    OK I realise I'm lucky to be going to so many shows...but these allocations are bullshit - especially considering the releases they've Bern putting out.

    My mate has 3rd row foe both nights (stoked for him) and other mates had 10th & 12th rows - I'm half a dozen rows from the goddamn back.

    This is bollocks 10C! At least you could've mixed the allocations up a bit.

    whats your 10c no, leash? 350-400+?

    I'm 462xxx and got the same row as the other person here who has 462xxx

    Random my ass! If it was going to be seniority based, then tell us so we can be prepared - then no one has any issues.

    Didn't expect to start a bit of a shit-storm here! O_O

    Can you confirm that it was definitely Tupperware?

    Seriously, i'm guessing Ten Club just did a DB export of all the entries and either asked the venus to randomise them but they instead just did top to bottom perhaps.

    Whilst this sucks, I i'm glad I have 177xxx, just in case.

    Maybe they meant NO SENIORITY in regard to the tickets not necessarily being ahead of the public and up the front in a big clump...

    What were you going to prepare for knowing it was seniority based? I'm intrigued... Sound like you'd be packing supplies :lol:

    Sounds similar to last tour where people who did multiple shows in the same city had similar seats both nights. In Toronto I had row 6 the first night on the far left...then row 7 centre second night. Those near the front the first night were near the front the second night too. The only difference was EV had people going to the back of the balcony and relocating people from those seats (often non 10C people..but not always) to the front row, so very few people got front row from 10C on that tour.

    I'm not posting this as a complaint cause my number would NEVER get me 6th row for PJ unless the show was in BF nowhere or in some tiny ass town where most people who travel don't bother to attend lol.
    I'm just saying that the policy was similar....BUT we we didn't get tix near the back of the venue through 10C.

    I totally understand why people would be upset with that.

    haven't done too well thus far either with 10c :( i do appreciate the fanclub for their other efforts.. :)

    am hoping my Melb II and Adelaide I tickets are an improvement :( especially Adelaide I, hint hint 10c :lol: :P

    i know people traveled from further, but Brisbane was a pricey one for me, especially with my phone alarm failing me and spending a few extra $100's to go home after missing my original flight :shock: :?

    I am glad Someone mentioned the weird row numbering before I picked my tickets up. Thanks wozza! I'd have been gutted opening my envelope for Brissy 2.

    More than what's in Canberra that's for sure. Why is Eddie going to Canberra? I've been to both cities and Radelaide wins hands down.

    i still think that people in their home state should get better seats than the out of towners... because it's pretty special when it's your home state.

    but boo to row I two nights in a row (although yay for second night where the seats were in the middle).
    so not holding my breath for anything decent in sydney.

    sounds like the tickets are very much random tonight in Canberra.

    wonder what locations are like, so far i've heard of a few in the 3rd row.
