The online queue for Hamilton tix in SF is an hour long — Page 3

MarkBearSF said: "notalwaysontime - Glad you got your seats. Merely passing on info that was reported by other posters. By the way, I was referring to the Amex pre-sale block, not the extra member tickets."




Yeah, that's what I was talking about too, the Amex Pre-Sale block, that's where we got our Mezz tickets from. So maybe there just weren't as many? But they were definitely available. I wonder if they sold early on, or something like that.

Is there a cast list for the San Fran run?

Ouch - don't say that. There has been no casting announced for the San Francisco run.

Number 15,839 in line. This should be fun. Thanks for the help, Mark!

Lining Up for Tickets in San Francisco This Morning...

LOL...my apologies. Thanks for the reply.

I just found a seating chart that notes the overhang and it's at orchestra row P.

One other consideration is the sound in that house. It's notoriously muddy. Inexperienced/lazy sound engineers often crank up the volume which only makes it worse. However, especially since the tour starts in SF and they're rehearsing here, I'd expect that they'll have great sound. However, for other productions, you might want to avoid the first 3 rows or so beneath the lip (P-R).

Yeah, I was thinking that too, especially when I saw people on line sitting on the ground. Yuck. Walking through UN Plaza you practically need waders sometimes! Although with all the rain we've had maybe the bricks are not quite as befouled with urine. I didn't see any of SHNSF's Orange Jackets out there but there were SFPD.

BTW, I've chatted with the Orange Jackets before. Most of them are retired SFPD officers.

good luck to all hamilton ticket seekers today!

for those that have gotten tickets, very curious where your seats are and how availability is?

I think the am ex presale last week was loaded with scalpers, and todays que represented more consumer demand.

Do you folks think the whole run will sell out today?

When I got in, there wasn't a lot of availability in March through May, but there seemed to be a lot of availability after that. I didn't want to pay $500 for tix and it seemed like most of the center orchestra were that much. I got some side orchestra seats for March and some front loge seats to the side for June.

Yeah - I think the subscriber seats made up just under half the house until mid-late May - and subscriber extra tickets were mostly purchased for the same night as their assigned tickets.

Re the tour cast: For a show as hyped as this, with an intensely blinding spotlight on it, and with the first national tour starting in San Francisco, I think it’s safe to say they will select a stellar cast. And based on what they’ve learned during the Public and Rodgers runs, as well as Chicago, the creative team will know exactly who they are looking for in a cast. I actually think the tour cast may surpass the original Broadway cast. My buying season tix to see the show (and the five others) was never motivated by the cast, but more the experience.
