I just got my ticket online and no problem with the server as well. Seat selection not the best - I like side orchestra aisle. I got for a Sat night in Nov - first row side mezz (but not on aisle).
I think tickets will be tough for a little while as (1) it IS Lincoln Center with subscribers and (2) initial ticket availability is only through Jan 23rd (3) the cast is amazing if you know anything about theater - you got LuPone, Mitchell, Benanti - all Tony winners - along with Scott and for the Idol set, Guarini (HUH?) and (4) You have Sher directing and Yazbek doing the music (who always does a great job with movie based shows - just look at Full Monty and Dirty Rotten Scoundrels).
Surprised to see it only available through Jan 2011. You know it will probably play longer than the intitial run is allocated. I guess they are trying to front load the ticket sales (maybe to drum up demand) and then will extend and release great seats after us chumps buy up the crappy seats in the initial run and create all the demand.
Oh well, anything worth seeing is worth suffering a less than desirable seat (if Front Row Mezz can be considered less than desirable).
