    I just feel the absolute best seats in the house should be truely based on seniority. My number is decent, but not ultra low. I'm not one of the people who have been to 100 shows, but at the 20+ that I have been to, row 1 or 2 does have a different feel than row 8 or 10. They are all great seats, but still just doesn't seem right that someone could come in and join right before a tour announcement and win front row. Just my opinion.

    When did the start the lottery? I'd like to figure out how many shows I am 0-fer. I'm probably at least 0-12. I think they should cross your name off the list once you win. (maybe you can win once for 1-2, and once for 9-10). Give the rest of us hope that if we keep going to concerts we will eventually win.

    If I could sit in the front row, I could discreetly show Ed my "43 shows without Oceans" sign, and not block anyone's view. Then maybe the entire arena could benefit from hearing that rare gem!

    On the other hand, why give the same people the best seats night after night? They did nothing special except send $5 to the 10C, when some of us were too young. I begged my parents to let me join, but they thought it was a waste of money. That makes me no less of a fan. In a way I'm kinda glad my parents taught me how to be responsible with money.

    I'm normally with you, I'm completely against redistribution of wealth, and think that if you work hard and earn something it shouldn't be taken from you and given to someone else. But, seeing as the low number members didn't really have to work to be given their number, and seeing as I get the short end of the stick on everything (i.e. glad I went to college to pay for everyone else's healthcare), I think it's time I see the benefit of socialism! Redistribute the seat wealth!
