Let Your Voice Be Heard

This may not be possible because of the number of allotted 10c tix, but if there was some way that everyone who enters the lottery could be guaranteed one show, that would be fantastic! I am planning to try for 4 or 5, but even if I only get one, I will be very happy!!

I thought they took the monies out, and if you don't win,They give it back.
So I only put in for one choice because I didn't have enough money to choose two. :(

is it possible ,to open a new forum, so members can tell their complains,ideas,what they dont like how 10c and the band runs the business ,or ask their questions about how things works,about tix,memebrships etc??
and someone from the office answer like once a week there?
or do it 2 times per week at chat??so can be useful as well??
maybe save some time from alot of emails you receive with multiple same questions at the info-ticket email adress and the same time we have less threads about the same topic and the same questions?
will be good if we can focus alittle at music,and shows at porch forum,
thanks for Listening

Maybe, something like this. ---> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gpIXKd-N ... emFR04ZQlE
Only instead of guitars, the PJ "panel" could address questions, moans, complaints, concerns, etc.

I love everything that the band does for the fans. You guys are great. I feel that the prices on the fan club items are high when you consider a member is already paying a premium. I think, for example, that an item like the Vs./Vitalogy reissue was overpriced, and I did not purchase it.

I'm not sure if other fans are feeling the same thing, but I'd settle for less in some regards if the price were lower. Let's be honest, a lot of us have been acquiring a lot of stuff over the years, and I love every bit of it. But, I sometimes start to feel more like a collector than a fan. I know production costs are high, but I'd love to see more good, old-fashioned music without all of the bells and whistles. Look at that - I'm sounding like an old man. I love all that you guys do, but $150 for something is a lot of money for me, and perhaps others out there.

They did tell us about the change in the email.... although didn't draw particular attention to it. I guess the lesson is that we all need to thoroughly read every single email about tickets that 10C sends so that we don't miss policy changes. But you know, the lottery is still open, so it's not too late for you to do anything you want! Just cancel your choices and choose again.

And to the OP of this thread and anyone who agrees.... Easy solution to your dilemma: Stop buying so much merch! Just because it's available doesn't mean you need to have it!

..... It seems I posted that in the wrong thread. :think: It was supposed to be a thread about how the OP felt like a collector and not a fan.... Did I combine two replies into one post by accident?? I think I need a nap.

Same here. Got about an hour and a half-2 hours of sleep last night and went into work at 8 this morning.

I told my boss to just let me fall if I pass out... I deserved it.

Well,I just went back,Canceled and re-submitted my tickets. In the news letter,It stated that
reserved seating is for Seniority 10 Clubbers,So I had to reorder for G.A. also. In order to
possibly get something. I thought it was a Lottery. Do they Lotto out the seniority fans as well?
I was in the club back in 1998. Does that count for something. :( :oops:

-.- Glorified GnothingMan -.-

I think the name of this upcoming tour is misleading. With 2 Canadian shows only (Calgary and Vancouver), this is hardly a "North American" tour. Maybe "U.S. Tour"? Even that is misleading since most of the south and midwest are missed. Maybe "West Coast and Northeast Runs (With a Few Other Dates Thrown In)"


Just sayin...

The Bay Area hasn't had a true "seniority" show in 13 years. The 2003 show had the block system. The 2006 shows were GA. The 2009 show was a festival. Last year's show wasn't even acknowledged by the band. I was really looking forward to seeing what my number would have gotten me this tour after 15 years of paying fan club fees. And you're wrong when you say NEVER. I was 23rd row in 2000; when I used my number for one of the LA shows in 2009, I had moved up to about row 11. So, I was making steady progress over the years.

I've been lamenting the same (and also went down to LA in '09 for that reason). But actually I'm thrilled at the prospect of being in section 127 or 116, with the band feeding off the energy of a 10-club only GA pit (fingers crossed that my lottery number comes up, of course). Even if there were seats on the floor, I'd prefer to be in 127/116 than being in row 10+ on the floor.

So consider this 19-year member happy and hopeful.

Did my member number change again? I thought the number in my user name was my member number now it shows my member number as 275272. I lost my old Member name of mweeps when the "new" pearljam.com site went live. I had to email Ten Club several times to even be able to login. I thought you had a grace period for seniority to not change I think I renewed after the expiration date once by like three days.

thank you for ADA seat ordering info in the ten club email.

(please be careful. wish there was a way ten club could confirm disability before doling out member tickets)

GREAT JOB 10c on your first full-tour lottery!!!
From the front end, looks like things went smoothly, and that people were notified accordingly.
It was a long wait, but I'm not sure that could've been avoided based on the processing of each member cc individually. Hope you're all getting a breather today.

No joy here in the lottery. 10C should release how many 10C tickets available for each show and how many 10C members applied for a pair on each show and what percentage of members applied. Not happy. It is extremely difficult getting tickets for major bands on a public sale on ticketmaster. It's almost impossible.

javis el errante

It amazes me how people pulled the "I've been a 10C member for 20 years" card, or "I've spent thousands of dollars on this band" card, or the such, just because they weren't drawn to buy a ticket, as if being an old member or spending loads of money entitles them to a ticket, which eventually they will have to pay for. It happened with tonite's show, with next Friday show, and EV solo tour and PJ europe tour and US shows last year. It happened with Uranus shows for christ's sake! So, if you couldn't buy tickets now, buy them later during the general sale: you will be able to get tickets for GA or good seats. But this entitlement is out of the question, and totally disrespectful.

And what amazes me even more is that these people are so upset now that they claim they won't renew their membership. These people, who barely take part on any discussion, come to boards showing their so called "credentials" to express their disappointment and get approval, self assurance, empathy or sympathy from the rest of the participating members of the boards. Why on earth do those people do that? They are shoving their "so called credentials" over our faces because tehy weren't drawn in the lottery, as if they deserve to be drawn more than any other 10C member? How do those people expect anything when they never took the time to write a decent user name, and the rest of us don't even know their name? Or worse, some claim to have multiple memberships in order to raise their chances to get tickets over those who can afford only one membership, why don't you use that extra money you pay here to buy the tickets on the general sale and a couple of extra beers during the show? This attitude from many members beats me completely.

During the past, some people who didn't get stuff, be it tix, vinyl, dvd, backpack or dog collar, threaten to quit the 10C, but don't worry, nobody kept their promise, we'll be reading posts from them after the next drawing for tickets for the upcoming Canadian/European/Australian/Latinamerica tour...
