    Savini is a tourist trap nowadays, with mediocre food served at absurdly high prices. Don’t be fooled about the premium location in the beautiful Galleria Vittorio Emanuele. It’s very much like the cafés in St. Mark’s Square in Venice, so avoid it.
     
    As a trusted Milanese, I will give you a few tips for good food places in the city center at reasonable prices. Let me collect ideas and will get back to you.

    I just learnt that the Filarmonica della Scala was founded in 1982 by Claudio Abbado.
     
    So not a very long symphonic tradition, really.
     
    Just listening to some of their Sony recording with Muti. Nice sound! ❤

    Indeed, I would not want to use too harsh a word, but...
     
    ...I just received *dozens* of codes from them, also five days too late, as I prepared everything on Sunday evening, and after those emails did not show up (the others were from this whole week, in which I tried to at least check for remaining tickets) I logged in via Google, *whichstillworked* as late as Monday 1am!
     
    I felt good about all that.
     
    Come Monday 2pm, I had browser bookmark to "best seats available", credit card, and phone ready, only to realise there and then that Google sign-in did not work all of a sudden, no code had arrived, and since I truly detest facebook, I could not think of the credentials of my fake account I had created three (!) years ago to access some cool event pictures I wanted to keep as mementos of another marvellous time.
     
    Then, instead of taking seconds, I tried to change my fb password during the next minutes, only to find out that they now require high resolution ID pics to do just that.
     
    *sigh*
     
    What a mess. Now you know my personal vivaticket story.
     
    BUT
     
    I will be there in Milano (w/ Stefano hopefully, and binder, as mentioned in the post above) to celebrate w/ you all!
     
    That's a promise.
     
    Ciao! o/

    An additional Milan date is extremely unlikely as the theatre is fully booked in either previous or following days.
     
    I too believe the demand this time was particularly high given what was available. It wouldn't surprise me if there were around 10,000 people online at that moment.
     
    Btw, in an incredible turn of the events, a kind-hearted JWfanner decided to sell to me one of the two tickets he succeded to get during yesterday's sale. I will be forever grateful to him
