Yes I know we were told they were going to be random ... but I didn't think it would be that random and I still assumed they would be close to the stage.

    Also I don't have any use for the Singles because I don't have a record player. In fact I gave them all away last Wednesday night in Newcastle and they were used in the Fundraiser raffle. :)


    Did u keep your buttons one??

    Oh that's right... I've kept the 2009 single mostly because I like the cover. :)

    Give us this day my front row seat,
    and forgive us our requests for songs we know he won't play,
    as we forgive those who backstage trespass without us,
    and lead us not into temptation,
    but deliver us to EV.

    Amen.

    Sounds as though 10 club ticket allocation is random again then.

    They definitely seemed to be by seniority at the Brisbane shows though.

    Hmmm considering getting normal tickets for the next shows (whenever they hopefully may be!) as my TC tix last night were in the LOUNGE! Dont get me wrong, I was just happy to be there for a very magical show... but I could have gotten better tix through ticketmaster (as I had the night before!)... Random yes... but please TC - random in the selection of the BEST SEATS would be nice... OK whinge over... Now to bask in the afterglow of an amazing EV show :)

    I think no matter where I was sitting, I would have enjoyed it :) And Im glad you see my point!!! :) Its just frustrating when you have been a member for so many years and you are seated in the "gods" and then in the merch queue there was a lady who had seats in the stalls who said to her partner "so who IS eddie vedder anyway" - WTF?!?!?! :evil:

    i got four row from stage on thursday night and my mate got 3rd row in the lounge upstairs on friday which kind of sucked because your werent allowed to stand up in those seats because of the low rail at the front. but it was great to be at both shows.

    I think the venue did mess up a bit in Brisbane and it was seniority based. All the rest were definitely random though.

    Just luck of the draw and some strategic ticket buying/swapping and you can usually end up with ok seats.

    I think random is good but it would have been better if those random seats were still all in one area. Not spread through the entire venue.

    I have a friend who has been a member for 17 years and used 10C for 1 show and got 3rd row from the back upstairs.

    Luck of the draw.
