I thought the presale went very smoothly. Probably because there are a lot more available seats at MPP than at the 9:30.
 
 I had the same experience as Jonas, but I was going for floor seats or bust and just kept searching until I got them.  There seemed to be a lot of good seats available.

If you try again tomorrow morning during the regular sale you probably have a decent chance of getting pit tickets.

Yeah, last time they played, I tried 4 or 5 hours after the presale started and wound up with row 6 seats.  
 
 GGW, I think I remember you needing a ticket to the Decemberists show...is that true?  Cuz I've got one.

Same here.  Came up with Row P and threw 'em back.  I'm very picky when it comes to MPP.

That's pretty ballsy.....you may have ended up with row TT possibly if those seats would have evaporated......I tried to go back in and see what was available,but already purchased my seats....I may try later....

I was only going to get a ticket if I could get in the orchestra or the first few rows.  So I see Row AAA and go for it and then realized after the fact that its the front row of the side section DOH!  Which might be great for some people but Im not too into it.  Anyone who wants to reimburse me for my costs for the ticket feel free to message me haha

Are you sure?
 
 According to the seating chart that is in the "orchestra."
