Avril Lavigne will be in Charlotte on 8/23 and Raleigh on 8/24. I want to attend either one, it does not matter which. Here is my dilemma. Tickets for both shows go on sale this Friday 4/22 at 10am. I have heard that tickets for sections 1,2, & 3 usually sell out within the first 60 seconds. However, there is an opportunity to obtain presale tickets on Wednesday 4/20 through her website but they are only for the general admission standing pit. I have never been to either ampitheater so my question is for the Charlotte and Raleigh folks who have. Should I go ahead and get the pit tickets on presale or can you usually get tickets for the front sections (1,2,or 3) on the regular sale date? I have no experience with this and I don't want to be out in the grass.

P.S. If anybody has any hookups for front section seats I am willing to compensate you generously.
