Hamilton Special Announcement on August 11

[Tandrews]

Great, now more ways Jeffrey Seller can spy on me! It's amazing what apps are able to track as part of their terms of service.

Anyone else super delayed in getting emailed a verification code to enter? Still waiting for mine... 

You are not alone.  I think it's been about 40 minutes and I still haven't received mine either.

[NYadgal]

Meh.  I don't disagree with having one.  Why not?  It's a hot brand.

I was just expecting something a little more... exciting.

Yes, it was LaneBryant.

 

Re: Verification emails - Same here. It's taking forever. Glad I'm not alone.

The only way I would be excited about an app is if you pressed a button and Lin-Manuel shows up at your house and sings My Shot for you. 

 

Maybe be this is why they've delayed putting the new block of tickets on sale. By my calculations, that should have happened in June or in early July, at the latest.

LOL!

Makes me really, really wish there was indeed a "PARTNERS 3: Barbra Streisand Sings Hamilton with OBC"

[Jordan Catalano]

Uh-Oh, people are pissed. What's next for the Rodgers?

[MinervaMoon]

They're also doing a live Ham4Ham in Los Angeles next week.

The note from Lin in the app says "and we've got more up our sleeves", so you never know.

I wonder if the Ham Folks didn't mean for this big major announcement to explode like it did. Maybe they just posted something to generate a small amount of enthusiasm among true fans, but it took off, like any good viral campaign, to be much larger than the actual announcement. 

In my opinion this fits perfectly with Hamilton, hype being more than substance. I know I'm in the minority of people who greatly enjoyed the show but felt it didn't live up to the hype (or maybe the hype was over-hyped?). So massive buildup for a less than important announcement seems par for the course. 

[Alexander Lamar]

Maybe there will be an exclusive pre-sale for the next block of tickets via the app?

Agreed, but just to clarify, it was originally posted by "givesmevoice".
