Since I had to work today, I asked my mum to queue up for me to get the tickets. she was like the 15th in the queue. She could hear people ordering seats at the counter, and the tickets were selling out so fast. my mum was told that there was only 1 seat left in the $280 section the second the tickets started selling!!
there were many times when a person specified the seats, and when the staff wanted to print the tickets, the seats were already sold at another ticketing point! people were in such a frenzy and said "just any seats..before they are gone!!"
in the end, my mum managed to get me $480 tickets. I am so happy!
