What to do with extra Nashville EV tickets?

Ok, I've run into a problem and am hoping that someone here can point me in the right direction.

A friend and I both bought a pair of 10 club tickets for the 6/17 EV show in Nashville. I was taking my girlfriend and my friend was taking someone she went to college with. Since we bought the tickets, I've broken up with my girlfriend and the person taking the other ticket lost their job and cant make the trip. (We are about 11 hours from Nashville and the cost of gas + ticket +hotel is too much for the unemployed, its even a bit much for the employed). So, here we are with 2 extra 10 club seats. We would be happy to return a pair, but the whole "all ticket sales are final" puts a damper on that. We know we can't sell the tickets, and try as we might, we can't find any other friends who are interested in the roadtrip.

I know we can't be the only people in this situation, and I understand the policy about not re-selling the tickets. But all of our options kind of suck. Neither of us planned on paying $150+ per ticket, and as a 10 club member we both see it as a total waste to let 2 10 club seats go unused.

Is anyone else having this problem? Does anyone have any reccomendations for us? Things that wouldnt cause us to lose out 10 club membership and future pearl jam tickets that is...

    You can sell for face...work out a deal and meet someone at the show after you pick up tix. I wish I could make it, I'd buy them off you for face.

    Ah, I just re-read the ticket policy and it appears you are correct! WooHoo! Thats takes my stress level down about 1000%.

    So, anyone interested in a pair of Nashville tickets?

    I'm in a similar situation.. I might have an extra pair of 10C tickets to the June 17 Nashville show. Similar circumstances freed up the 2 tickets. PM if anyone wants them for face.
