          This will be my second time seeing him and the first time I was front row center so I can't complain about being 10 rows back.

            Still not sure if I'm heading down or not, but grabbed a ticket...figured it'd be easier to sell an unwanted ticket later than try and find one for sale. Got in right when they went on sale...ended up on the 1st balcony, first row. I'm not familiar with the theater, so hopefully that's a good seat (surely not as good as ten rows back (congrats, Martin!), but...).

              It's funny how we were all there when the tickets went on sale and are seated in three different sections. While I am in the second balcony, I too am in the front row so I should be able to see fine.

                I have a photo of the auditorium above. Our tickets are similar. I have attended events here before and there is not a bad seat in the house.

                  It appears that they sold out within ten minutes so there were a lot of purchases hitting the server at the same time.

                    For those like me who are unfamiliar w/ the theater, here is the seating chart:

                    Those give me a pretty good sense of what view I'll have...not bad, all in all.

                      Tweet from Powell's shortly after tickets went on sale:

                      Our 10/3 event with Stephen and Owen King has SOLD OUT. There are no remaining tickets available.

                          I'll be happy to email them if anyone would like an extra ticket. I'm an early riser.

                            Looking more and more like I'll never get to see him in person. Hoping to snag a signed copy though...

                              I think they'll be plenty to be had once the hype dies down. Like with End of Watch.

                                I saw them last night. It was more charming and intimate than I'd expected with a crowd of over 3 thousand. I loved hearing about their collaboration and thoughts on writing. Owen was awesome and of course so was his dad. A great night. AND I was one of the lucky ones who walked away with a signed copy.
