It's very stressful indeed, phew!!!

Bit much promoting this pre-sale access to shill the album, then the process is a complete shambles.

The Royal Opera House in London is a world class institute but how they handle this... it's a shame.

Got Error 500 over and over again for Saturday.
Then 49 minutes to go.
Then they paused the queue!

OK, the queue is paused. Do we have to wait still the queue start again? Or is our place in the queue already lost by now?

“You are in the queue. The queue is paused.”

Oh now back to 5 mins. Not holding out much hope. This would have been nice but I can live without it.

To be fair - the Royal Opera House ticketing system is actually very good and regularly handles entire 3 month seasons of nightly operas going on sale at the same moment with no problems. So it should easily be able to cope witg 5 nights. It’s either a legit, rare problem with their website or the demand is absolutely overwhelming (which I don’t believe)

Oh - the queue is unpaused now.
We’re different from the others.
No one understands us here.
Imagine how free we will be,
If we disappear?
