edited June 2008 in The Porch
There were at least 3 rows of us that I talked to who were in the last 3 rows of section 204. All of us pissed. We are never further away that row 13 and tonight based on seniority we are in the last 3 rows of the amphiteater. We were so far at the end there were only about 15 people in the last 4 rows total. We were all about 15 feet from the lawn. There was a guy who was in the fan club for a year and a half who was 5 rows in front of us.

I also knew people with an 181xxx number who was in section 103(non lottery row).

We all said we were calling the 10 club tonight to vent.

    10c could start addressing heartbreaking depressive crises like this by giving you exclusive seats for the next show.... outside the venue.

    you obviously had my seats. and yes the fan club numbers do matter when you ordered them through the fan club(which we all did). they weren't ticketmaster seats.

    Well if I did have your seats they were pretty good..... a few tall annoying frat boys who kept yelling "Play Leash you pussy!" (so creative boys..) but for the most part they were great.

    Hopefully your seats will be just as good tonight and I'll get them!

    you are a moron. the seating is based on seniority. It was a whole 164xxx number thing, not just me.

    I think, first of all, you can't deny that there is an issue with people with such low numbers getting such terrible seats. If a 10C seat is on par with a Ticketmaster seat, there's something wrong with this system which has given the die-hards an opportunity to see the band with great seats previously. However, I really do wonder what the 10C tells you when you contact them about it. If I were them, I would offer an apology by shipping you a free bootleg of the show.

    I wouldn't have cared so much if I was going to or went to another show on this tour, but last night was my only show and for that f-up to happen is just disappointing. We were all more disappointed more than mad. we made the best of it, but still going to voice our displeasure today.

    That had to be a mistake. :(

    Clearly the 10c has stated and when mistakes are NOT made they are seating by seniority with the exception of rows 1,2, 9 and 10 which are randomly selected.

    Mistakes happen. Sorry to hear that. Go tonight and have a great time. No need (or enough time in this lifetime) to dwell.

    Sorry about that though. Initially I'd be pretty unhappy about it too. But that was then and this is now. It's a beautiful day and hopefully you're seeing Pearl Jam tonight! If you're not...I have an extra pair of 161's available. :)

    Either way guess I'm screwed for tonite-huh, since I'm 253xxx?! Never had GOOD seats for PJ & am just happy that 10c let us pre-order for 2nd show before it was confirmed. Wasn't able to get ANY for 1st thu 10c & only lawn thru the bastard!

    Yeah I don't have tickets for tonight or any other night. I appreciate the offer on the tickets brother. I doubt I'd be able to get there tonight, but I'll let you know if I can. That's a really cool gesture and I won't forget it.

    Dude you've seen so many shows already. Give some of us other members with higher numbers to see the band up close. Do you see how spoiled Pearl Jam makes you?

    Sure, but there's only so much sympathy to go around. The fellow himself said he's never sat further away than 13th row.

    Its not the will calls fault. It's the 10 club. Your tickets are in an envelope with your name and member # printed on the front that you actually have to sign before they hand you the tickets inside. It's the 10 club nitwits that screwed it up. Its almost like they said.........

    It amazes me that you can blame the 10C for this based on absolutely nothing but conjecture.

    You mean other than being to 20 shows before and knowing where my seats usually are and then being in the last possible fan club row all of a sudden with 30 people who have the same 164xxx fan club number. Sitting behind a group of 6 people who said they bought the tickets in front of us that morning on ticketmaster. Having a fan club member who has a 404xxx sitting 5 rows in front of us. My cousin who has a 181xxx at the show sitting in a non lottery sec 103 seat. All conjuncture huh?

    yeah, I'm with you on this...

    In 2003 my 10c seats were 5th and 8th row...

    since then, 20th row in 2006 and 15th the other night...

    I hoped to be getting closer, not farther...with that said, I had a great time at the shows...I know nothing is perfect, but I was hoping for better...

    That might be the case.

    However, in Tampa, there were reports of the will call people allegedly stealing the "lottery tickets" and replacing them with whatever shit tickets were lying around. Obviously, we don't know if it's true or not, but it doesn't seem like it would be that difficult for someone to get another envelope and write your name on it. It ain't rocket science.
