    Pre-sale tickets are purchased through a ticket drawing process and payment is processed through the PayPal site.

    At least seating by seniority and randoms for rows 1-2 and 9-10 will remain...

    Wow
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    You can still coordinate "night 1 and night 2" with a friend. It was also a game of chance then with the F5 for 9-10 hours, site crashing in advance of the on-sale, and all that crap.

    At least the site stays up during the lotto process, since we won't have to jam the site all at once.

    I think the lottery is a great idea. I've wasted entire days with F5 before and I'm glad I don't have to anymore. Has anyone had trouble viewing the new site on an iPad? Maybe it's just me.

    I think this is a fair system, because regardless of how the Ten Club wants to handle it or how we'd like to see it done, the fact is (1) the number of seats venues are allocating for fan club tickets has decreased and (2) Pearl Jam plays fewer shows. Going strictly by seniority for ticket purchases would eliminate a large portion of the current fan base who hasn't been around as long, and going strictly with a "live" online sale always seems to cause problems. Using seniority for seat assignment and not for the actual ability to purchase tickets seems fair.

    I've been in the club since '95, and if I don't get to every show I put in for, I'm fine with it. As long as everyone gets a fair chance, that's the best I could ask for. :)

    this is only going to effect the high demand shows- eddie solo, a few of the northeast venues. everywhere else will be readily available as usual. which is why i dont try going to the garden.
    nothing as it seems.....

    They needed to do something about the high demand shows.

    If 10c only get a predetermined percentage of their "sales" that's a letdown for me. Hopefully this mostly affects the shows that cause the clusterfucks.

    Perhaps for the high demand shows they could do a 10c only show as well....

    Or for every show match it with a 10c only show... :)

    Nice dream...lol..
