    Sorry but if you have to show photo ID for TC tickets and in effect don't get any ticket as you turn up at the box office how can they sell them on ebay? Am I being thick?
    Any body here any more news as to whether we will get a chance to buy tickets?
    I thought I had it sorted yeterday at 1 minute past 5pm then went to checkout and it started!
    4 hours I spent but to no avail, much like a lot of others.

    What price are live nation doing them at?

    They are treating us like 12 year olds you are right...

    All of this is kind of funny, because all of us are way to old to be in a fan club....22 pj shows without a problem, just joined 10 club and am starting to think they believe we are all 12 year olds.

    How very dare you "too old" I'm only 45 ;) :P

    I know what you mean though...yes I'm a fan, and in the fan club, and yes I love going to live shows but I'm too long in the tooth for fighting and arguing to get there...I just want the old way of ticket purchasing back again.
    It makes much more sense to live in the present tense

    I'm one of the jammy ones who somehow managed to get tickets for Manchester. There's a presale from 9am tomorrow via ticketmaster if it helps anybody.

    Hopefully it'll be a bit smoother for you than that crowdsurge joke!

    That is a great help thanks, and not much more money than the TC.
    Cheers

    There is only one possible solution to this as far as I can see. As most of the tickets will be sold on ticketmaster/livenation/ebay by the time the 10c / crowdscourge post-sale starts, demand is going to way outstrip supply and lots of 10c members are going to be really disappointed. The only solution is - they are going to have to put on some more shows and ensure that all 10c members that want to go have a fair shot at getting the premium tickets that they PAY a premium for via 10c subscription.

    Of all the bands, I would never have expected this debacle from Pearl Jam, whose integrity and devotion to their fans is beyond question IMO. Not in a million years. I'm sure they'll sort this out. Have faith brothers and sisters.

    IMO, this would be the best way to handle the tickets sales. And I mentioned this after the PJ20 Alpine fiasco.
    viewtopic.php?f=4&t=157851

    I said this before, they should sell tickets, even if it just for high demand shows, in several blocks going by fan club #. Everyone will still get an equal chance. This suggestion DOES NOT MEAN if you ave a low number you have an advantage.

    Say, just for even numbers, there are 400,000 members. Well then have 4 different mini tickets sales for a high demand show. You can start off by selling 1,500 tickets or 750 pairs per block.

    Block 1 Fan Club #'s 1-99,999

    Block 2 #'s 100,000-199,999

    Block 3 #'s 200,000-299,999

    Block 4 #'s 300,000-399,999

    Each block gets, say 1,500 tickets (just saying for an equal number)
    So 4 blocks of 1,500 = 6,000 fan club tickets and everyone still gets an equal shot at tickets. The way they give out the seats when you pick them up doesnt change. But this prevents EVERY SINGLE fan club member from hitting the site at the same time.

    And whatever tickets dont sell in a certain blocks on sale, maybe those can then be divided and then added to the other remaing blocks. And if all the seats dont sell after the 4 small tickets sales, then you can do one final one where anybody can purchase tickets.

    I sat from 18.00 to 22.30 and tried to get tickets, the closest i came was to confirm purchase, but failed both times.

    Crowdsurge has not given any details when and how and its gone 24 hrs now. The ticketsale starts tomorrow, willl there by any presale at all? :twisted:
    CrowdSurge have indicated in private emails that the soultion is not going to be a presale. Suggestion that it may be a case of telling Ten Club what shows you want to go to, and them getting back to you for payment.

    now that would be funny...... :lol:

    I'm not going to Manchester but I'm going to ask the question anyway - you'll need a presale code, right? I would hate for folks to log on eager to get tix only to be frantically trying to locate the code then.

    Ticketmaster or Live Nation are not the enemy. Never had problems buying from them. 1st attempt at a 10C sale. Never again.
