Timberlake also shared a short clip of what is presumably a new song. "All we need is one moment, or two," the singer croons over the beat.

"We're at the table, seated, and ready to eat, sir. No crumbs will be spared for this roll out," one user commented. Another said they felt like they were 21 again having a "panic attack" while attempting to get tickets for the show.

Tickets, available though Ticketmaster, are available through a registration form on Timberlake's website. The window to request tickets closes on Friday at 11:59 p.m. ET, and there is a two ticket per person limit.

Users are required to enter their billing information to secure the registration, but the tickets themselves cost nothing. If selected, the tickets are also non-transferable. Confirmation will be sent out "by the evening of Tuesday, January 30," according to the site.

Timberlake will be in New York City this weekend, where he was announced as the musical guest for the Jan. 27 episode of "Saturday Night Live," alongside host Dakota Johnson.
