Add me to the interested list.

Fair warning: There is a good chance that I will randomly break out into song -- I can't think Roller Derby without getting Croce stuck in my head.

I thought I knew Croce tunes fairly well but did not know about the tune you mention.

Add me to the interested list, I've been meaning to see Roller Derby for a while and I just watched Whip It which has only added to the interest level. Hopefully I can make it work, I always have fun at a Sweet Willie event!

Sounds OK to me. How do we redeem for adjacent seats?

Yes, assuming the tickets aren't as complicated as it sounds.

Once I get a count of who is attending, I'll call and mention code to get discounted seats, I'm sure at that time they'll be able to seat us all together.
