Why do people feel so entitled to 10C tickets?

    You dont buy season tickets from the ten club, you join the club "with the opportunity" for access to a limited pool of tickets. This isn't even close to season tickets! How does that even make the slightest bit a sense? How was Montana different too both are cases of Supply < Demand... very simple concepts here you are over complicating just because you didn't get picked.[/quote]

    I have a strong suspicion you work for 10 Club. Lets just agree to disagree. I can see some of your points. I feel strongly on my side of argument but I am not too closed minded to see that there are many issues and factors involved in this. Anyone surprised at any backlash over this seriously needs to give there head a shake. Its very natural for some members to be upset over this. Surely it is increased if one did not win tickets. All of this situation has left a bad taste in my mouth from the implementation of the lottery, to not winning the lottery, to being very concerned about my chances of ever getting 10 club tickets again. Its worrisome and I never had to worry about this before. That to me was one of the biggest advantages of membership was the equal OPPORTUNITY amongst members NOT GUARANTEE to get tickets. A lottery some may argue is equal, I feel differently and perhaps that is influenced by the fact that I lost. I don't deny that fact but I also don't deny that perhaps there is a better way. I'm all for sharing the PJ and I will get to the shows I want no matter what. Hopefully I don't have to pay a small fortune through some 3rd party ticket re-seller which was another big reason I was in the 10 club and why this is disconcerting......

    *shrug* A larger number of 10C members will get 10C tickets with this system. I don't think it takes a genius to know that anyone opposed to this system doesn't give a shit about that fact, and therefore doesn't give a shit about the greater good - only themselves. And that means something to me.

    How is a lottery un fair and what is the better way? Do you have the math skills to understand what a lottery means? How this REMOVES the many variables that are involved with an online sale? Look if you had valid points that's one thing, but you don't have any facts to back any of this up. You are just mad you didn't get tickets. You "feel" its un fair but cant point to any specifics... its silly, come with something that makes some sense.

    I don't like the lotto for one reason. I hate leaving it up to someone else. During the F5 I scored tixs to the few shows I wanted. With the lotto it's not in my hands anymore and I don't like that.

    Am I worried about the fall tour not really. Am I worried if they come to Columbus, Cincy or Clev I won't be able to get tixs through the new system. Not really, like i said i just don't like having someone control my destiny.

    Listen it was never this way before whether I won or lost and its hard to accept and deal with the change after being accustomed to a system that worked for my for years. A system that I was happy with and that I continued to support because my loyalty and patronage were rewarded I felt. What don't you understand about that? Do you enjoy making light of the fact that yes I am upset because I have never had to deal with this issue before which I why I feel it unfair? Your like the guy that sells you insurance for everything you don't need and then tells you once you get screwed oh you should have bought this insurance as well. Too bad so sorry nothing you can do. 10 club was my insurance before this for getting tickets and it always worked for me 90 percent of the time. Now the insurance has changed drastically and you tell me no its basically the same but...............

    Ok none of my points are valid and my last 14 years in the 10 club was just some wonderful dream I must have been having. There is nothing to be said for loyalty and continued support. These things mean nothing. To be worthy of these things you must go through a random lottery each show to see if you are worthy. The online sale we are all on equal footing as members for the opportunity to get tickets. Now were on equal footing through a lottery. You don't win the lottery you don't get tickets. The chance at 10 Club tickets is gone. There is a big difference between this and the previous system although you can't see it because your some sort of salesman. Yes I have math skills and I understand the lottery but I equate that to every mother that tells her child he or she can be President of The United States (if American). Lets be realistic here. What are the odds? Joining the 10 club significantly reduced those odds before and I always got the tickets I wanted 90 percent of the time. As one person pointed out you want to really make it fair since it seems that's what your all about then how do you feel about abolishing this whole lottery system and making it a public sale for everyone? Id be far more in favor of that as opposed to this new garbage system! I'm sure you would agree that this is a great idea given your stance.... Share the PJ equal chance for all!!!!

