    Thanks cutz. We were trying a different strategy this time. Everybody says put first what you want the most. So this iswhat we did. Oh well.

    I really wanted GA and had it as my first choice but then i changed to Reserved as first choice and GA as second because Reserved odds were better. No idea if i would have gotten tickets if I kept GA first; it's a crapshoot. Good Luck tomorrow.

    As a lifelong Chicago Cubs fan, I have years of seeing LOST next to the events I care about. It sucks that even in the sober light of day, I still have no intention of continuing with the band. Hail Hail the Lucky Ones to get theirs. For me, I guess nothing lasts forever. At least it wasn't an OD or a suicide that stops the music...is it possible to a bitter 32-year old?

    I need to point out your mistake with your selections. There's only about 500 pairs of GA tickets to these shows. Making GA your top 3 choices greatly reduces your odds of winning. Someone with reserved as their 1st or 2nd choice will get selected before someone with reserved as their 4th or 5th choice. If you had reversed your selections it is very likely you would have won at least 2 of the reserved choices. It's a numbers game and you didn't play the odds the right way. Just saying.
    Yeah, i agree with with you on his selections. That, and consider WHERE he was trying to score tickets(North East area: Boston, NY, Philly, Hartford. Plus Chicago). You may not have won the Philly selection you did win, if the that show was on the weekend. Like Primussucks said, it's a numbers game and thers not many tickets to be had for GA, so your odds are not great to begin with. Moline is a SMALL venue so when you didn't win for GA with your FIRST choice, thers a GREAT chance that you would not win Moline reserved with your 5th choice. Not trying to be an ass here, just trying to give some friendly advice.

    Moline is the smallest venue on the tour with one of the highest demands. He had zero chance at scoring reserve tickets as his 5th choice. Couldn't agree more!

    I feel for the good people who got shut out and hopefully their luck is better tomorrow for the public sale. The demand for these tickets never surprises me though. Detroit will only be my third show but the first two were a couple of the most incredible events I have ever attended. Anyone who is going for the first time will be completely astounded.

    Now release the London, Ontario bootleg from last summer!

    im goin to detroit too,my first show ever,gonna be a long summer waiting for october lol

    Got my Milwaukee tix! Seated too, thank goodness. I didn't want to deal with East Troy for the Anniversary shows, so my first PJ show since 2006.

    I need advice...not sure if I should be trying for tickets on ticketmaster tomorrow morning. Here's the deal: My Tickets shows I won tickets to St. Louis reserved however my brilliant bank decided it looked like a fraudulent charge. There was a message on My tickets to update payment info, which I did. It is pending on my cc, but I still have not received an email confirmation. I have an email in to ticketing but no response. Anyone have something like this happen to you?? I'm getting really frustrated and nervous I lost my tickets!

    You should contact tenclub and ask about it. You can also call them. Also, I would call your bank and confirm that it is not a fraudulent action. Good luck!

    Do you know where I can find a number. I have been looking and looking and was only able to find the email address. Thanks!!

    Won my first priority for the 1 show that I entered! GA Floor - St. Paul. Can't believe it has been 11 years since they have headlined a tour here!
    Not a big fan of the lottery system, especially since I have been a member for 20 years and could have been shut out. however the system does make since due the size of the membership now, maybe it would make more since to weight your entry based on seniority, for example:
    20 years + get their name in 4 times for each drawing
    15 -20 years - 3 times
    10-15 - 2 times
    less than 10 - 1.
    This would give better odds to long time members, but still giving newer members a chance to get tickets.
    Maybe they should just have fan club only shows!

    Can't wait until October 19th!

    I don't mean to cause a stir, but seniority doesn't always correlate with passion. Who says that a 30 or 40 something is more a fan than a 13 year old kid with a poster on his/her wall. Seniority is just a measure of time and nothing else, surely not fandom.

    This is coming from a short time 10C member but most definitely a long time passionate fan. I think the lottery is fair because it is based on equity, which I'm sure is the point of it. I was lucky to get tix, but certainly feel for the people who didn't. BUT it is still very possible and very likely if anyone who didn't get ticket to still acquire one. DONT GIVE UP HOPE!

    I understand your point and agree that I am lucky to have benefit from my membership at previous shows getting tickets in the first 7 rows for the shows that I have been at. This the downfall of being part of such a large fan base which continues to grow. New members should have the chance of having the same experience that I have had in the past. I guess my point was that I feel that the lottery should give a better chance of long term members while still giving new members a chance to get tickets. Sure would be great if the 10C could get access to more tickets for these shows!
    This is much better than the ticket process that they experimented with during the EV solo tour 3 years ago. That was a disaster!
    Good luck tomorrow to all that were not able to get tickets.

    That's all? Man, that is pocket change for me>LOL!!

    I doubt very much that tickets will go for any where near that price.

    Good luck tomorrow to all that were not able to get tickets.

    The EV solo 10c ticket disaster was only one of a few botched sales this website had. . . the Fall 2011 Canada tour also caused the website to crash. As a backup plan they sold the rest of the 10C tickets through the local agencies, in some cases Ticketmaster. I bought Montreal 2011 tickets through evenko.com & 2011 EV solo tickets at the Bushnell theater in Hartford through the theater website. (that was sweet, I was able to request the section and put in for orchestra pit. . . . I got tickets in the second row.)

    People seem to forget that seniority never gave members better access to tickets, they only got better seating after they secured the tickets, which still is the case for all reserved seats. . . . the best seats go to the members with the most seniority.

    Just some food for thought.

    Anyone going for Denver tickets today? I realized that they're not through TM, rather Altitude Tickets. It's not the slickest site so i'm not sure if i registered for the right page (there's flash seats which is a different registration than the regular site?).. any advice on whether or not this site will be fluid for the actual sale??
