    just saying hopefully those people that complain leave...we should all be happy that PJ is on Tour.

    When I gave my $5 dollars in 93' for a membership, I thought 5 bucks is a pretty good deal for a newsletter and inside news about the band. Pretty cool. Then later when it went to $20 for a membership, I thought 20 bucks was a pretty good deal for a newsletter, contests, a vinyl single, and inside news about the band. Then they started giving us first dibs on the best seats in the house. All for 20 bucks. Dude, the love and respect they have for us is priceless. I'd pay $50 for a membership and that would still be a good deal. So like everyone else is sayin, c-ya. I might move up a bit in seniority. Shit happens sometimes when it comes online ticket buying. It happened to me in 2003. The servers crashed then and couldnt get 10c tickets but I still ended up going to the show. No it wasnt the best seat in the house, but I never once thought about giving up my membership. And the fans in back are just as cool as the fans in front.

    the more people complain..the more reason 10C has to not offer fanclub tickets anymore...
    I hope this never happens.

    The day they stop offering tickets is the day a number in the 400's is one of the best still paying each year.

    I'm always amazed at how much people complain around here. I've been shut out for shows and yes I was disappointed but I got over it. In fact, not only did I get over it, I found alternative ways to get tickets, i.e, fellow 10C members, ebay, ticketmaster.....

    If you want to go to high demand shows like NY, consider yourself lucky if you score 10C seats. It's not like all MSG seats have been reserved for fan club and everyone just decided they didn't want you there. :roll:

    And, if they don't charge for memberships that's more people you have to compete with for the few 10C seats that are available.

    I have been shut out on three occasions, but all the times I have gotten tickets have been great. I don't understand this "I am entitled" attitude. This is way better than when we used to have to mail separate envelopes with a return envelope for each show.

    news flash! The band does not really care about any of us! To quote a bandmember "if you don't like it, then dont listen to it!"- that pretty much sums it up. Just because we like a band that for 15 years had a lead singer who was like an "open wound" doesn't mean that any of us have a personal relationship with an of them. Get over yourselves! IT'S JUST A ROCK AND ROLL CONCERT! :evil:

    Thanks for the tip. I'll keep that all in mind next time they release an album. Maybe I'll start file sharing in honor of its release rather than shelling out the money I have been spending on their music.


    As is your right as a consumer! Again, I dont think they will give it a second of thought.....they have proven to themselves and the world that they are legitimately one of the most enduring, important and respected bands in rock and roll- and they have made juuuusssst a bit of cash along the way. So, do what you want....
    I hold the pain, release me!
