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

Congrats Maurizio , I read the GOOD NEWS !!!So thrilled for you. I hope other people also get lucky!.
 
 

There is a branded shop beside the theatre (La Scala Shop) that carries books, CDs, DVDs, souvenirs, etc. But you won't find anything JW or film music related, only classical music stuff. If you have time to spare, I heartily suggest to make a stop at La Scala Museum (right beside the theatre as well), it's well worth a visit and they also have nice guided tours.
 
There is 0% chance of getting autographs from JW, he doesn't do public signings or stuff like that.

I am an optimist by design I am confident something good will happen!

Thank you all for the nice words.
 
It's more than likely there will be return tickets available closer to the date, plus people canceling their plans and selling tickets, etc. as you all have noted. It always happens. I was bitten by this turn of the events on the spot since I was in front of my computer since 9am, but then I realized it wasn't any different than other situations. It's a single night gig and the theater capacity is under 2,000 seats. It was expected to sell out in minutes.
 
And Jay, we'll make your stay in our city very pleasant, that's for sure!

When I saw that the sale was being handled through that ticketing website (Vivaticket.it), I feared the outcome could be very negative for a lot of people, no matter how early you got there. Today I had the confirmation that this platform has one of the worst queueing system around (it seems to privilege people who buy seats through the "Find Best" option rather than picking them manually). Anyway, I tried and wasn't successful. My wife was on another computer at work and it was the same for her. The system kept booting us out before checking out after we picked our seats. I have many friends who weren't successful either, so we're in a big good company to share woes. An Italian saying goes, "Shared pain, half the joy".
 
I feel sorry especially for the people who were already arranging traveling plans because of this concert. For once in my life, it was the mountain coming to Muhammad, so I didn't have to deal with booking flights and hotels.
 
But it feels more than awkward to have John playing in my hometown and be left out of the theater. Life has a lot of sense of irony, doesn't it?

Thank you all for the nice words.

I still can’t believe this. It’s beyond anything I could have ever dreamed of. John Williams conducting his music in the city where I’m born and where I live, in one of the temples of classical music. Utterly amazing.
