well, that didn't work

U2 tickets for MCI center went on sale at 10am. At 9:55 I sat down at the computer with credit card. At 10 I go to the ticket master site, ask for two tickets, any price, best available, wait wait wait wait, get told no tickets available. Wasn't the internet supposed to be good for these sorts of things? I doubt I'll want to pay what a scalper will want for this concert.
