2016 PJ25 Tour Rumors

whats F5?

Leezestarr313

F5 is the refresh key on your computer keyboard. Before the lottery, you would go here when tix got on sale and then just refresh like crazy until you got your tickets. It was a crazy experience. I heard people were trying for 8 hours+ for PJ20 tickets. I got mine within 10 minutes, I guess I got lucky. The lottery makes this whole thing smoother, but you don't have it in your hands if you win or lose.

this is starting to sound intense so what when the lottery starts i need a spare 8 hours to refresh a page?

Leezestarr313

No, I guess that came of wrong. With the introduction of the lottery, F5 was a thing of the past. Make your choices and wait for the results. No F5ing anymore. Sometimes I wish we still could do it like that. Because I was more successful. But I guess now it is more fair to everyone. Good luck

GardLivingston89

oh ok haha good. thanks you too.

Leezestarr313

And "it is starting to sound intense" made me giggle It was. Oh god. It was. And it felt like the impact lasted forever on here

GardLivingston89

i could imagine lol. so do you pretty much just choose which price and section you want and then just hope u get it

Leezestarr313

Yep. I changed my choices a couple of times in the process every time. At first you wanna go to as many as possible, then you start looking at maps and bank account and probability more, then you change. Then they have this feature that shows the probability of getting tickets in percent. That might make you want to change your mind again. And even if you lose out on all your choices, there is still the public sale. It is not the end of the world if you don't get fanclub tickets. If you wanna be there, you can make it happen.

GardLivingston89

well ya no matter what ill find a way

GardLivingston89

but everyone i pick if i win you have to go? what if i pick 2 sections at the same show?

You will only win one pair of tickets per show. When the email goes out for the announcement, they do a good, detailed job explaining how the lottery works. It will be pretty easy to figure out!

GardLivingston89

lol kk im just getting excited

Oh, Columbus would be nice. Oh, it would be so, so, so nice.

However... I'm not feeling it. Buttt...ya never know!

We're super easy to get to. Affordable hotel rates, affordable parking (I think it was under $5 for most cars in 2010.) Oh, please, oh please.

Yes. If you win the tickets, your card will be charged and the tickets will be there waiting for you. If you can't go, you have two options:
1) 10C can upgrade someone at the back of the venue, usually someone with a kid.
2) 10C can mail your tickets to you after the tour.

Be absolutely sure you can attend the shows you want.

I'm buying a lottery ticket tomorrow morning and hopefully I win the jackpot. Then I will put in for every show on this un-official tour. Do the whole tour, and who knows what after that. I won't be home for a while. That sounds so much better than working for the next 20-30 years...Ya, that's what I'll do. Then I can pay for all you crazy peoples tickets. Really don't want to go to work tomorrow... maybe I'll call in sick.. wait for the announcement.

Wish me luck !

lol

Are lottery reserved tickets always good seats?
Or are they just "in the building"?

GardLivingston89

i think they try and get the best seats for us. i dont think you would get seats real far away or anything

What's up with the seats at the BACK of the band? I've never seen a band which had audience behind their back. Is this only for venues in America? I do not think this is possible in the Ziggo Dome..?

I really hope they add a single ticket option, but I know that's just wishful thinking.

Try ticketmaster at general on sale for 1 seat. I've gotten an "unofficial" 10c seat single before.

Some venues have an odd number of seats per aisle. 10c sells in pairs, so there's a single open to ticketmaster in every row if that's the case for that venue.

Yeah, my main gripe with TC shows. Still, usually trade spares if needed!