    I dont feel entitled at all. Havent really had the best of luck with tix. I couldnt take days off of work to sit in front of a computer. Most shows I have been to I didnt have tenclub tix, and I had a fucking blast, no matter where my seat was. Its awesome that I scored the GA Pit tix for Wrigley but I didnt care that I was on the lawn both nights at Alpine, I was just thrilled to be there. I dont quite understand alot of the views people have around here but its their right to express their opinions I suppose.

    I don't like the lotto for one reason. I hate leaving it up to someone else. During the F5 I scored tixs to the few shows I wanted. With the lotto it's not in my hands anymore and I don't like that.

    Am I worried about the fall tour not really. Am I worried if they come to Columbus, Cincy or Clev I won't be able to get tixs through the new system. Not really, like i said i just don't like having someone control my destiny.

    I agree with this. I do not like it out my hands either. I will get tickets to the shows I want either way. Hopefully I do not have to spend a small fortune through some 3rd party re-seller. I am a huge fan and will see the band every realistic chance I get. I'm sorry but this was one of the major reasons I was in the fan club because I am such a huge fan and thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to be able to try and buy tickets before anyone else.

    Listen I will get to the shows I want and enjoy them wherever I sit. Previously the huge selling point of the club was to have first opportunity to buy CHOICE tickets. I don't get how anyone can be surprised when what was once a huge selling point and benefit of the club has now drastically changed and can be very disappointing to someone. How can anyone argue that it has not significantly changed. Like it or not there was an entitlement as a paying member to be able to have first opportunity to buy choice tickets. That is why many paid and joined and continued to renew their memberships..... But yeah I guess its all crazy talk........

    I do understand why people are frustrated. Its just not something that Im going to go apeshit over. Even though it is a large part of why I am a member. Believe me, I dont exactly have a ton of faith in the tenclub. Maybe Im just used to the way everything goes down.

    And I almost forgot: Its not like some people who paid for a membership to some other fan club were thrown into the lottery and got tix before we did. There were a certain number of tix to go around and they got distributed. You win some, you lose some. Thats life.

    The opportunity for CHOICE tickets has not changed. What's changed is how they are distributed. Before if you were one of the first people to click a button you won the tickets. Now, you click a button and find out in a week if you won tickets. The only difference is time.

    The lottery was in existence for the 1998 tour and 2000 tour. This was before the internet sales. There is precedence for this lottery method. No one bitched back then. Thepigs turned into hogs I guess.

    I am extra cranky and argumentative over this and I'm sure a large part of that has to do with not getting tickets. Also this is not my first and surely not that last time I will have been frustrated with 10 club. So its been very easy to lure me into getting defensive over this issue which I have a strong opinion on. Ah well........

    I feel this is common fucking sense.
    People feel entitled to 10club tickets because they are in the fan club and pay yearly dues in order to get tickets prior to the public, and get good seats.
    Otherwise why have a fan club and why pay dues.

    No??

    Yes... And that's exactly what happened. There just weren't enough tickets for everyone who wanted them.

    I feel this is common fucking sense.
    People feel entitled to 10club tickets because they are in the fan club and pay yearly dues in order to get tickets prior to the public, and get good seats.
    Otherwise why have a fan club and why pay dues.

    No??
    Yes... And that's exactly what happened. There just weren't enough tickets for everyone who wanted them.

    QFT!!!!

    The logic involved with this simple truth of the matter is a thing of absolute beauty....considering the last 24 hours anyway.

    The opportunity for CHOICE tickets has not changed. What's changed is how they are distributed. Before if you were one of the first people to click a button you won the tickets. Now, you click a button and find out in a week if you won tickets. The only difference is time.

    The lottery was in existence for the 1998 tour and 2000 tour. This was before the internet sales. There is precedence for this lottery method. No one bitched back then. Thepigs turned into hogs I guess.

    Pigs to Hogs? I say public on sale for all tickets if you wanna be fair. Does that just make me Wilbur from Charlotte's Web now?[/quote]

    It is an expression. "Pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered".

    But my point was that the lottery was in existance before the method you like so the fan club isn't changing course from its founding principles.
