    I was happy with seats both nights.

    Night 1 we were second row in lounge. This was on a friends number in the low 400. Only dissapponting thing was not being able to stand due to 'safety' concerns. But overall excellent view, better than some in the stalls.

    Night two was on my TC number #309xxx and we were 8 rows Stalls. We had friends who was TC Members infront of us which made the experience even better. Also couple next to us had TC tickets and was huge fans aswell.

    Overall I was happy with the tickets, and would still get my tickets with TC.

    Got row B for Melb1 thru ticketmaster, then row S from 10C for Melb2.

    Loved both shows, am just happy to have gotten tickets.

    I think the venue did mess up a bit in Brisbane and it was seniority based. All the rest were definitely random though.
    ....
    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.
    I know what happened... Same deal as the posters, where they got different artists to contribute.

    The Tenclub got each state's smartest mathematicians to write random number generators to distribute the 10club tickets...

    When EV came through Toronto in 2008 I had Row 12 one night and 13 the other. There was someone I noticed at the shows who I see at every Toronto show and he had 1st row both nights.

    I honestly believe there is noting shady going on when it comes to how 10c distributes their tickets for the Eddoe Vedder shows. I just think that some people, like myself, are just naturally gifted with bad luck. :)

    Shows were both fantastic and I would have been just as happy if I was up in the 2nd balcony. I'm trying for a show this coming tour. I don't care if I'm twice as far back this time. I'll appreciate just being there (if I can get in!)

    Well I must say I had a mix of seats. Some high, some low, some front row... Was good in a way to mix it up for such small shows. But I agree, not to have scattered seats throught the venue, or at least have them close-ish :) some were definitely in the rafters. Worst tickets I had i'd purchased myself through TM... Sorry ticket buddy haha :)

    Please note my opinions are only based on the small theatre shows :lol:

    I'm thinking that at each show the tickets were all put into a bin or bucket, someone shuffled them around, then drew them out and stuffed them into the envelopes which had the 10c membership numbers typed on them. :|

    Row C in the lounge for EV on Sunday night in Adelaide.

    Was momentarily disappointed when I opened the envelope but we had a great time up there in leather-couch comfort.

    If I was going to be anywhere other than right up the front, it'd be there.

    I'm pretty sure they played a game of chicken shit bingo and had everyone's ten club number written on the ground, started with the front row tickets, and what ever ten club number the chook shat on got those tickets, they continued the process to all tickets and number were allocated.
    condescending and sarcastic since 1980

    And they're doing exactly the same with 10c tickets for the US tour :roll:

    By the sounds of it Ten club seats at the Perth show last night were randomly allocated to within the first 10 rows of the stage, so why wasn't this the case for ALL of the Australian shows?? :x :x

    Well first 15 rows maybe? I'm just having another whinge because I know people at shows before Perth got rows from the back or balcony seats. Anyway, I'm happy for the Perth peeps.

    I expect that seat allocation differs from venue to venue. Just because Perth allows 10C to take the first 15 rows doesnt mean that Melbourne will do the same.
