    Personally, I've really gotta thank the 10C!!

    Everything I ordered since joining the fan club in November has come on time, I got my Deep, and most importantly I feel lucky to have gotten through for not one but both MSG shows, which will be my very first PJ shows of what I know will be many to come!!!

    So thanks, 10C, and see you at the Garden!!

    I've only got shut out of tickets once (MSG 2 this year) but have gotten them like 15 times so I can't complain. Nowadays, I think I just stay in the fanclub so I could eventually take my membership number to the grave with me...but I don't get excited over the newsletter or christmas single like I used to.

    I have a pretty high number but when ev played at the tower 10c set me up with tenth row. It was unbelievable! I got tickets for last night at the spectrum thanks to the 10c and now MSG II ! ! ! Some of the greatest nights of my life have been compliments of the 10 club. Long live pearl jam. Their music has been inspirational to me since I was a child, and thank you 10 club for setting us up with tix !
  • pandorapandora Posts: 21,855
    I've had success getting tix from 10C and my most precious memories because of 10C.
    It is a way generous fan club, helping with hotels and parking plans to make our times spent with PJ better and go more smoothly.
    They look our for us. Thats really nice. A good example is the recent TM presale for those who had trouble with MSG. That's taking care of us.
    Also I appreciate the community and finding others who feel like I do about Pearl Jam, that has made my life happier. The loving positive people here have been an inspiration. I learn from them and admire their thoughts and words.
    It's this sharing that makes 10C special and I very much appreciate it all.

    This is my third time ordering tickets thru 10c.
    Each time I’ve had no problem. All shows in VA/DC area. So not a super high demand.
    There have been glitches but nothing so bad as not being able to get tickets.

    94 10c even offered to send me a limo. I’m disabled. Wasn’t able to go. Parents said no. So by the time I joined the club again in 06 I’ve tried to cash in that rain check on the limo, and have done some embarrassing things. Aahh, the embarrassing things I’ve gone thru in the name of pearl jam. :roll:
    In 08 10c finally hooked me up with front row!
    So from there on out, no more desperate escapades. I’m chilling! 8-)
    Thank you ten club!

    each tour 10c gets better with their ticket selling.

    wow! letterman show was free. i didn't know that. pretty cool.

    I refer to those in front...
  • I got 3 of 4 at the Spectrum through the 10c. The night I missed I was able to snag from TM and I have to say they were the best 4 shows and I feel fortunate that I live in Philly to see the boys 4 times and that the 10c arranged tickets and great seats for their fans. Keep it coming.

    On a seperate note, Cole Hamels scares me.... 7-5 Yanks...

    Got to see ev at the wiltern,about 10 rows back. My brother and I had better seats than the incubus boys and Phil Jackson. Won the lottery at the last LA show last year, 5 rows from stage, right down the middle.

    Much love for the 10C! Every time I see the boys I am grateful for the opportunity!
  • Bump, tired of the negativity let's show some love.

  • I've never had a bad experience with the 10c... ever.

    I pay twenty dollars a year to have the gift of having a solid chance to get seats to see my favorite band play... good seat...

    While I know it's likely going to be late, every year when I open my mail box for the Holiday Single is like Christmas in March... or April, or July.. but days that feel like childhood Christmas when you're 30 are few and far between and that is one of mine...

    I'll be hitting shows 6, 7, and 8 in about a month... and 7 and 8 will be the first shows within my home state that i didn't drive at least six hours to see... because of the 10c I've been to cities I likely would have never visited, met some absolutely amazing people, seen some mind blowing performances, gotten plenty of sweet PJ swag...

    I've also had the opportunity to help a few fellow members out, and that feeling may be pretty close the the best of all...

    Viva la 10C!

    I joined about a year before the 2003 tour.

    I had my best seats pre-2003 for the Indy show. When I went to Detroit 1 2003 it was not nearly as good as Indy, but the band was mad at the venue and offered free lawn tickets for Detroit 2. I had zero plans of going to Detroit 2, but because of those free tickets I saw one of my best shows ever.

    In 2006, the great Grand Rapids seniority flip gave me my closest seats to date and the best show I've witnessed.

    I tried for EV tickets in 2008 for Chicago and got shutout. I didn't cry or moan. I was thankful for a chance to see him in a small venue. Better luck next time.

    I got tickets to Chicago 1 last summer and although I wasn't on the floor I had much better tickets then the general public and met some great 10 clubbers from around the country.

    Got my Indy 2010 tickets very quickly last week and I always hope I can win the lotto, but if not I know I will be up close and rock out.

    Thank you 10c!!!

    I love the Ten Club & always have. I've been a fan club junkie since I was like.. I don't know.. 5? And sending in cash to be in the Desi Arnaz Jr. fan club to get back some crappy autographed picture.

    Honestly the TC has never let me down, on the other hand, I really don't expect too much. I figure for $20 a year if "all" I get is a single that you can't buy in stores, and access to some of the coolest merchandise ever, that works for me. And oh, when they go on tour if I have a marginal chance of getting good tickets ahead of anyone else, bonus.

    Best experience ever was Albany 2003, my tickets were in the first row of the second section back, which was MUCH MUCH better than I ever expected. Yeah, the way you used to get tickets was sort of a chore... money orders only... but I've always figured, if you don't like it, don't pay the membership fee.
    I had the latest issue of Deep on my kitchen counter once and my MOM came in and read it and declared the band much cooler than she ever gave them credit for. I thought that was kind of fun.
    Couple posters I have framed in my house, too, more than once people have been like "WHERE did you get that? What kind of connections do you have??" Uh... the same that you can have, dude.

    Love them.

    all my dealings with 10c have been great. when i had an issue with merch, i sent them an email. they responded quickly & replaced my damaged merch. a couple of times its been stressful ordering tickets but thats was at venues that had a larger demand. its not 10c's fault...supply & demand. I always feel bad for the folks at 10c & embarrsed at times by some of the behavior of "the fans." Threads bitching about no tour announcements...then after theyre announced, where theyre playing...the way the PRESALE goes, ticket prices...blah, blah, blah. Its very disheartening. I think the band & 10c are very considerate & accomidating of their fans. Thats not something you find everyday.
    Be Kind, for everyone is fighting a hard battle

  • Ive been a member of the 10C since '03 and have no complaints. I have had the fortune of getting tix to most of the shows I wanted to attend. I have never had problems with any purchases or orders through this great fanclub. In 08 I got first row at Camden II and my # is in the 307XXX range. They work hard as many of us do and shouldnt be gunned down by those with negativity. Save it for Hell all you negative people. :twisted: :lol::lol::lol::lol:

    A certain tenclub worker helped me out massively re tickets for last years shep bush show and for that I will always be grateful
  • slightofjeffslightofjeff Posts: 7,762
    I don't have any big, heart-wrenching story. I've just always got the tickets I've wanted, and always been happy with my seats.

    For $25 a year, the Ten Club is a great value.

  • Hey 10c staff. I can't agree more with all of these posts. I don't expect you to be perfect nor do I expect "the process" to be flawless. You are a business that puts focus on customer service and you do it very, very well. Just like any business that deals with customer service you tend to hear all the bad stuff and don't get nearly enough pats on the back. Thanks to the OP for getting this thread in motion. I'm sure the 10c staff appreciates hearing from us.

    I know it's important to "print only when necessary" but you (10c) should print this thread and hang it proudly. Add me to the list of happy members and thanks again for all of your hard work.
