I just saw The Great Comet popped up there, but with Groban out. It's good to know they're offering the show and I'm hoping one day they'll do it when he's in which I'm waiting for.

I wouldn't count on that, at least for a while. The show, at least so far, is nearly sold out for most performances he is in for.
Id bite the bullet and go for one of the cheap seats if you want to see him in on a budget. The rear mezz for this show is actually an outstanding view.

I'm sure others will opine differently... but I always pick TDF. I usually check inventory on Telecharge before I buy them and will have an idea of where I will sit based on what is unsold. I can buy the tickets from my couch and show up 10 minutes before the show.
I have heard many stories with people getting amazing seats at a rush, but it's never happened to me. They are sometimes obstructed, and usually worse than TDF, since those were allocated first.
This is sort of a tangent, but in past years, five years ago maybe, it seemed like all the rushes and lottos were front row seats. Now? That's rare. You usually get obstructed seats or rear orch or something.
I usually just use TDF now for the convenience factor, plus the seats are usually good. There may still be rushes with great seats, but they are certainly less common.
I think TDF is particularly good for Off Broadway, because those theaters are smaller. Usually, there are no bad seats. (Of course there may be exceptions.)
I rarely do rush anymore. TDF is much better. The last four Broadway shows I saw through TDF all gave me good center orchestra seats. As neon says, rush has increasingly become a way for theaters to sell of their least desirable seats -- which is fine, but I'd rather take my chances with TDF for close to the same price.
Also, if anyone's interested, tonight's performance of THE FRONT PAGE has been added.
"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."
