Currently in the queue. Some advice - it did not recognize me as a member, but once I clicked on the “use my membership” button up by the profile, I was able to click on the event from there and join the queue.

I just got in and was able to log in easily, but now stuck on the blue loading page.

Same, went from the queue to the blue loading page
When that happened to me yesterday I opened another tab in the same browser and was able to get in quickly. The site is very buggy with all of this traffic. You could also open an incognito window while you wait and log in again to see if that gets you through faster - that worked for someone yesterday as well.
Finally managed to get a ticket for 09/30!! Not exactly the seat I would have wanted but all the other dates were sold out and the seats just kept disappearing as I was trying to choose!! Seat is towards the back but it's a small theater so I'm hoping all seats are good! So relieved that's over!!
The website is so glitchy. I opened up a new browser and didn’t have to wait in any queue. I immediately selected a performance and chose my seats (very simple). I recommend doing that if you’ve been stuck in the queue.
Got two tickets for October 14th at the $129 price point!

I had a similar experience. It seems that, if (while logged in) you can get to the Shed’s drop-down menu, you can choose Program > Current and Upcoming, scroll down to Here We Are’s little box, and choose “member presale” to go straight to date selection without the queue.
I’m really struggling here. I have a computer with fast internet and have been stuck on tons of Loading pages for a half hour. I was only number 321 in the queue. I entered a queue on my phone to see if that would make a difference, but I’m really feeling disappointed. I don’t understand how I haven’t gotten through even once in an entire half hour.

My wife and I got the same seats HH 101 and HH 102, but two nights later (Tuesday, Oct. 17). Went smoothly. No idea whether those side seats near the front of the stage will be good or not, but that's what we were aiming for - so at least we'll be close. The price was $129 each, plus the $5 fee per ticket.
Thanks to everyone for all of their invaluable suggestions, especially TaffyDavenport.
Our October trip is going to be Sondheim-heavy, as it already includes Merrily We Roll Along.

Try opening up a different window in the same web browser. That worked for me yesterday. Make sure you’re logged in. Or, try logging out then logging back in in a new window

It eventually asked me to sign back in and I was then quickly able to get them! Thank you
Hm. Easier than I thought it would be. Got through the queue relatively quickly and was able to find seats for our desired date. I wonder how tomorrow will go now.
By the way, in case people didn't know and haven't gotten their tickets yet, if you have IDNYC, it entitles you to a free year of membership at the Builder 1 level, which includes the 15% off of 2 tickets. I didn't realize this wasn't common knowledge so hopefully it helps someone out!
The show isn’t even on sale to the public yet lol. I’m sure it will be just fine.
"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022)
"Bernadette's whole, stunning performance [as Rose in Gypsy] galvanized the actors capable of letting loose with her. Bernadette's Rose did take its rightful place, but too late, and unseen by too many who should have seen it" Arthur Laurents (2009)
"Sondheim's own favorite star performances? [Bernadette] Peters in ''Sunday in the Park,'' Lansbury in ''Sweeney Todd'' and ''obviously, Ethel was thrilling in 'Gypsy.'' Nytimes, 2000
