By the looks of fans posting seat locations 10c tickets have been average at best I know it's random locations but not sure if belonging to a fan club should get you balcony seats.

    Ya know ...

    Wow ...

    I couldn't get tickets through the ten club, though was lucky to get um' via ticketmaster for night 1 and then a solo ticket for night 2 - another huge thanks for the ticket by the way! I am thankful I got to go, period.

    In these small venues or any venue for the fact of the matter we are lucky they presale tickets - geez - can't ya just be glad you were there? There are those who weren't so fortunate, so consider yourself lucky to have gone.
    Appreciation makes a huge difference ...

    I would agree with this. I've been a member since 03 and we were gratefully in the balcony at Hartford. There's plenty that didn't even get in to the show or any of the EV shows for that matter. These venues are small and you can hear just fine. It is told ahead of time that the tickets are random (right on the 10club email), so it shouldn't be a surprise.

    At the beacon and I'd assume most theaters, the seats on the floor go back underneath and past the balcony....So first row in the balcony or loge is a way better seat than back on the floor....

    Just sayin'. the 10club know what they're doing with seats. (most of the time)

    YOU SHOULD NOT BE IN THE BALCONY WITH TEN CLUBS TICKERS LOL. WHAT A JOKE.

    why not? We were specifically told before the pre-sale that the tickets would be in random places throughout the venue. Honestly most people would probably rather be in the front of the balcony than the last row of the orchestra. I know I would

    I had right center orchestra row T for the Boston show and the seats were pretty good and my Ten Club number is in the mid 300,000 so I wasn't complaining. The sound was great and so was the show. I do see why people might complain about the balcony though because even though its random balcony isn't the greatest. I had better seats the first 2 shows in Boston at the Opera House via Ten Club but either way I was happy with the show and being in the building.

    While I expected to be closer, I was fine being in the front of loge for exactly these reasons. Especially considering the 10C tix cost less than the TM tix.

    I hate the back of the orch when there is a loge overhead. The sound does not carry well at all.

    d, we're discussing where the tickets are, not the show. read about the show in the fanviews.

    my buddy for night one had non-10c tickets and was literally the last row in the place, upper balcony. there were unfortunately people with 10 C tickets sitting right next to him. very very weird seat allocations so i guess random really does mean random. those tickets I can't defend but my buddy did say last row was really awesome seats as it's such a small theatre.

    wow, I had a pair of front row balcony seats for Detroit and I sold them to someone here assuming that 10C seats would be better. should've hung on to them.

    I don't really care where my tix are here in Portland. Having been to the venue several times, there isn't a bad seat in the house. This concert sold out quickly and being a member guaranteed a couple of seats for me. Considering the email made it very clear that the seats would be RANDOM, I don't get the complaining. Now, shitty 10C tix for a PJ show, when the expectation is the best seats are reserved for us...that's a different topic altogether.

    I guess it's all about perspective. Go got in the building. You saw a great show. You WEREN'T sold fake tickets/scammed and standing outside the venue with your johnson in your hand.

    Don't know why people are so defensive, there is a difference between commenting and complaining, I don't think anyone is necessarily complaining, they just didn't expect it. My friend was in the lower balcony last night. I've been to a show every EV solo tour and never got worse than row J-ish. It's natural to be surprised when there's a change that drastic.
