I am one of these types of people that tries to get a ticket as soon as they go on sale as well. In my city, people don't often buy a ticket to the show until the last minute.

For me, I want the show to not get cancelled due to low ticket sales, so I... I buy early. :D

But I realise that the people that are performing these shows are just normal people. They shit. They eat. They have their own anxieties.

They just created something people relate to and enjoy.

I just wish academics were mobbed in the same way musicians and sportspeople were.
