Doh! Let my membership lapse as well and got sec. 313 for a 422 membership number.. Montreal I was middle arena first couple of rows lodge. Chicago must be popular and have a lot of us in the building tonight!
I got section 306. Flew in from Cali and it's my birthday. Wouldve liked to have been closer but am looking forward to celebrating with all the hardcore PJ family.
to all those people who are saying people are whining, i thought we were free to state our opinions about what was going on. there ARE issues with the way the tix are distributed, there ARE better ways to do things. I love PJ but that doesn't mean that the ten club is infalible, people should give feedback and constuctive criticism if they are not happy with things, how else can things improve?
At some point between the 2006 tour and 2009 my membership number was popped up from 26XXXX to 40XXXX. I'm section 317, row 2 when I was on the floor in 2006. So I at least a view of the stage with evidently a higher membership number than those of you behind the stage.
This is coming from someone who saw them from 5 feet away at the HOB in 2005. I got dumped for spending the $1000 on that ticket. I'd hope that after all of that I could get my # corrected.
I didn't read every post thuroughly, but, has anyone noticed on Touring Fans how many 10c people are in attandance for tonight???
While it's not 100% accurate, the Chicago shows have FAR more folks in attendance ....

Hey Buddy I'm there with you section 334! Eddie I followed you to Hawaii all three shows not "lucky" enough to get tenclub tickets but callled the theatres directly got 6th row, 1st row, and 10th row. I am so disappointed in these tenclub tickets. Why be a member for years when I could have purchased from ticketmaster and got the same seat? Who knows maybe Eddie will pull us nosebleed seaters backstage like Dave Matthews did with his warehouse club members here last summer. Now that would be cool. Tomorrow night I paid a ticketbroker so I know I have a great seat. But I paid big because I'm a loyal fan!!! Tell me why I should join the tenclub again???
both are further back than usual, neither is complaining one bit but it does seem there are a lot of members at these shows so not the typical seat locations most are used to. My buddies quote.......

baby boomers selling you rumors of their history, forcing youth away from the truth of what's real today.
I have a friend at the show with a 36XXX and she got 3rd row

I'm with you on this one. I know the history and understand why Pearl Jam formed the 10 club for their loyal fans. This is what is posted under ten club tickets:
Seat location is not revealed until tickets are collected on the day of the show. We reserve the best seats in the house for fan club tickets, starting from the first rows on the floor and extending back. We also reserve the side sections closest to the stage when necessary. All Ten Club tickets are for reserved seating unless otherwise announced.
Ten Club tickets are for reserved seating and allocated by membership seniority, with the exception of rows 1-2 and rows 9-10 which will be used for random allocation./quote]
This is my issue: section 317 is the best seat in the house? I am a new member, 412xxx FC#, and if these are the tickets I deserve for being a new member, so be it. However, I would have loved to have known that when my credit card was charged on May 4th that my 2 x $66 plus fee pre-sale ten club tickets, were in section 317. I would have said, fine, but no thanks, I will go the general sale route on Saturday. I know I would have gotten better tixs for the same price, plus I would not have been so deluded for 3 months in thinking I had decent tickets.
I'm on Wilco worlds email list and get the pre-sale emails from them. While they aren't playing the UC, I LOVE how they handle their pre-sale. Even though it is only UIC pavillion, they still sell it out quickly, with dibs on the good seats to their fans. And I know where I am sitting in October.
ummmm...is the box office staff pulling some fast ones? :? 10c doesnt allocate seats behind the stage.
i went to Boston 2004 and had 10C seats behind the stage... 14 rows from the stage...
it was pretty decent actually!!!
My thoughts on this whole thread are as follows:
I do hear ya on this one. That doesn't seem normal. The ONLY explanation I can think of is that they had a lot of 10C seats. And these were the first US shows announced, so I would think that alot of 10C members would have wanted to go to this show.
Hopefully, we'll find out after/during the show if any non-10C members got better seats.
In Toronto on Friday, a girl and some deuchbag had better seats than me... they got it through his company. I've been member since 2002... wasn't thrilled about that.. but what can ya do.
My only hope for you is that the show is just fuckin' awesome and it doesn't matter where you're sitting...
better in the arena than in the parking lot.... or on the thread watching the setlist come in as I will be doing.

so it's 10c's fault you didn't bother to read the terms and agreement and the 10c policies?
I have a friend at the show with a 36XXX and she got 3rd row
1-2 are lottery so thats the right spot for her. 36xxx will never get worse than 3rd row MAYBE fourth but doubtful.
exactly- she's always gotten 1st row until last year

