Are you telling me that I will not be able to get a PRINTED version of the ticket no matter what?!?!

I may have missed something so I'll keep it light - but as a longtime concert goer of bands across the spectrum (including PJ of course), keeping the ticket stub as a memento is very important to me. Even in situations these days where mobile delivery is forced I am still able to show up at the box office the day of the show and get a printed copy.  Is this not going to be an option!?!?!  WTF

    The poster gurus are going to flip out if this is true.  Will the matting industry become obsolete?

    I believe they're also only offering "mobile only" posters to go along with the "mobile only" tickets so problem solved.  LOL ! ! !

    If you read anything they sent you, or anything in the ticketing guidelines, you wouldn't have to ask that question here.

    Thank you for the alternative idea - I still say that a band like pearljam and a culture like its fanbase should show more outrage.  It seems minor but a hard ticket is part of the whole experience. This conscious decision by the band/band management is very corporate-esk. I know there must be others out there that feel the same way. 

    Try making only digital options for big events like the superbowl or masters or hall of fame inductions, etc.  There would be a huge outcry and there should be.

    With everything to get outraged about in life, this has to be really low on people's list, thats why people aren't that upset.

    Also its the way of the future. Those other things will go that way.

    I called into PJ radio and asked this very question when they had the guy from TM on. He said that there isnt anything set for this tour. I would defiantly pay $10 more per ticket to have a stub with my actual seat on it at the time of purchase. They could send me the stub two months after the show for all I care.

    Ten Club could set this up literally the day before the first Seattle show and it would work fine.  I did not get the email for the Petty tickets until weeks after my show.
