Europe Sellout?

edited December 2011 in Given To Fly (live)
How fast do you think tickets for the European shows will go?

I am pondering waiting a bit to make a commitment, but I don't want to be shut out.
Also, will any of the venues have assigned seating? I seem to remember none of them had those in the past.
... and the will to show I will always be better than before.

    also woundering this since Im a new member and wont be able to buy 13 dec so gotta go for the 15 public sale it seems.

    "Only members active as of Monday, December 5th at 11:59pm PST are eligible for the fan club pre-sale."

    question for the future: How do I get a pre sale code? ;o

    Your pre-sale code, gets emailed to you ready to purchase your tickets. The public sale will sell out in no time for Manchester (it did for 2010) I had let my membership lapse and very nearly regreted it.

    I've been a 10C member for years now and it's times like this that make me glad I never let my membership expire! :)

    There is only 1 'sold out' thing here, look at Vs/Vitalogy rereleases, PJ20, hardly any gigs. They've got us running round after them, this is crazy, we pay a bands wages in over priced tickets because record sales don't pay that well anymore.

    Pearl Jam aren't money-grabbers and they don't have a 'wage' either.

    They could easily have stopped touring years ago and not need to worry about cash, but they love it and they know we do too.

    So please respect one of the few bands around that actually care about their fans - because they do all this to ensure real fans get the tickets at fair prices so touts can't make a killing off their name and out of our wallets.

    Sorry, it was meant more a swipe at management not the guys themselves, I'd run all day to see a gig, like last night and the constant checking today. After all the band make and play the music the rest is management and promoters etc 'the circus' if you like.

    If you didn't get 10c tickets, have you thought about going for the o2 presale?

    My mobile network provider is not O2, so that discounts me immediately, basically if I don't get tickets through 10C I'm sunk and going to Isle Of Wight, some bands I'd like to see, the other 2 main stage headliners I have not interest in.

    I tried to get O2 Priority tickets but never got them as Ticketmaster kept saying that there were none available. This was from the start up until 2:00 pm.

    I'm not really a fan of the Ticketmaster website and from memory can't remember being very succesful in getting tickets from them.

    Oh, well fingers crossed for the general sale on Friday when I can use other ticket sellers.

    The O2 presale is exactly that. A presale for people who have O2 as their mobile network provider.

    Why does this equate to not being able to access the public general sale?

    Not to mention the fact that there's always spares available as people realise that they can't go because of other commitments.

    Check out seatwave, Viagogo and eBay..... This situation is sooooo wrong, how can other outlets have a presale and we've not had ours as top of the pile?
