Default Pissed off with Ticketmaster Australia

I have been a member for ages now and assumed that was all that was required for the presale ... I log on to find I need a password which I havn't been given any info on. So now I needa camp out and hope I can get tickets, which'll prob sell out before they even open their doors as Sidney Myer Music Bowl has a tiny capacity.

I managed to score some silver side view tickets from the ticketek presale, so I'll at least see em once but still ... these companies are just so irritating!

I kept refreshing and got 2 seats in the 7th row, middle section. At exactly noon it gave me the option to buy them.

I really can't wipe the smile of my face right now

Apparently sidney myer music bowl sits 2030 people, with 28,000 on the hill.
I hate the hill last time i was there i broke my left ankle and twisted my right one at the same time

I have never been to Sidney myer music bowl. Can you see much from the grassed area? There is no way I am paying $300 for a ticket ( because I would need 2). With the seating, are they the $130 ones too?

So confused!

Thanks!

The maximum you can buy in one transaction is 2 reservered seats, or 4 generals. Seating is $299, and general (on the lawn) is $130.
To be honest, I don't think the venue is really that great for bands or anything, but its pretty good for mini-festivals, since you aren't really looking at anything.
