Hurray!

Now, can someone send me a phone number that I can pass on to callers who
want tickets?  Are all the slots currently sold out?  Can they get tickets
here in Indianapolis (i.e. from Ticketmaster, travel agents, or some such)?
Apparently the national media attention has actually encouraged people out
here to want to see the show...at least something good has come from all the
silliness.
