Getting patrons from a widget to an extraction

Hello all,

I've been asked to create an extraction which includes first time ticket buyers from last season.

I know I can filter by "First Performance Date" in a dashboard widget, but can't find a way to get those folks into an extraction. I don't see "First perf date" as an extraction or list criteria, and had even considered trying to save the widget contents to a list and then using the list in my extraction, but I don't think I can do that without the extra step of exporting to a .CSV and then importing to a list. 

Have I missed a more obvious way to get there?

Thanks for being smart, friends!

    You could go for a simple extraction method.

    In an extraction you could simply do two criteria sets. The first would be a suppression set of all of the buyers that have purchased in the seasons before. The second would be all of the purchasers from that season who purchased a ticket. 

    Anyone who purchased previously, should be suppressed from  the second set.

    You could save those to a list if you need to use them in a larger extraction.
