NPG Tickets...how does it work?

Next week in Boston will be the first time I use NPG ticketing. Can someone fill me in on how it works. I know you have to bring the credit card and ID but what time do you show up to get tickets and do you need anything else? Is there a specific window you need to go to?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Mark

I was just wondering what your last name began with. I went to the NY show and my name ends with S and I was in the back.

That is not true. It is not based on your last name. Mine starts with a W and for all my shows I was 2ND ROW!!!!

I'm not sure how tickects are actually assigned..I was under the impression it was first come, first served but I don't think thats it. I purchased my tix at about 4 minutes after they went on sale for the ATL 9/10 concerts and ended up in the second and third rows, but my best bud purchased hers at about 10 past and she ened up with front row seats on both nights! Last name may have something to do with it... hers starts with a C and my last name starts with a K. Membership seniority might also have something to do with it-we've both been members since club inception, but I let mine lapse at the begining of 2001.

Wierd, I'd like to know how it is done, also. A lot of fan clubs go by seniority.
