Please help! Boston tickets trade for front row seats?

Hello all,
It's been a while since I've posted here but I am desperately seeking help. I am devastated that for the first time, well, ever, I have failed to get tickets through the fan club. I thought for sure I could get some through TM but failed there too! I am begging that some great fan out there will be willing to sell me 1 or 2 tickets for either of the Boston Ed shows. I am just in pieces over the bad luck I have had lately and this show thing just tops it off. What I can give you in exchange is a chance to see Pearl Jam on the next tour in the 1st-3rd rows with me, depending on how seniority works. My number is 71xxx and I have always gotten seats in the first couple of rows, several times in the first row, dead center. Even on this tour I managed to get second row at the Mansfield show. I realize this sounds like an empty promise and all I can really give you is my word, but I have hooked up other people on this board and I can promise they have been happy. I love to share the gift that PJ gives me. I am hoping some awesome fan might be willing to share with me as well. If you want to make a trade, I can pay for the tix and give you my home address (live here in Boston), phone number, show you a newsletter with the fan club number on it or whatever so you know I am not full of it. I am just dying to see the show, this once in a lifetime opportunity, but I can't afford to buy the scalper tickets on my public defender's salary.

Please please please help me.

    A lot skeptical... I have over 200 posts and I consider even myself a total noob to these boards.

    Nice try though.

    I totally understand, and I have actually posted just not for a really long time. I haven't logged on for 2 years though I have been reading. I get the skepticism and I didn't want to use names of people but I will check with them and get back. For instance though, I had to skip a show due to a death in the family and tenclub let me re-assign my tickets through this site. The person who bought them got to keep the tickets originally assigned to me- it was for the 2006 show in east rutherford. I put a cut and paste of my order history below because that is all I can think of to prove it. Like I said, I understand that and I would be skeptical as well but I have been a member of the board for a while and I am not sure why it reads no posts b/c this is where I sold the last tickets(?). All I can say is I am completely telling the truth and can provide more info to any interested party.

    I last posted 5/30/06, searched and it's no longer here. I do, however, still have PM's from inquiries and such. I cut and pasted one below that quoted the post and just removed the name who it was from. Is there a way to paste the whole screen? Like I said, I realize it sounds weird but I have nothing else to offer. What else can I say? Obviously, I would provide more specific proof to someone on a more private basis. I am an attorney in Boston, my private email is below, my work email is cvestal@publiccounsel.net. I am a public defender and I work for the state, our website is http://www.mass.gov/cpcs. I have contacted the person I sold tickets to to ask if it's okay to use his info. I don't know why it would be a scam, I am desperate to go, and would obviously pay for the tickets, I just wanted to offer something in exchange because I know what it is worth.
    Thanks! Cora

    Hey everyone,
    for all those skeptical, DeepPJ (Cora) is telling the truth. Cora hooked me up with INCREDIBLE 10c seats back in 06 in East Rutherford.
    Good luck Cora, I hope you find your tickets!

    Thanks guys! It kills me that scalpers have so many tickets for the Boston shows! I came straight to this board in the past to sell tickets and I wish those scalpers did too (I can dream)...

    A few more details- I was so stressed earlier about the tickets I neglected to mention that I generally try to get to as many shows on the east coast as possible. I usually have flexibility so I can work around your schedule. I also try to see one far-away show per tour (ottawa, vancouver, seattle, etc) so even if you are not in Boston but have tickets for the show, we may be able to work something out. My tickets (71xxx) have been in the first through 6th rows depending on the popularity, etc. At the most recent tour, I was in the 3rd center & 2nd row L & R for Hartford and Mansfield. Mansfield great seats (who knew the left side started with row "f"!?), Mike's side- you may have seen me I am 6 feet tall and walk with a cane so I am pretty recognizable.

    I will obviously pay for ticket(s) to this show. As for the future show, I will put it in a signed writing that I will share my seats on the next tour (which, if Ed wasn't lying at Mansfield 2 should be soon!), just as long as seniority is similar and we can schedule it all. I have been so lucky to be able to get the seats that I have, to go to the shows, and to have this band in my life for so many years. I would love to share this blessing with another fan and I am DYING to go to either of the Boston shows!

    Email for pictures, info, anything. (<!-- e --><a href="mailto:corar57@hotmail.com">corar57@hotmail.com</a><!-- e -->)
    Thanks again!

    i think it is good that you have 4 posts since 2006.....i just can not contain myself. too many interesting/mindless topics going on.
    live and let live...unless it violates the pearligious doctrine.

    Come on people! There are some 10c members with a lousy number and extra tickets for Boston out there. Here's your chance for getting up close next time. Take it! If I could, I would.

    I'm sorry that I can't be off more help, unless you wanna accompany me to Chicago 1.

    Just sending you some good karma. Good things happen to good people!

    Cora, Good on you for not buying scalper tickets!

    Everybody stop doing it!
    For every ticket scalpers sell this time, 2 more will end up in their hands next concert.

    Maybe only good things happen to good people who check email, because I emailed Cora but no response yet.
