Word from the folks at the Convention and Visitors Bureau's Convention and Performing Arts Centers (say that fast three times) is that Sunday's Megadeth show is sold out.
The show was moved from Club 101 on Thursday, the same day a few hundred more tickets were put on sale via Ticketmaster.
I got word a little while ago that it's gone clean. That doesn't mean there won't be some production holds or other tickets released. It wouldn't hurt to check just in case you're thinking of going. Best bet would be ticketmaster.com or 800.745.3000.
The Chavez box will open around 4 p.m. that day. You could try your luck there, too.
