    this is not true....

    people were shut out in 06...

    not everyone gets a ticket.....

    Other than MSG.....I dont know of anyone getting shut out becasue they sold out too quick.

    I know,id be there like a shot if i didnt live so far away.
    Me too!!Travelled to Europe "Berne" In 2006 then to Wembley last year --just cannot afford anymore at the moment --and I am soooooo sad I hope its not too long before they come to Japan again!!!!I am waiting full of hope--even then when they come here to get to the nearest venue I have a 2 hour train journey then a 2 hour plane ride.But ALL WELL WORTH it!!!!!
    The waiting drove me mad!!!

    Its not unlimited.

    But there were times when the 10c would take all orders and if they didnt have 10c seats, they would get regular seats and give them to 10 c members.

    this happened a few times in 98 and 2000 I believe.

    Which shows did quartertoten get shut out of?

    Were they NY or Boston?

    no...

    im pretty sure it was philly
    cleveland
    grand rapids.....

    from what i remember....

    the fan club is only allowed 10% of the venue.....18,000 seats=1,800 fan club seats......

    im pretty sure this is the arrangement they have with ticketmaster....at least it was in 06....

    See, i bought Grand Rapids several hours after they went onsale. (I went to a library on my lunch break because I didt have internet access at work). When I got home from work, tickets were still available.

    Im not sure about Philly, cause I didnt try for those.

    But I was contemplating Cleveland, and those were definitely available when I got home from work, which was about 6-8 hours after they went onsale.

    I ended up not getting Cleveland, and opted for Cincy and Pittsburgh instead.

    And I had zero probs with Chicago tix.

    WTF? I was able to get GR with no probs. Although, its a smaller venue than the other arenas on that tour.

    How did you get shut out?

    I got them well after they went onsale, and I had no probs logging on.

    i was never able to complete the purchase.

    thought i was close numerous times, but it just never went through.

    i was pretty much like WTF?

    Is it possible this was an isolated incident and not a site-wide problem?

    Again, when I got home from work, they were still available.

    Sux man.

    How was I able to get them so much later then?

    And so easily?

    the only times I have had trouble getting tickets were for the Vic and for EV solo.

    I don't remember many shows ever selling out, except for the special ones. Even the Gorge Tickets were on sale for a quite awhile.

    Obviously people with bad memories, or newbies that weren't around on the last tour are the ones that are worried. I like that I can sit back and watch this all from the sidelines :)

    Thats a pretty good t-shirt to wear at the shows.

    "Shows sold out....people got shut out."

    Kinda reminds me of, "Bush Lied, people died."

    Sucks for Qto10.

    Your not senile. Youve always been that way.
