I am just a humble country boy in search of answers...

I was logged in to TicketMaster at 2 minutes past the hour for the Milwaukee show. The "Best Available" option got me to way back of venue in upper section. I refreshed several times and did no better. Then went to StubHub and there were at least 250 seats for lower section for sale.

How does this happen?

I'm bummed I did not do 10 Club raffle but I have a high number and get decent, but not primo, seats.

Who is getting all these choice tickets so quickly?

see my above post... ticketbastard has always had "shady" business practices.... remember that's one of the reasons PJ took them on in the mid 90s

True ! Ticketmaster does suck !

They will offer up all the crappy seats first to the people who really want to go and then after the rush, magically better seats will be available. It's a practice they use to fill up the seats.

Hey 10C members...here is the deal i just signed up after the 2014 tour announcement and what not. I did not get any tickets through the lottery but good through good ol' TM. I was fortunate and in the past i have figured out how to beat that BS online crap where it screws people hand over fist. 1st OPTION: Go old school and drive to the box office of the actual location of the event(If close enough) I scored 4 GA Tickets for $70 to the Lincoln, NE show and then I (2ND OPTION) called TM phone line and picked up lower bowl tickets for St. Paul (MN) Right right away next to the stage....none of that timing out and 30 seconds to purchase hoping your Internet & TM don't screw you. This is a little secret that no one that I know utilizes through TM. I had stage tickets for OKC '13 doing the same thing. Everyone of my friends that did online the best they got were nosebleeds.

So all in all if you cant go through 10C then your best bet and luck to score decent tickets at least for me has been dialing TM instead of that online shit.

Now that I am official 10C member hopefully my luck will continue through here. Any advice would be greatfull and 3 PJ shows in less than a year...it was effing xmas morning today. >

Ugh! What an awful tour... My money is on not a single show selling out in the Midwest. They'll need to do a few festivals to make up the lost revenue.

Really? So, the midwest has no PJ fans? Plus at 80$ a ticket, they are in no danger of losing revenue.

I'm confused... How did you buy GA tix from the box office? GA is reserved for 10c only.

Did they actually sell ga tickets for Saint Louis on ticket master this morning? I saw that as an option in the seating drop down menu and was quite confused.

I was thinking the same thing when I read that post. PJ fans come from far and wide for the shows. Doesn't matter if you're in Australia, Europe or the US, tickets will be hard to come by.

Only for a certain amount at each venue I suppose. I don't know how this all works, I am new to 10C and not to say you are not right. But i have them on public sale date. The main reason i have started doing this is bc my dad has done it this way since he retired and gets to pick his seats and you are talking about Roger Waters, Bruce Springsteen....still big time acts. Sometimes the box office workers have more pull than the pricks from ticketmaster.

i always go to the box office when possible... they also don't charge service fees. unfortunately PJ has only played my city once in my 20+ years of fandom

So, who's got my Denver ticket?! I'm a miracle working ten clubber with mad love to give. Try me!

anyone think they may add a Second Denver show?

That would make sense. I hope they do...

Detroit show is selling backstage seats right now on TM
2 seats together sec 212

I was behind stage for Philly last year. Go eat these tickets up. Better than nosebleeds and you'll be in the building which is ultimately all that matters. Please, do not pass up behind stage tickets.

voodoopug

Ticket drops are happening like crazy now, MINN dropped as well. Go get em guys!

gotthebottle

I love being close to the stage..if that's behind or to the side view..so be it...better than way at the other end of the arena...GA for DEN and MKE ...side sec 126 for ST Paul...happy camper

alizmi

I was playing on TM and there are seats out there. Not great ones but they are there. Was able to find tix at just about every venue but Moline. Go get em if you want to be in the building!

Already have my shows lined up but if you dont...

Not sure about Detroit...



BUT the tickets I got for the Moline show say "An Evening with Pearl Jam"
so no opener for this show...YEAH!!!!

mandm621

Cool!!! I wonder if Detroit will say the same? I got a pair of tickets threw the drawing here, so I don't even pick them up until the day of the show.
