Can 10C release the ticketmaster pre-sale password to PJ fans, like they did for Chugg pre-sale tickets during the Australian tour? This would be very much appreciated because I'm shocked to miss out on EV in NY 2011. :shock:

    Please explain this to me:

    (links to eBay removed)

    How are tickets to see EV already being scalped at prices of around $1000.00 ? This is very upsetting because real fans are missing out and once upon a time stopping this bs used to be pearl jam's passion. Are these 10C tickets? I believe the perfect gig is Ed playing to a crowd of real pearl jam fans who don't abuse the 10C privileges of pre-sale tickets to these shows.

    I would appreciate someone explaining to me the hows and whys of this morally wrong behaviour.

    no its not 10c tickets..10c gets 10% -15% of the tickets of a venue ..the rest is out there ..10c tickets you dont know where is in the venue,seat,row, till the day of the show..

    Yes, I knew that 10C tickets were a surprise. I am very confused about all of this and I hate scalpers with passion.

    That pisses me off after trying for 2 hours today with no success that some asshole can just go sell them for that much when many of us here wanted them. That is ridiculous. I really feel bad for anyone who would have to shell that kinda money out. I wouldn't give them the satisfaction.

    I totally agree - do not buy these tickets that support dishonest activity. This goes against the morals of PJ, EV and 10C.

    Well, to be absolutely honest, I'd say the perfect gig in this case would be Ed playing for a crowd of Eddie Vedder (solo) fans. ;)



    Aaanyway, scalpers suck. :x

    Season ticket holders for the venues, making a profit by letting scalpers sell them and probably scalpers who will score ticketmaster tix at the public sale and are guaranteed this.

    Ed and 10C and the venues work hard to keep this from happening but they can not control free enterprise,
    no matter how slimey.

    We play the lottery...never know .... if we win I'm at every concert whatever the cost!

    any updates on the password?
  • merrilcmerrilc Posts: 54
    No password updates, but I encourage people to share it via PM or email to increase the opportunity for pj fans to get a ticket. I just need one to NY (my email is <!-- e --><a href="mailto:merrilc@gmail.com">merrilc@gmail.com</a><!-- e -->)

    Yeah please share!! F the scalpers, let's buy out all the pre-sale tix and make a statement. On the plus side, I bought Ten Club tix for EV the last 2 times he toured and my sister found better seats through ticketmaster both times. She was sure to rub it in my face. So there is hope for some great seats still!

    Someone ripped my face off!
    I am mine!

    It appears that a pre-sale will occur on Thursday 31 March. I understand that this will be through ticketmaster but I could be wrong

    see link
    http://www.ticketmaster.com/search?tm_l ... search.y=0

    I think we should share it amongst 10C members who missed out on 10C pre sale.

    what about the citibank presale password for the wang? thats a whole different story
  • zmanzman Posts: 502
    i got a citi card that i use all the time for shows, yet good old citibank hasnt sent me anything but a bill.
  • merrilcmerrilc Posts: 54
    There is certainly a presale of tickets, I dont know any more details but it is advertised on the ticketmaster website. We should take care of each other and pass it on if/when it becomes known.
  • boxorbagmanboxorbagman Posts: 51
    yea i need the philly presale password....please pm me :D
  • KDH12KDH12 Posts: 2,096
    I expect to get the Chicago password today

    but I do not expect it to come for 10C or ticketmaster ;)

    and i probably won't share, there is already enough competition 8-)

    how is this dishonest activity?

    someone has a connection to a venue - possibly through a VIP ticket program

    they pay a lot of money to see chicks and dudes in spandex flopping around to shitty music

    ballet is their thing - not eddie vedder

    so - here they have an opportunity to make some money - so they do

    it's simple reality - nothing dishonest about it



    i agree it sucks for ev fans - but there's NOTHING you can do about it

    re

    al

    it

    tee



    and as for the morals you speak of... it's no longer 1992 my friend
  • KDH12KDH12 Posts: 2,096
    some of you are a bit to serious and got your panties in a bunch

    loosen them and listen

    the internet will give you all the answer you seek, I was doing a little research and it seems that the password might come from 10C, they are calling it an over flow presale which suggest that it will come from 10C. Passwords are almost never sent out by TM, if it doesn't come from 10C, IT WILL come from the promoter which in the case of Chicago is Jam Productions (wink, wink) get on their mailing list

    if I get it and it is not widely distributed I would share with only those from Chicago ;)