This is my perspective as someone with a 400xxx+ number (I know, not that anyone asked):
I buy 10 Club tickets for the shot at winning the lottery. I know that, otherwise, I will not have great seats. While I did not get great seats through Comcast for the 10/31 show, I figure odds are that those seats will be about equivalent to the 10 Club tickets I get for 10/31 (four of us are going, in case you were wondering).
But, here's the thing: I got public sale tickets to last year's shows, well after the tickets went on sale. The seats were not "great" -- in Camden, we were in the last row of the pavilion. And you know what? -- We had a freaking amazing time.
Maybe it's just me, but I don't need to be close enough for Ed to sweat on me to enjoy myself. As long as my number does not mean that we spend 10/31 sitting out by the box office with headphones, I'll be happy.
All those who seek to destroy the liberties of a democratic nation ought to know that war is the surest and shortest means to accomplish it.
so it's 10c's fault you didn't bother to read the terms and agreement and the 10c policies?/quote]
Norm, I'm not following you on this one. I previewed my posts before I submitted them. I am savvy on the terms and agreement and the 10c policies and don't blame anyone. I guess my interpretation doesn't jive with yours.
I am 42 years old with a bunch of kids and love to go to shows. I've no pblm paying the $ and have had good experiences in the past with 10c tickets and pearl jam shows, especially the HOB benefit. This was not good and I am voicing that. I've found the tone of all these posts to be mellow, with most people passing on their experiences and opinions. No laying of blame, at least in the posts I've read.
Reason I am still on the computer? My husband is the 10c member, I signed him up and take care of all the arrangements. Couldn't find a sitter so he is with a buddy having a blast, listening to Bad Religion (who I love)- regardless of the seat location. He was the one who couldn't believe I paid that much money for those seats and is why I came to this forum to get some insight.

Enjoy the show Norm!
i guess i'm a little confused...you are upset with your seats yet your 10c # is very high...were you expecting better? this show has alot of 10c members with very low numbers so recent members unfortunately are getting not so great seats...sucks i know but that's the chance you take when buying tix from 10c
sorry you couldn't find a sitter....i would love to be at the show regardless of where i would be sitting...bad religion and pj..that's a win-win!!
my deal is that I went on after my husband picked up the tixs and could have gotten better seats via ticketmaster this afternoon. (and would have bought them for myself and a friend if I could have found the sitter!)
Oh well. It's been a great concert season in Chicago, elton john at Wrigley, followed by 3 days of Pitchfork Fest-the National and Flaming Lips!- guess I have already spent too much $$ for babysitters! But its been worth it
and Dave Grohl at the Metro!
PS Have you been to the UC? 317 are my great blackhawk tixs-great for hockey, good for a show, but not when you think being a 10cc would get you in the 200 level. live and learn
I think the people who are complaining are doing so because they figured even though they might be far away with a high number, they would be able to see the show. Being behind the stage in the 300 level no less, you're not gonna see much. Those are like the seats they sell on Ticketmaster, when all the other seats have sold out and they squeeze in more people by "opening up the back" if I recall. Wouldn't most people be in the 200 or 300 level somewhere in FRONT of the stage?
I sat behind the stage once at MSG 2003, think it was 2nd level, and it was actually kind of cool...to do once. You get to see the crowd react, and get to see Matt playing, get to see the setlist spoilers (if you have binoculars), get to see the celebs on the side-stage. It was kind of cool. But like one poster said, those were ticketmaster tickets. I wouldn't expect to be behind the stage with ten club tickets, no matter how bad my number. They could have easily said "we have way too many people going to this show, and have reserved tickets behind the stage; there is a chance you may be seated behind the stage with a partial view" and offered voluntary refunds (kind of like San Francisco 2006 when it went GA after the original sale).

Oh well. It's been a great concert season in Chicago, elton john at Wrigley, followed by 3 days of Pitchfork Fest-the National and Flaming Lips!- guess I have already spent too much $$ for babysitters! But its been worth it
and Dave Grohl at the Metro!
PS Have you been to the UC? 317 are my great blackhawk tixs-great for hockey, good for a show, but not when you think being a 10cc would get you in the 200 level. live and learn
I sat behind the stage once at MSG 2003, think it was 2nd level, and it was actually kind of cool...to do once. You get to see the crowd react, and get to see Matt playing, get to see the setlist spoilers (if you have binoculars), get to see the celebs on the side-stage. It was kind of cool. But like one poster said, those were ticketmaster tickets. I wouldn't expect to be behind the stage with ten club tickets, no matter how bad my number. They could have easily said "we have way too many people going to this show, and have reserved tickets behind the stage; there is a chance you may be seated behind the stage with a partial view" and offered voluntary refunds (kind of like San Francisco 2006 when it went GA after the original sale).

none. there was a big backdrop, and the seats behind the stage were closed off.
side stage, yes. behind stage, no.
now that that's settled, I'm off to bed. 30th bday tomorrow, gotta get to work early, and seeing some band tomorrow night. hope theyre decent.
