10c tickets are a joke

I got tickets for tonight in Charlottesville on the floor? Behind the pit
And now ticketmaster is releasing floor tickets that are better than 10c tickets.
I have a ok # 158xxx. But shouldn't be surprised my fan club tickets have gradually gotten worse
since 03.

Im 165 and for Hartford I had better seats than those on the side. I cant see Charlottsville being a hotspot for many 10 clubbers to flock to.

Not to be a cock.
Yep, this is what I predicted would happen. I'm guessing not as many 10clubbers entered for GA tickets and went for reserved fearing they would be shut out if they just entered for GA (that's what I did). Then, if not all GA tickets were sold to 10 club, they would release the extras for general public. NOT a fan of this new system. I got side section almost halfway down in Buffalo on 166XXX and really felt sorry for the low number fans who were sitting way back behind the GA section. Not cool, imo.

The system def needs to be tweaked.

I'm thinking this venue is either very small or there is a snafu.

Come on, dude. That's just crazy talk. GA has been fucking awesome. When you get it next time around, you'll be eating your words. Plus, I think it's really energized the shows and that makes it better for all of us, no matter where you're sitting.
Are there any instances of GA tickets being released for public sale? I have not heard any.
"...I changed by not changing at all..."
Dude, shows have never lacked energy...and I chose reserved so I don't have to stand in line all day and run over some one to get to the rail. Don't worry, I'm out numbered, so i'm pretty sure they will keep it.

Well, there you go. I stand corrected.
Still doesn't explain why the OP's reserved seats are on the floor. Every other show he would have been on the wing near the stage with a number like that.
"...I changed by not changing at all..."
I didn't mean to imply the shows lacked energy in the past. I just meant that I think GA adds to the energy up front and there is no denying that. I think the band feeds off that energy. I saw them four times so far on this tour and they've been some of the best shows I've ever been to. Sure, it's a combination of the new record and setlists and other things but GA and fresh faces up front are definitely a factor as well. But whatever, this is a side issue anyway.
Same in Worcester and Hartford.
"...I changed by not changing at all..."
Yes, totally agree. But, honestly, I think this new system brings in more $$ for the band as they can sell more tickets. It's just my guess anyways. There must be more people that can fit into the GA section instead of rows of seats. Too bad it is like this. Not all 10 clubbers want to or can do GA.

I was talking about the reserved section behind GA. Those would have been the start of the reserved seats, right? Who were sitting in the back reserved section then? General public tickets? I thought the 10c email for the ticket sale said reserved was behind GA. I was 106 row 5 on 166xxx.

leave 100 GA available, and let some unsuspecting people have the night of their lives..
im sure that idea will not be popular around here. But i also feel the new energy the band has had on this tour with GA up front, and i think letting in some people who are not 15+ year fan clubbers into GA is a good idea.
Not only that but revert back to 1 set of 10C tickets per tour like the 2000 tour. That effectively gve people a home-advantage and everybody got a very-good to great seat. Then, for all other shows, T/M. Your luck with T/M may exceed your luck with the current petition/lottery for 10c shows.
I just kinda think that instead of having all these 10c shows available, having 1 show with really great seats would be super-special. When everybody is going to multiple shows, the 10c caste system takes its toll and everybody gets pushed back. At one point, I'm willing to get 10c and T/M tickets both for the same show and then use the ones where I can see better. Buying 4 tickets for 2 people at a PJ show is still cheaper than 2 tickets to most other concerts. A couple of empty seats won't hurt anybody. They still get paid for it.
No. Those seats are the last seats given the members with the highest numbers. The lower your number the closer you would be to the stage on the wing under this system.
"...I changed by not changing at all..."
What is your number? I have a thread going and some guy with 260xxx got wing seats about 20 rows up in Hartford
