I just got my tickets. I was expecting fees, but $20 extra fees for a $35 ticket? That's insane. I'd boycott ticketmaster, if it wouldn't affect my show plans ;D Just found out I get an aisle seat! I'm in the right-center section, row N (~15 rows back) Edit: I went ahead and reserved a room here: because of the $49.99 price. If it turns out to be a terrible choice, or we can get a better group rate here/elsewhere, I'll just cancel that reservation.

Mine was only 9.55 extra... still annoying. $148 for 3 tix. $2.50 facility charge (I can handle that, it was already in the price State theater listed) $9.55 (in)convenience charge $2.50 delivery fee (pay to print out your own tickets!) $5.54 processing fee +small amount of tax Total $55.96 for a $35 ticket. I know ticketmaster has to make money somehow, but that's 60% again of the ticket price!

Mine was only 9.55 extra... still annoying. $148 for 3 tix. That's just the Convenience Charge. Then you also have the Facility Charge and the Order Processing Fee. On two tickets, I ended up paying $14.82 extra on each one, excluding taxes and the actual cost of the tickets.

There's also one right by the airport that's $56.99...would that be easier/on the bus route? (It says you have to be 21 to check in...-___-)

(It says you have to be 21 to check in...-___-) I'm driving myself there, so nearness to the airport doesn't matter for me. I'd probably rather drive further from the airport than closer to it, just in terms of congestion/confusion. Both of these choices are some miles away from the theater anyway, so I think I'm staying with the Roseville motel for now.

Hey, I've got the e-mail that has the link to the pre-sale page, but it doesn't include the password. Where can I find the password?
Never mind. I found it!

I picked up two tickets. Right center, middle of a row, but in row F. I was hoping for an aisle, but this is cool.

We look forward to seeing all of you who are going. Have a safe trip and don't leave without looking me up. There will be a big group of people waiting around after the show. Some usher will come up and ask "Are you waiting to meet the Cinematic Titanic crew?" "No. We're here to meet RAD."

So...since people have been getting their tickets now, has anyone given any more thought about where they're going to stay? Or are we not at that point yet? I'm thinking I like that Motel 6 one because it is so cheap. And if you're driving Captain H, could I possibly hitch a ride with you to and from the theater and whatnot? I'd help pay for gas of course.
