    For those looking at this, can we all agree not to bombard 10C with emails on this matter, rather give ACCBootlegGoddess dibs on this, and allow her to ask 10C herself?

    This guy would be VERY interested. I got shut out of the 10C when tickets went on sale

    **EDIT** I'll bow out in hopes that ACC gets it

    Thanks Jason - that's probably the email they need... make sure you send it from the same address as the one you used to join 10C so they can confirm, and probably best to include her username (ACCBootlegGoddess). What's your number by the way, out of curiosity?

    I should have my friends with low ten club numbers buy tickets to Portland, Vancouver and Utah even though they can't go. Then, have ten club transfer their tickets into my name.
    why is special treatment even being suggested here? It is against policy yo.

    The guy is sick. Why should he be punished because he is sick. If he is okay with it...how does it hurt you?

    +1... usamamasan1, that was pretty selfish, I'd say. Not to mention out of the goodness in his heart, he's GIVING these tickets, not selling.

    slippery slope is what i am suggesting. sorry the guy is sick, really. But if you expect them to change policy for any number of reasons, inlcuding an illness, it could be manipulated. thats all.

    my grandma died
    i lost my job
    my dog got hit by a car.

    list goes on and on. Not sure why I am selfish. Just trying to point out the potential flaw here in your approac.h. Sure he is giving them away for free. So would my "friend" who has a better ten club number than me. He would buy, then have his dog get hit by a car, then he would post a thread here saying he wanted to give them away for free....to me. :D

    The reason I stated that what you said was somewhat selfish was because this guy's trying to do a selfless act, and put two excellent seats into the hands of a great fan, and you're bringing attention to that, and thus probably moving the Ten Club's attention towards this. The reason the Ten Club doesn't do transfers is exactly for the reason you stated, but I don't know why you felt the need to state that in the first place.

    Don't worry about it man. He's just trying to start shit. I really hope that they let you transfer. If ACC can't use them...I know I would.

    they dont do transfers anymore. they give the tickets to "kids with less fortunate seats" if you don't show up.

    I know that the last couple of tours, they really meant business when they said no transfers, a few people tried with no luck. I had mine transferred back on 2003 (I ended up going at the end with the spare of the person I transferred to) I broke my leg the week before MSG 2003, but since then I've yet to see another transfer I know some people tried last year and it didnt happen, it's worth a shot though, why dont you send them an email (it would have to be your requesting it anyways) explain your situation and tell them that you are giving it to someone for free, the worst that can happen is that they tell you no but at least your tried, and if they let you please please please think of my grl ACC :D

    Good luck! I know the official policy is no transfers, but they have made exceptions a few times the last couple of years. I hope it works out for you and ACC. She's a really great fan and I hope this works out for you both.

    +1 I personally, would be giving it to someone who lives in chicago who missed out rather than someone who is going to see them a handful of times this tour anyways (assuming ACC is the traveling type)

    If you can pull this off then it's good that someone could use them. If not then it's just one of those shitty things you have to swallow.

    Hope you get better. take care.

    agree with you and usamamasan. people abused the policy, so it was changed to "absolutely no transfers." if they are going to change it again, it should be across the board.

    of course, no one is happy the guy is sick or that tickets that we value so much might go to waste, but this risk is inherent in buying 10C tix. same goes for tickets someone might buy through the new "paperless ticketing" system for other bands. 10C gave an inch a few years ago, but people took a foot, and now they have to be hard on this policy.
