    This was for DC 2006. Got them in my cart after refreshing for like 20 minutes, then when attempting to checkout the tickets got lost. Then I refreshed for 75 more minutes as it said "Temporarily Out Of Stock" and then "Sold Out".

    You're intriguing me... what exactly would you have done differently?



    there's the rub - no one will ever tell you. ;)
    like to point out that you're none too smart or patient....but no one ever gives you the 'tips' as what to do. :lol:

    i'm just gettin' old....i seemingly 'forget' all the tips i've been told/learned, hahaha.....but i'm not complaining, i've been very fortunate. however, you just never know wtf is gonna happen with each sale, especially for shows in the NE!



    Dewie shouldn't assume people aren't patient or smart because TC's system is fucked up. Again - I would LOVE to know what he would have done differently that would have made him more successful (and apparently smarter) than I. Is 2006 not a recent enough show?

    BTW - Superfuzz are you this guy?

    dont forget that Chicago is Sunday/Monday, and it's Chicago (only city within 2 hours is Milw).

    Philly is Wed-Sat and everyone from Boston/NY/NJ will be trying for these shows as well.

    the more bullshit we have to go through, the more I am thinking it's not worth it. even with 128xxx our seats wont be great. MSG2003 we were about 25th row on the floor, and that was WITH other surrounding shows.

    Welcome to Europe ;)

    Anywho, I agree with D2D - while it's lucky for those of us who have easy access, it's an unfair advantage. It's actually easier for me to buy tickets IN work - guaranteed a decent, fast and work connection to buy them.

    One can hope, but with the way they sold the EV tickets, I'm not holding my breath.

    It would just be nice to know.

    I'd rather pay an additional $10 service fee on top of normal service fees if they did the presale thru TM with our membership numbers as passwords if it meant we could have 24 hours notice. The only reason I believe they do it this way is to save their website from crashing, while TM doesn't seem to have that problem. ...let someone who can do it right sell the tickets.

    From reading Kat's post today...it looks like an annoucement will be made tomorrow and tickets will go on sale immediately. That is the way they have been doing it lately. No reason to think they would change. It does not matter how much we bitch they are going to do it their way.

    I wouldn't say that.

    Remember the "Current Information" thread?
    viewtopic.php?f=4&t=97948

    That came immediately after a large number of threads and complaints about the secrecy of their dates, and listing one date at a time.

    My bets are that the band saw the threads and complaints, agreed with us to some extent, and had Rubysdad post the general plans for the West, etc. It even said "The band would like to let you know", as if the words weren't from Ten Club, but from the band directly.

    I think there is the potential for SOME influence.

    definitely agree!
    there have been a LOT of changes with the 10c over the past couple years, and i'd say a LOt of them directly related to feedback/comments made on this board.


    lottery system for 4 rows each show east coast shows 2008
    bracelet system for poster purchase

    just 2 that pop into my head....and there are others that i am not remembering off-hand. honestly, why else would they even bother having their own, official bbs community? to see what the FANs think! obviously, they are going to make their own decisions, but i absolutely do believe 10c does read a lot here, especially topics that get brought up again and again...and sure, that have actual relevance...;)

    There are no tips. Just be here tomorrow and you'll get your tickets to any shows you want. Be a little less fanatical and you may miss out on the 2 or 3 most popular shows.

    Basically, if you're posting in a thread like this and know when the announcements gonna be, you're in good shape to get tix.

    We got two notifications about the shows, first on Friday letting us know to have our ducks in a row for midnight on the 7th, and today that things would shake out tomorrow. KAT has posted everything possible to let us read between the lines. Thanks KAT!!!

    Thanks so much for reassuring a new fan. Just joined last Sept. and way high# 424XXX, I don't expect good seats from reading all the posts, but just get the chance to enjoy PJ live is already more than I can ask for.
