waited in the cancellation line yesterday (Sunday 10/15) and was successful. I thought I would post to let you know how it went. I arrived at 12:30 am to ensure that I would be very close to the front of the line. When I arrived, there was only one person there-- a paid linesitter who had arrived at 10 pm on Saturday night and was being paid to be there. We waited throughout the night. I brought a chair but know that you can't bring lawnchairs into the theater so you need to have a plan for what to do with it. The group behind me showed up at 3:30 am and the group behind them at 4:40 am. When the box office opened at 12, they came out with 4 standing room tickets. The individual I was going with did not want standing room, so they skipped me and the linesitter and the standing room went to the group of 4 behind me. Then we waited. They did not come out with the cancelled seats until 2:55 pm for the 3:00 pm show. The linesitter group of 2 went in at 2:55 and I went in at 2:57. I'm not sure if the pair behind me who got there at 4:40 am got in or not. The seats we got were perfect! Orchestra row 5 left center aisle. It was worth all 15 hours I waited. Just know, nothing is guaranteed and they will make you sweat because they really do release tickets at the last possible minute!

Your best shot to "guarantee" a ticket for Sunday is to get there by midnight. Anything after that is a gamble.

Unrelated, there are premium tix coming up on Telecharge for Nov 1- matinee- not with Ben but still cheaper than stubhub $623 total. Row J left Orchestra- 4 seats in.

In my opinion 8 is way too late. Anything after midnight is really a gamble. Someone above said that they barely got a ticket even arriving in the middle of the night.

Is there any way of knowing if the tickets for that show have already been released? Just wondering if there's a way to avoid continuing to refresh when there's no hope of new tickets coming out because they've been sold already.

I have seen them any time between 11 am and 8pm. I have no idea how many tickets have appeared but sold before I saw them. When I have time and am aiming for a certain day, I'll just keep searching throughout the day, and have gotten lucky many times. Good luck!

Generally, Friday's seats, if there are any, are released on Mondays. So far today, I haven't seen anything pop up for this coming Friday. Anything for tomorrow through Thursday would have been released already.

Curious what you paid for those tickets?

Wish me luck, y’all. I’m seventh in the cancellation line today. Luckily it’s a gorgeous day (when the sun is on us) 

 

anyone see any 4 day out tix available on Telecharge today?
