Presale times are often a weekday morning—say, 10 AM local time. This is not a suggestion; this is a mandatory appointment. Set three alarms. Tell your boss you have a “dentist appointment.” Make sure your Wi-Fi is working.
I like to do a “tech check” the night before. Open the ticket website, log in, and make sure you remember your password. There is nothing worse than panicking because you can’t remember if your password was “TreatPeopleWithKindness” or “Kiwi123.”
If you can, use a laptop or a desktop computer. Phones are great for scrolling TikTok, but a computer with a stable connection often feels faster when the server gets crowded. Think of it as bringing a racecar to a go-kart track.
