    but you take a chance if you give your ID to someone you don't know.
    Wait, are you making the accusation that there are 10C members that are NOT made of kittens and puppies and unicorn love?!? :shock:

    Sorry to hear about your loss, Rachel. :(

    I know of someone who was able to do this for another band who has the same policy. They went to the DMV got a new drivers license for $10. They sent the drivers license to someone and the person wore a hat to pick up the tickets.

    This can be risky. For a few reasons. One, if you get caught by 10 club. Two, someone else has an old drivers license of yours.

    I am not encouraging it, but it has worked in the past for other bands.
    I have heard that this works for the 10c as well

    RISKY move! I would avoid this if your 10C membership means anything to you!

    I may be in the same situation for the Halloween show and I have a fairly low number. I was/am going to write the 10club and ask them to give them to charity or someone worthwhile if they would be so kind. I feel like you, I don't care about eating the money, I just want to make sure someone gets to enjoy the tickets.

    This is the EXACT reason I bought my tickets for Seattle through Ticketmaster, then I bought my flight, if something came up, I could get rid of my tickets without any problem. Lucky for me I am going to Seattle, but unless I am planning on seeing Pearl Jam on the east coast I just by my tickets from Stubhub, Ticketmaster, Craigslist, Ebay, they all make more sense to me than buying them from 10 Club and having something come up and being in that situation, especially the way the economy is right now, I just can't afford it, it's pretty easy to get tickets to any show through Ticketmaster if you just search for single tickets and not pairs.

    Oh and to the OP, this is not a "tragedy" that's when they tell you you have cancer, your relative has just died, you're paralyzed from the waste down, not being able to go to a concert and losing the money doesn't really qualify as a "tragedy" in my book, upsetting, sad, bummer, yes, "tragedy" NO!

    i asked the 10c the same question today... knowing full well what the answer would be regarding transfers would be, but there was no harm in trying hey... 8-)
    i have had to eat the cost of a lot more than 2 shows... i was already prepared to do this :?
    it was not the money i was worried about, more letting down my friends who had my spares. :(
    I know it sucks!
    I'm sorting out Mike and might be able to help Tanya and Neil (not sure yet), but I can't do anything for Patricia or Charlie.
    At least hopefully will resell the other LAs... good thing in the end I booked those in my name!

    I understand that people abused the system, but there's ways to safeguard against that..
    It's not like anyone is going to get an 'upgrade' to your number! :roll:
