Senority Glitch in Seattle Last night?

Zod

I tried a few searches and didn't see a thread on this last night. There was a bit of a glitch with senority and tickets last night. Somehow a whole section of numbers ended up in the wrong section. I'm 164xxx and I ended up in section 113 row 10. According to the guy sitting behind me (as he was survey other people during the afternoon, when he was dissapointed with his tickets), around the 160xxx give our take 10-30 thousand higher or lower, got relocated?

This theory was that it skipped on the floor from about 130xxx to 180xxxish. And people with 174's were row 16 on the floor, while 13xxxx's were in the wings (but a closer wing section then us?).

It wasn't like that show a few years ago with reverse senority. I was like they forget to allocation a blocked of 10c numbers and added them on the end. There were people with 3xx.xxx numbers with better tickets.

oh well, I thought i'd let some higher senority members know why there tickets on night 2 were probably better than night 1.

I'm 112xxx and was row 11 both nights.

hopefully they decided that after row 15 they'll go to the wings, because my number (128xxx) usually gets me rows 15-20 on the floor at more popular shows, but after row 15, I'd rather be on the wing.

I'd mostly agree with that. I was row 20 the first night, and i'm fairly tall but about 5 rows ahead of me a taller guy blocked my view of the middle of the stage. Everytime I tried to look around him he'd move the same way, even worse he'd hold up his camera for a whole song and really block the whole stage.

That being said, section 113 is the last section (3rd one away from the stage), just before the arena curves. I was rather expecting if in the wings, to be in one of the closer sections.

It's good the glitch didn't affect everyone. It seems to have affected a specific block of fan club numbers.

Ah well, can't win all the time I might of even like these better. It would of been the equivelent of row 35 on the floor, except I was 10 rows up, which makes the stage smaller, but you don't have to look over anyones heads

ms.honeymeister

yeah we noticed that too. one of my friends who had a 17xxxx number was in section 103 like row 14. i have a 206xxx and moved up 8 rows on the floor. it does sound like a block of numbers were misplaced and ended up on the side several sections back from the stage.

we were wondering what happened... if it was just my friends or if it was a bigger problem. looks like a bigger issue.

can anyone from 10c clear up what happened?

I thought it was strange that I was row 23 the first night and 15 the second night. I had the same neighbors for both shows. It was awesome to move up 8 rows, plus row 15 was a big walkway aisle. My # is 179xxx. Must have not have been as many request for night two, but if you are already in Seattle, why not go to both shows?

I don't think it's a glitch as all arena shows I've been to the last 2 years (DC, MSG, Chicago), I ended up in the wings at the curved section on the side of the stage. This is with member #163xxx....I noticed people with 180xxx were on the floor at a lot of these shows...

I am 124xxx and was in on the floor Stone's side row 12 both nights. Different seats, but same row.

I believe that was me behind youast night. Yeah a bit of a head scratcher there. I emailed ten club about it, they must be too busy right now to respond. Oh well, shows kicked ass.

yah that was really odd.. I'd understand it if they had comp tickets for fam/friends and it pushed us behind where our seats were on night 1.

but according to your stats, there were people with higher fan club numbers in those rows.. so it didn't make much sense.

ah well.. helluva good show.. too bad I'm not going to vancouver :(

Well explain how we were on the floor with primo seats night one and then got put near the back of the arena night two. Seems like a mistake to me.

juliefer

it was definitely a mistake. it seemed like we all had 16x xxx to 180 xxx as far as i could tell at first, but the guy behind me had a 92xxx and the people beside me and in front of me had bought their tickets from ticketmaster that day.

i could see much better last night than from my row 22 floor seats night one though, so that was cool. and it was sort of fun being with a few people that hadn't seen PJ before.

there was a small thread about this in the given to fly section, seems like our seats in section 113 were same seats that the people across the arena with 300xxx had, and the section beside us (closer to the stage) had 190xxx type numbers.

What up G!! Did you and Billy get a chance to hang last night?

As for my seats...I am a 185XX and the tickets I gave to my friends to use were in row 16 AA...Or at least that is what they told me! :-)

bruce

It was a mistake. The 10 Club just emailed me back and said it happended to a large group of is.

Down1

My number is 162XXX and we had row 10...not sure if that was a lottery winner, but that's usually around where i am most shows...I had row 19 Monday, and was in Row 11 for the Gorge a few years back...

BF25394

Yes-- I was also a "victim" of this. I am 163xxx and was put in Row 9 of Section 101. I was able to meet up with a guy who is 303xxx, and his seats were one section closer to the stage (Section 128) and five rows closer to the floor.

To add insult to injury, I had a fan club member who had committed to buy my extra ticket (I traveled up from L.A.), and he bailed on me three hours before the show when he saw how disappointing my seats were.

Hey bud! No I didn't get a chance to hit up Bill. :( Too much going on. Is he coming to PTown?

Those were good seats. I would have been closer if it wasn't for the mistake. Oh well. Ten club made it right. Those shows kicked ass regardless of your seats.

Well that sucks. What a jerk.

Well, I consider myself lucky then. My number is 106XXX and I was in row 8 both nights. I was kinda hoping for a little closer as I am usually in row 4-5, but I understand the hometown shows sell more 10C tickets. I'm just glad I didn't accidentally end up in a back section!

This may not be the place to complain about this but in light of you saying that you are usually in row 4/5 I'll express my irritation that a person in my office was spouting off about going to PJ Tuesday night with a buddy that works at a local radio station and they sat in the 4th row. I'm wondering how many radio/media people get these great tickets? My number isn't amazing but i was in row 24 AA and thought perhaps I should've gotten better if this wasn't the case. Hoping for better in Vancouver tomorrow...

the 10c does not get every seat in each row

and I would guess that there was a very long list of friends that requested tickets through the band
doesnt excuse the 10c seating mishap though

GivenTo...

Our member # is 150xxx. We were row 17 centre night one, then section 115 row 9 night two. I tried not to panic at these second night seats, but they turned out to be pretty good. (Kind of in line with row 12/13, and gave us a good view of all the arena and stage.) Row 17 is as far back as I would like to be, being only 5"6. So both were good in their own ways. Glad to know that it was some kind of glitch. Bring on Vancouver and Portland!!

I have a 167xxx number. I was in BB (row 21) on night 1. Then when i saw that I had a section on the side, I knew something had to have happened because every time I attend 2 consecutive shows at an arena for Pealr Jam, I pretty much always end up in the same area as I was the previous night. I by no means let it ruin my night. It would have taken a lot for my night to have been ruined after that show!

BigHub74

That was me who bailed on you Tuesday Brian, and it was partly the dissappointment of the seats. But not the entire reason. I felt terrible about doing it because that is not the type of person I am. I am on a fixed income, my arm is paralyzed, my jeep broke down the sunday before the show on monday. So I already was out 100.00 for my train ticket, 100.00 for my hotel, 148.00, for my night 1 tickets. That doesn't even scratch the surface of what its gonna cost me to get my jeep fixed. Aside from the fact that I have tickets to the Portland show. So yes I was dissappointed with the seats and so i made a very difficult decision to not buy your ticket, and go home to take care of the problems I have here. If you were unable to sell your ticket and the 74 dollars is that important to you then I'll try to reimburse when I have the money.
Sincerely
Me

There definitely was something up. My number is 163XXX. I flew in from Texas for these shows and night one I was in row 20 BB. Then the next night it was on the back wing. I do not get to use my fanclub tickets much since they never come to Texas so it was disappointing but the show was great--it was just as someone else said you could have gotten those seats for less from Ticketmaster. Combined though a great collection of songs and shows and happy to see them in Seattle and can't wait to see them in Austin for ACL.

they can't right now, they're very busy listening to their 10C editions of the CD and Vinyl.

PDXPat

My 10c # is 267,XXX and for night 1 I was in Sec 101 Row 12. Alot of people with 10c #'s between 330,XXX-400,XXX had tickets in Sections 114 and 128, both of which are closer to the stage than Sec 101. Not a big deal, but I'm wondering if anyone else with a 10c # in the mid to high 200's ended up in Sec 101 as well.

Again, the Ten Club already acknowledged that There was a mistake. They responded to my email saying a group of ten club members were mistankenly put in the wrong seats.... Mostly those of us in the 160-180 range.

From the floor to the sides...you've been BACKSPACED!!

So I guess those of us in the 160-180 range will be rows 1-5 tomorrow ?!

(amazing show on Tuesday, from any angle)

I'm 279XXX and was in 101, row 14 night one and 128, row 2 night two. I originally thought maybe they didn't sell as many 10C tix to night two, but realized most people who travel go to both shows. The mix-up by 10C explains a lot. Killer shows that really complimented each other quite well. Just happy to have been there with great seats from 10C!
