there is always 1 and this time its going to be me...

why add another date in manchester, why not add another date in scotland or even wales, probably wales as its closer to IOW it just seems unfair that these country's haven't had the chance to host pearl jam since 2000, manchester had them 2 years ago.
guess its just the way it goes.

the only logical reason imo ... is that the gear and whatnot doesn't need to be re-setup... no transport costs the next day... no need to set up 2 different acoustics ... all the usual logistical reasons.

How about announcing it before selling it? Opportunity to make amends squandered.

Dream on. Not from this fanclub, you wont find out.

Yeah i get that and understand the reason, still just seems unfair, not that it really matters to me in the end, as due to circumstances i'm unable to make these shows anyway... if'd they been one week earlier, no problem..

so i hope for 2013.

In the US if they add shows to a tour, everyone gets a heads-up on the site plenty of time in advance. Why not here?

In the aftermath of probably the biggest PR disaster in the band's history, they had the perfect opportunity make amends, to bandage the wound. Instead, they rub salt in it.

This is utterly disgraceful.

No we don't. I think 3 of the Ed solo shows last year were add just as the 1st shows sold out. I think the 2nd PJ Chicago show in 09 was the same way.

Anyone any idea how the seat numbers go in MEN? I'm sitting in seats numbered in the 20s in block 115, just wondering if this means I'm closer to the stage, or further away? (I.e. If they are numbered right-to-left or left-to-right?)

I'm just trying to figure out how side-on my view will be! Thanks for any info! :-)

Block 115 is close to the stage on Stone's side.

102 is the opposite on Mike's side.

106-110 is the back.

Cheers - I managed to figure out. I was trying to figure out if my seat was close to the stage, or away from the stage, in Block 115.

Turns out the rows in Block 115 are numbered 1 - 28, with 28 being closest to the stage, and 1 being furthest away. (Block 102 is the opposite.)

So I am quite close to the stage, hopefully that means I don't have a completely side-on view though. Still very pleased with my seats.

No ticket sale was as this one. A nightmare. They could at least warn us. Hint, something. After the whole fiasco now this. We should ALL get wristbands for shows we got tickets. Not only for standing, all of it.

I agree, I hope all the 10c members are given early entery bands, seated, standing, anything.

Maybe sometimes not then, but there have been very many times when additional shows will be flagged on the news feed and on the board beforehand. If ever there was a time when they should have made damn sure they did that, this was it.

I remember that. They DID say for 2010 theyd add a show or two. Remember italy was one of those. Rumours but also hints from 10c. I guess we just have to live with this. For now. I will say it again: we do not deserve this.

Not sure why you would like a early enetery wristband when you have seats?
Not like someones gonna steal your seat...

If it was organized like @ Wuhlheide, with a bar and separate entrance etc, I would understand...

Bogwoppit

Well I just managed to get standing tickets, only because I saw it on twitter, otherwise I would not know there was a 2nd date!
I hardly post here, but I've been folowing the whole saga, and it does seem to be a complete fuck up.

I agree.
It was a nightmare and we should all get wristbands.
I probably won't get any wristband this time.
In Stockholm we have seats, beacuse we couldn't find other tickets.
For Olso and Copenhagen the only friend who could complete an order is not a 10 clubber.
Who cares, of course, I'm happy to have tickets.
I'll take it as the first step towards the liberation from the 10club/front row dependence.
I have a feeling I don't want to live another experience like this anymore.

ericlered

Having been hard at work today, i have managed to miss out on standing for night 2 again! If anyone has a spare that would be great, pm me please, i only need one cheers.
