    Why isn't the ticketing process for the Canadian shows staggered ?

    Now I assume that the Ten Club has considered all viable options relating to the 'smooth' distribution of 10 Club ticket pairs through their website. They've decided to open up all Canadian tickets at the same time for a reason....

    - Just a suggestion ..... how about attaching a brief explanation to the Canadian Tour announcement post detailing why such a 'non-staggered' approach is being implemented. I think this may curb some of the angry posts relating to this issue. This is not an 'angry post', but rather a 'constructive' post.

    I think most fan club members would just like to have a ticket-purchasing experience that does not end up taking hours whether they secure tickets or not.

    * The Canadian Tour is great news. Thank you for your efforts, Ten Club.

    Ugh, if this is a flashback to the Vedder Solo tour in '08, I don't think I can handle that again! 4 hours, 4 seperate charges but no tix, but then a last minute email about tickets was hard on my ticker :lol::|

    Personally, I think that this situation will be rectified at some point throughout the week, and they will stagger. But we'll see.

    One of the dates is on my birthday and I can probably convince the wife to go, but I'm from Florida. Where the hell is Saskatoon? What city do I fly to to get there?
    As for your concerns D, I think ticket sales will end up being staggered. Of course, I'm guessing Saskatoon on a Monday probably won't be the first one people try to get, but again, I know nothing about it... :oops:

    Saskatoon has it's own airport, YXE. If you can't fly direct into YXE from Florida, you'd have to fly into Regina, which is a few hours away.

    Teeny followup (sorta) with 10C, basically told me to hang tight and they're ironing out some details. So maybe they'll stagger after all?

    Bell Centre, Montreal.
    Doors 6:30 pm - Show: 7:30 pm
    On Sale: Sat, May 28 Noon $83
    Taxes and service fees included / shipping fees excluded.

    No, the show for Montreal will not be listed on ticketmaster, it will be on ticketmasters French (and atlantic Canada) subsiduary...

    http://www.admission.com

    And I would say that's why you're seeing a different On Sale date. Different subsiduary, different policies.

    jeez D, I thought you were an atlantic Canadian....

    That is a nice thought about the sick days... I'll have to think about it... my buddy is on my case to go he wants to use my 10C membership for tickets (moron doesn't have one)... and I know all montreal shows are killer... that place rocks for a concert...

    But I would figure that they'd ban you D :P
    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.

    I've never shopped @ admission.com. It's pretty much http://www.ticketatlantic.com/en/home/default.aspx & http://ww3.ticketpro.ca/index.php?languageid=-1 in these parts of the woods.

    I love the Bell Centre. Will try & get my Bruins jersey stitched up with "PEARL JAM" printed on the back before the show. Doubt I'll be banned but loved by all Hab fan's! :lol:

    Sweet! :)

    But what about the times each show's 10club ticket's go up for sale? :( I don't mind that all of them are going up the same day. I'll take the whole day off work.

    This could be the worst PJ Tour announcment day since I have been in the 10C (1994).

    I can't make Alpine due to the fact I have a family event over labor day and don't want to get divorced or make my kids upset. I know... not PJ's fault.

    I can work out going to Canada again but fear that the mess of May 24th will result in hours of frustration with pour results.

    I know it is selfish but I am still bumbed about it all...

    Labor Day weekend... ugh
    May 24 10am Pacific all 10 shows.... ugh ugh

    May God and the servers be on our side.... at least my house isn't being flooded.

    Going to be next to impossible to get tix to both Toronto shows and Hamilton. Why all at the same time???

    This is the email I sent to 10C:

    Hi
    I know you guys are swamped with requests and info seeking right now.
    Im wondering if its possible that 10C will re think thier selling times for the Canadian tour.
    Many of us would like to see the on sale times staggered as to ease the load of traffic for the sales.
    I dont know if its at all possible to do this. If someone could send me a reply on if this is being considered that would be great.

    Thanks in Advance.

    Genevieve Olivier

    And this is the reply I received:

    Revisions are being made. Please stay tuned in the coming day or so.

    -10c

    Im thinking they are gonna make changes and stagger. Oh pleeease! I hope thats whats happening!!!
    the person below me smells like cat pee and raisins...
