    Gives people more of a chance to score tix is my guess. Sucks if your wanting to go to multiple shows, but should give you a better chance to get into 1, which is better than 0. Good luck :D

    No kidding D. That looks like a monumental cluster fuck!!!

    You could actually get locked out of every show in the same hour!

    It is likely the ticketing vendor, not the band.

    for example, down here Ticketbastard never staggers onsalse. All onsales ALWAYS happen Saturday at ten am. No idea what they do the rest of the week.

    Years ago, I remember there were over 100,000 seats going onsale (football game, baseball game, and a couple of concerts) and they had ALL those people call at the exact same time. it is just stupid.

    They could stagger these things so easily. Sorry for the rant, just one of the TONS of reasons why I hate Ticketbastard.

    Can't be the vendor when it's the TC tickets!

    This totally reminds me of Ed's April Fools '08 tour. All the west coast 10club ticket show's went up @ the same time. I almost pasted out & fainted during the whole process. It was pretty much a nightmare.

    This will be the same too. :(

    that is pretty weak. hell even when phish tickets go onsale through TM they stagger the sales so that you can get tickets to all of the shows you want.

    yeah, this is gonna make things especially difficult. i survived the soundgarden presale, so i guess i can deal with this, too.
  • Yeah, this has to be addressed, guaranteed system crash which means hours trying to secure tickets.

    Please break these up !! :? :? :?

    in 2005, most canadian tickets were available for days after the sale began, i wouldn't really sweat it.

    I hope they have better servers.
    The site is going to crash huge! Eddie tickets should have taught them a lesson.
    Please, please stagger them...not so that I can get to more shows, but because the servers you use just can not handle the traffic!
    You could barely move around on the forum this AM with all the people that popped on. :(

    I hope your right. But that was back in '05. There's so much more demand these day's. The presale 10club tickets for Toronto '09 sold out pretty fast and that was the only show available. With 10 show's going up @ the same moment, and for those not going to PJ20 that want to head up here to Canada, it would be a complete nightmare to even score just 1 ticket if all are going up @ the same moment.

    Normally I would never, ever support someone with a Boston Bruins logo as their avatar... however 10C, I beg you, please listen to this man! doing this is going to create such a clusterfuck... I really don't want to spend my entire tuesday getting shut out of tickets, please!

    The 2 toronto dates alone will crash the server, please space it out, atleast an hour or 2.... Unless you've upgraded since the EV tour tickets... please!
    Houston, Texas... Believe it or not, there are 7 million people here... must be a couple of fans who'd love to see you play.

    Yes, please stagger the sale! If they don't - do you have to checkout for each pair you get or can you buy multiple shows in the same purchase?

    SHOW COUNT: (170) 1990's=3, 2000's=53, 2010/20's=114, US=124, CAN=15, Europe=20 ,New Zealand=4, Australia=5
