    Sorry Bro. Stopping in just to be heard too. Hate this BS. I still don't truly understand how the system worked or how exactly names were picked. I have never not gotten shows. I didn't get Hartford. I would have aslo tried for Philly but couldn't do both. Now I have neither. Teh gay. Sorry for all us old timers.
    Tell the Captain the boats not safe were drowning, turns out he's the one making waves.

    That'd be me. Only put in for my hometown show, Pittsburgh. GA and Reserved, lost both. Super bummed but Im a Pens season ticket holder so Im hopeful for a presale code.

    Also, going to London tomorrow which makes it sting a lot less. :)

    Shut out of this lottery, shut out of London lottery (and public onsale), shut out of Wrigley lottery (and public onsale). Did something I've never done before - bought Stubhub tickets for London and luckily a friend had a spare for Wrigley (non 10C - he got shut out too) so I didn't have to shell out another $500 from Stubhub or a scalper for that show either.

    On a related note, if anybody has a spare ticket for Buffalo...

    First time since 1998.
    It's a completely empty feeling.

    I'll get great tickets through a 3rd party but it really really stings.

    The thought of some people winning multiple selections really makes me want to throw up when some people ended up with none.... :corn: :nono:

    I went 0 for 2, but took a gamble. I was better off with the old system but I think the new system is good. It gives everyone a chance. If I took less of a gamble I may have won.

    The positive is I am waiting on leg 2 results.

    Well, I can honestly say this goes beyond disappointment as my name was not picked for 1 show in MA. I've been a fan since TEN came out, a member of the club for probably 10+ years and this is the first time I've been denied tickets to a show. As I said this goes beyond disappointment as I feel this goes against everything the band stands for. They love their fans, let us tape shows, always gave fan club members first pick of tickets, etc. Not sure who's in charge or why the big need for change, but thanks to all who have just put daggers into a good number of true fans. Nice job.

    Needless to say, there is something wrong with this process, could someone please explain to me why they decided to make this change, and screw over hardcore pearl jam fans? I feel like i just got run over by an eighteen wheeler. I didn't realize I was signing up this year for a major slam of disrespect from a band I've been following for 15+ years.

    Please, please let me know who is blame for this, as that person just lost a good chunk of business from loyal followers. oh, wait? peal jam isn't about the money, it's not about big business, someone at the ten club must not be a fan...

    Thanks for rejecting the loyal followers, and continue to "better" the Ten club.

    Somewhere out there Eddie, Stone, Jeff, Mike, and Matt are just shaking there heads, saying what the f...

    I lost the Pitt lottery. I was so excited too haha. I go to school in downtown Pittsburgh and the arena PJ is playing is only 2 blocks from my dorm. Me and my buddy were pumped but now its looking like general sale for me. Or we might just walk down to the box office the morning of and see what they have. Either way were hoping to get in.

    I can hardly bitch (but I will). I got ONE out of eight choices. Kinda hard to plan a road trip when the only show you have tickets to is in the middle of the tour. I guess we can just drive like a thousand miles for one show and turn around and go home.

    Can we please return to the old system? I thought Alpine was as bad as this could get. This is a smack in the face of long time members. 18 years of seniority is officially worthless.
    90 shows and counting...some of my favs: Randall's Island night 2, Milwaukee '95 night 2, Hawaii '06, St Johns '05, PJ20!

    The system is way better than the disappointment of having tickets in your shopping cart and then unable to pay for it because you timed out. The last five years have been awful.

    I actually like the new system. I like the GA option. But I think there is one small glitch. From what I see people are either getting multiple shows or none at all. Thye limit shows with multiple dates to only one so more people have the opportunity to go.....but they allow people to get 2 or 3 shows when other get shut out completely. Why not pull the names out of other drawings when you have one show already? Spread the wealth.

    I got shut out which is fine.....just disappointing when I see other people getting 3 shows.

    Good system that could be as close to perfect as they have ever been.
    Like a word misplaced...nothing said...what a waste

    It is more fair this way. Actually WAAYY more fair

    Better with everyone having a fair chance than the same seniors every time ya know?


    Plus some people here got shut out of all 10 of their choices even, so be glad you are seeing them at all!

    what a complete let down... waited 3 years for a Northeast tour to get completely shut out from the ticket drawing for all shows. Makes you second guess why even be a part of 10C anymore with this system. Here I am thinking I will be going to all three of my selections and now....none. Major BS

    Lost out on both GA and reserved seats for Seattle. Shouldn't be surprised considering it is Seattle, but god damn I am frustrated. This may sound immature, but I listen to the band every single day on my iPhone, give them hundreds if not thousands of dollars, actually buy their music rather than torrent it. Why should I have to compete with the casual fans that only like Even Flow and Better Man? This is fucking bull shit. First time being shut out, and it hurts bad. Granted, I only joined the fan club four years ago, so I could only imagine the anger some people who've been in the club longer and been shut out feel. I pay the fucking fan club fees every year so I can get Priority tickets. Why the fuck is the band perfectly willing to take my money and still deny me my god damned Ten Club tickets? Reserve the whole fucking Key Arena for the Ten Club if you have to! God damn fuck shit I feel like fucking shit up right now.

    /end angry rage rant

    That being said, I really hope they announce a second Seattle show right quick. There is no way in hell I'm going to buy tickets to the first show through ticketmaster, only to find out there will be more Ten Club tickets available for the second show. I know they announced a second Seattle show for Eddie Vedder solo because the first one sold out so quick.

    To be fair in this case you were competing with other 10C members in this lottery, and the lottery itself is conducted IMO in a fair manner - random

    I understand and completely expect someone being shut out to feel bummed, but you just ended up on the wrong end of lady luck, because it was conducted in a fair way
