more than a little hacked off to see that good old ebay has tickets to pearl jam at shepards bush for 400 pounds +!! yet genuine fans (me) couldn't get a ticket through ten club...i know you can't keep everyone happy all of the time but why announce an exclusive small venue gig and not hold it open for fans and not touts? I really would have liked to see them close up but am not going to pay some little opportunist for the priveldge. oh well thats life!...any chance of a ten club only concert ever?

    Agreed.

    Guess what.

    Did it ever occur to you that some fans are touts? Like you said, that's life. It sucks, but it is what it is.

    I really don't get all the anger directed at 10c, being a member gives you a chance to buy tickets to shows not exclusive rights.

    I understand the dissapointment I would have loved to have gone to this show but touts will always find ways of getting their hands on tickets.
