So, have a late thanks!
In Sunday's paper of the Star Tribune in Minnesota there was an article about finding deals for broadway shows etc. I don't know if you were interviewed or what but you were mentioned in the article and you mentioned broadway space and a couple of other sites. I enjoyed reading it =]
Cheers -
Very useful site.

All the best,
