Let's see, who's word to take....the Ten Club, or some dude who weirdly signs his first name to every post he makes, and continually repeats the same things, long after he claimed he was done with this topic, in an attempt to drown out the truth with his paranoid conspiracy theories????

And the winner is, The Ten Club!

Congratulations to the Ten Club. Better luck next time, Jeremy.

LMFAO I must admit something.. When I feel down or blue, I come read these forums, cause you guys argue about the silliest shit!! So far favorites have to be.. the hair dye theory, the Truck description and the Vegetarian debate!! You guys are just TOOO funny!!

Are you serious? Random or not, if someone in the band wants a fan in the front row to acknowledge something cool they've done, that's the band's right. If band management or whoever, wants to place a fan in the front row so a member of the band will notice this fan for whatever reason, I'm fine with this and I'm pretty sure most of us would be. This 'example' you've given is actually a pretty cool story.....

KingJeremyD

I agree...It is a cool story...I am happy for the person who was able to trade the shirt for the drum sticks etc...My point is that isn't totally random for the lottery rows....I am thinking it is just a few per the first two rows who are hand picked to be there...But, my point is it does happen...When a lot of fans on here totally disagree this doesn't happen...



So, it is totally random?...The 10c can do what they want....Pick or choice whoever they want to be those rows...But, don't keep on calling it totally random...When it isn't...

I still think it's random. A guy with a MFC shirt winning the lottery doesn't really convince me otherwise.

I would think majority of it is random winners...But, it isn't totally random....The 10c does hand pick fans to be in the front row or second row etc....

Either that are some people are really super lucky :roll: I know a few people that really need to go buy Powerball tickets they're so lucky to win the PJ ticket lottery so many times.

Wanted to add, it's Pearl Jam's club, they can do what they want, put whomever they want in whatever row, but don't call it a random lottery when we still see some of the same people in the front row night after night.

Ok adding something else, just read a few more posts here
If it's totally random, every night, I know 2 people that were in the front row, in KC and then the next night in STL, in the sameish seats. I mean they weren't exact because it was different venues, but close enough. THOSE 2, among a few others I've seen in the same situation, are so damn lucky they must shit horseshoes!
My number is high, but it gets me side stage Mike, usually, so I have perfect view of those first few rows.

Well I got my win for night 1 at AV...2nd row center! I would love to win again someday but I am never greedy. I am happy to have had that experience and hope others who have yet to win have as much fun as I did when their chance happens along!
That being said, you guys can still keep me in the 10C lottery pool!!

dwhite76

Just look how long it takes for us to get our 10 club single and Deep magazines.....You realy think they put any thought or care into who wins the lotto??? Im betting that its not random. Or not all winners are random.

i would agree with this. I think there are some Karma winners. Just look at fifthelement and rckcndy at the edmonton show. somebody lost a cell phone in calagary, couldn't find it, and moved on to edmonton for the next show. cell phone turns up in calagary, and these two fine ladies see the thread on the topic and drive out of their way to pick up and return said phone.

what happens next?

they end up front row in edmonton, get taste of ed's wine and some guitar pics.

now i don't know if they were really random, or if the pj karma gods shined down on them.

either way, i'm ok if the karma gods do shine down on poeople for whatever reason.

I'm not believing in the karma thing

Me and my buddy organized the WM3 rally fundraiser in TEN DAYS!!! We managed to raise around $3000 for 10 days of busting our asses. I still sit up near the roof. Ok not really but no lottery winner here.
I would think that would bring me some karma.

And I want to say I LOVE doing the fundraisers, I always say I would do them and not go to the shows after. I always forget I'm going to a show until someone says, you better go pick up your tickets.

Man I've been whiny here lately

The fact that they will never tell you how it's done shows there is no "actual" lottery system. I'm sure all 200 or so are hand picked and given out. This obviously doesn't mean they are all frineds, etc. If they were actually using some sort of computer program they would say that instead of dodging the question every time its asked.

I'm pretty sure that I will never be chosen. In fact, they actually put me in the last row once with my number and gave me a 1998 member number when I joined in 1992 and refuse to even look into it for me. I love how there is no way they have any record of sending me tickets, fan club singles and merch from 1992-1997.

My PJ karma doesn't really exist so I will never expect to ever get a lottery seat. Thankfully I'm close enough to that range as is, especially in small cities.

I know some are random, a close friend recently did win. But IMO 3/4 are handpicked.

I completely agree with this and is why they will never tell us the process. Imagine if the powerball jackpot numbers were just posted on their website without any explanation how they were picked and multiple people kept winning. Would everyone just believe the lottery people when they said... "Trust us, it's random".
