    Seems like if you really wanted reserved you needed to only select reserved.

    See you all there, and the 6'6" guy, feel free to stand behind me. :mrgreen:

    I'll stand in front, since you won't have anything obstructing your vision :lol:

    I only tried for reserved seating and lost, so don't feel bad if you got GA. I wish I put in for that too. I am very disappointed. I really don't like this lottery. :(

    This doesn't seem possible since everyone who had GA as first choice got tickets and they had to resort to second choice entries to fill the section. Did you meet the eligibility requirements? The only other scenario I could think of is that a vast majority of the entries picked reserved only. But gaging the responses here I don't think that happened.

    Had a thought about GA vs reserved after Worcester 1 results seemed that most people were reporting wins with GA and many (myself included) who put reserved as first choice lost. My thought was that the GA section is pretty big (check out the seating chart), and possibly 10club got only 10% of the total available tix (lets say the capacity with GA and rear seats is 17,000 just for example purposes). So maybe DCU only gives 10club 1,700 tix, and maybe GA holds 1,300 (again pure speculation just to illustrate a point), that only gives 10c 400 reserved seats to sell (or some other combination that heavily favors GA)....seems like a possibility and would explain why so many are getting GA 2nd choice.

    I needed 3 tickets for either Hartford or Worcester, so I didn't try the lottery the first time around. I figured as a 2nd show, I only needed 2 seats. I can't believe how sad I am.

    You were ineligible to win. You never had a chance. The lottery for this show was ONLY for people who tried to get tickets to the first show, but were unsuccessful.

    A second Worcester show has been added to the Fall 2013 North American Tour and is scheduled to take place on October 16th. You are being contacted because you entered for the first Worcester Oct 15th drawing but were not selected for a pair of tickets.

    DATE CITY VENUE

    Oct-16 Worcester, MA DCU Center

    A Ten Club ticket drawing will be held for members who entered the drawing for the Oct 15th Worcester show, but were not selected for tickets. Members that fall into this category must be active as of yesterday July 29th, for a chance to purchase pre-sale tickets to this show.

    For your convenience you have 1 full week from today to enter before names are drawn. This drawing entry period opens today, July 30th and closes Tuesday August 6th at 10am PT. Names will not be drawn until Tuesday August 6th .

    Eligibility:
    Only members who entered the drawing for the first Oct 15th Worcester show and whose names were not selected for either GA or Reserved tickets are eligible for this drawing. Members who fall into this category but whose memberships are expired are not eligible for this drawing. Members active as of Monday, July 29th are eligible for this ticket drawing. New memberships and membership renewals purchased after that date are not considered eligible for this ticket drawing pre-sale. Members who already have Ten Club tickets for the Worcester Oct 15th date are not eligible.

    GA and Reserved Ticket Options:
    Eligible members may enter the drawing for both GA and Reserved tickets to any given show, but can only possibly be selected for one or the other.

    GA (General Admission Standing) Tickets:
    The GA pit is in front of the stage at each venue taking up about 1/2 of the floor. Ten Club has acquired the entire GA pit for fan club members only; therefore there will not be a need for early entry. If you are not interested in standing for the entirety of the show, do not enter the drawing for GA tickets. There will not be seats in the GA pit.

    Reserved Seating:
    Reserved seated tickets are being held for the Ten Club in some of the best seat locations in the house, which include floor seats behind the GA pit and 100 level seats. Reserved seated tickets are assigned to members based on seniority in the Ten Club. Remember: public seated tickets fall behind the fan club seats, so no matter your seniority your fan club, seats still put you at an advantage. There will be more reserved seated tickets than GA tickets for Ten Club members.

    For wheelchair accessible seating, please email <!-- e --><a href="mailto:tickets@tenclub.net">tickets@tenclub.net</a><!-- e --> with the subject “Disabled Seating”. Do not enter the online drawing.

    Drawing Rules:
    - Members who won tickets to the Worcester Oct 15 show date are not eligible for these tickets.

    - By entering the drawing for this show, you are committing to purchasing the tickets should your name be drawn. Tickets are non-refundable.

    - Members entering a drawing will have a $1 authorization held on their cards no matter how many ticket options have been entered. If selected for a pair of tickets during the drawing, this $1 authorization will become a final sale charge for the full ticket pair price.. If not selected, the $1 authorization will be canceled and released back to your card.

    - You may enter your name into the drawing for both GA and/or Reserved tickets to any given show, but can only be selected for one pair or the other. You cannot be selected for both.

    - Names will be selected for each ticket type taking your priority into consideration.

    - If you cancel your drawing entries, the $1 authorization will be canceled releasing the funds back to you. Please note that some banks do not make the funds available to you immediately upon cancelation, so check with your bank to make sure you have funds available before resubmitting a new entry.

    And then today, you and anyone who entered who had not previously lost on Worcester 1 had your entry discarded. Sometimes reading and following the rules is important.

    Ooh I guess I missed that. That actually makes me feel better. I am not sure why,,, thank you for showing me that. I would have tried the first time, but what do you do if you need 3 tickets. You' re stuck I guess paying the high prices for lousy seats.

    Yes, but that is the email for the entire tour, its possible Worcester could be an exception where 10c couldn't get higher than 10% of the overall capacity and the GA pit seems larger than on some other seating charts, so my theory is possible. Again, its only a theory.

    yeah..in total for the entire tour....but depence how much big area they get of the floor
    so at this show maybe they had more GA tix,but at brooklyn and philly more reserved..
    so total,they have more reserved than GA tix

    I think Worcester's pit is average. Hartford's looks huge (I think the whole floor).

    GA (General Admission Standing) Tickets:
    Pearl Jam has decided to include a GA pit in front of the stage at each venue taking up 1/3 -1/2 of the floor. Ten Club has acquired the entire GA pit for fan club members only; therefore there will not be a need for early entry. Please know there are less GA pit tickets available in the drawing then there are reserved seated tickets. If you are not interested in standing for the entirety of the show, do not enter the drawing for GA tickets.

    From the same E-mail.

    Not trying to argue; just hoping there is a little more elbow room with the bigger floor plan.

    XL Center hasn't posted a seating chart specific to the PJ show to my knowledge, just generic charts on the site.

    Pretty much! Looking to swap my extras for Brooklyn 2 and Worcester 1, but I am optimistic! VERY lucky after being shut out of Wrigley!

    Not arguing either, just positing a theory. And my theory has more to do with possible restricted allotment than anything else, it seems to me that 10c certainly got a better than 10% haul of tix in some cities, specifically Hartford and Philly, not coincidentally non-Ticketmaster venues.
