The ticketing process is impossible!!!!! I've been a fan club memeber since 1994 and can't get tickets any way, any how. The ten club makes it a free for all, which inevitably causes all computers and servers to crash. I get absolutely no credit for being a fan club member for so long--I have to fight with brand new members for tickets. This is the 4th time I have been unable to get tickets through the ten club. I also tried ticketmaster, which didn't have the philly shows listed on their website. The n tried livenation whokept me in queu for 45 mintues then told me all tickets were gone. SO FRUSTRATING :evil:
Amen Brah! Was willing to travel and take kid out of school for the day, but you can't even get decent (below level 300) at 10:00??? Been kicking in and out of here for years and haven't been successful since 03 here but at least Ticketbastard came through. Now you see stubhub assholes making $$$ not the band.
Something is seriously wrong with this entire picture and I'm getting too fucking old to play this shit anymore.

I have been a member since 1994 as well and this is the 3rd time both me and my cousin who is a member were shut out of the ten club tickets. I actually like the mail order process they used to do. It was tough waiting all that time to see if you got tickets but atleast you had a fair chance. Server issues throws a wrench into the whole thing and it is frustrating for the fan club members who year after year pay a yearly fee for what? Sure, we get the fan club single but now a days you can probably just get the song for free by searching for downloads.
Truth is, this process will never change because people still get tickets and people will never just stop trying. I'm just as guilty, went on LiveNation and got section 322 for Philly night 2, only to find out after that they might be obstructed view. However, after this, I'm giving it some serious thought on if it is worth it anymore. I love PJ, and it is always amazing seeing them in concert, but I'm not so sure it is an even trade off anymore.
Local radio dj Matt Cord here in philly just reported they MAY add 1 or 2 more shows.. Buckle your seatbelts.. Here we go again!
I called the spectrum to see if they had box suites available and they told me they were sold out for Wednesday and Friday but had tickets for Saturday. I said huh. Bought 3 box seats(beer and food included) $225 a piece. I guess they have booked the spectrum for the 31st they said and were selling seats. also they said a show on Thursday possibly might be added.

Seriously, no Boston? Anyone know any possibility of Boston or even NYC? I was tempted to go to Philly, but I'm already hitting Toronto and money is tight!!

When i called(10:15A.M.) about Philly-2, i was told that ther are suites available, but NO other seats. I asked about if ther would be another show on the 31st, and was told YES, but NOTHING was for sale at this time. By the way, where are the BOX seats located?
No luck for me either.
You are right, it's keeps getting harder to get tickets each time the fanclub sets this up.
I've been a member since 93, and it seems the only reason to continue the membership is for the Xmas record.
I was lucky this time and got tickets through the club for both of the Spectrum shows but I really empathize with those that could not get tickets. I got shut out for both Camden shows last year; couldn't even listen to the boys for a few weeks I was so bummed. Hopefully they will add some shows and you all will get another chance. These are supposed to be the last shows ever at the Spectrum, probably explains why it is the only east coast venue, and I expect they will be special. Good luck to all.

Not sure, I went to the ticketmaster site, asked for 2 tickets for the 31st show and it came up with some in the 200 level. Not great seats, but they were there.
I have a question about the crowds these days. I haven't seen PJ since the Vitalogy tour. I am taking my 14 year old son to the first show in Seattle. What are the crowds like these days? Is a 14 year old going to be okay?
