That's what I can't figure out.

I applied online and had my name on the list beforehand and got a white, yet others who'd apparently done the same got a blue so not only got in first but as such were pretty much guarenteed getting in.

No biggie, we got in and had really good seats in the middle anyway. I was just wondering what the secret was should any other shows come up.

In my case I like to think it's because I'm important, well loved and thoroughly deserved such star treatment.... but I guess it's nothing of the sort, just a random process !

With the Applause Store you can pay an annual subscription to be on the priority list for most of their ticketing, I don't see the same thing at SRO who did this event. When I went to see The Magicians recorded via Applause Store, I spoke to a guy who had applied in exactly the same way as I did, only registered specifically for that event, and applied on the same day yet he got a priority ticket and I didn't.

Don't forget to pull your forelock - whatever that is....

One thing that I thought was really awesome, was Mathieu Bich asked Penn to think of a random playing card.

Probably 80% of the audience knew what he was about to say, and sure enough, he did it. hehehe

LOL, saw an old employee of mine doing the queue thing, so we got 'er to skip all that rubbish. Had a good chat with the AD and SD too they might have a few twists in the edit !
