How should I get Sambodromo tickets for carnival in Rio, Brazil in '08?

I'm going to carnival with 5 others. We want to get tickets to the parades in the Sambodromo, but I've looked around and they are sold out. I imagine they can be found from scalpers in Rio. Any one out there have a suggestion. We want to find seats in the bleachers with the general population.

1. I´m currently in Rio on vacation to visiting with family. I have an uncle that works with a tourist agency and I know they have tickets available for all most all nights at fairly reasonable prices. Keep in mind that tickets are cheapest for Friday & Saturday, and Sunday and Monday´s marchs are more expensive with the better schools marching on the those days. My uncle speaks english well and can help you out. You can reach me @ my email or my uncle tony @ tonyfromrio@hotmail.com. Good luck
