Solid work from the ten club.

Great thread! I want to give a shout out to 10C as well. A few of us were having technical difficulties on Sunday when trying to edit our picks; we got totally shut out from the lottery with an "error" message that would not go away. I sent a frantic email to 10C on Sunday and got a response early that evening. They assured me they were working on the problem. By 7:00 PM the issue was resolved and those of us who were affected were able to get back in the lottery. I spent all day Sunday feeling sick and my husband was about to kill me but I never lost faith that they would work it out, and they did! They have helped me before when I had an issue with my membership renewal deadline that occured during a lottery. They have our backs and I am very appreciative. Thanks again 10 C!!!

Here's what I know, the last time i bought Ten Club tickets 3 years ago it was $1 dollar cheaper.

To that I say, good job Ten Club and Band!

That is also totally true! The prices barely changed at all since 2013.

unless you earn a living in CAD dollars!!!

I give BIG THANKS to the PJ 10club...can only imagine the enormous effort it takes to pull off a PJ ticket lottery
amongst all the other things they do for PJ fans.

Thank you 10C for giving a lowly 6 month member who's been a fan for half my life the chance to finally see this band from the GA at the Garden. I never thought I'd have the chance to experience it!

I'm just over a year here, though I've been a fan since I saw them in 1991 (didn't know who they were at the time, lol). After 25 years, I get to see them again in my hometown (Toronto). Had I not gotten my one choice, I'd be unhappy to be sure, but hope I'd still see this system as fair.

All sympathy to those who were shut out, if it's any consolation I won't be putting in for the rumoured second show here, in part because I got mine already (share the joy, lol).

Also, thanks to those who shared their wisdom on this matter, and helped keep folks (a bit more, lol) calm and rational.

At first it looked like there were tons of people who got shut, got jumped in priority selections etc.. Like the drawing was potentially flawed. However, after seeing the thread of those who won and what their selections were, it looks like it ran as expected and those shut out are either the vocal minority or those that swung for the fences (knowing the odds) and just missed. I think there is still some room for tweaks but it's better than F5, and I always had success with F5. Just didn't like having to do it for 12 hours straight to get it. Well done

I couldn't be happier with 10c at the moment. I feel for the members who didn't get there choice of tickets but more tickets will be available through TM. It is a game of chance after all. I've fallen short of many shows but that's just the name of the game.

Good job 10c and good luck to members who will be trying tomorrow

1st time not securing hometown tickets from 10C; however, should that take away from the fact I've secured 10C to all those previous hometown (and then some) shows? Absolutely not. I'll still be in the building, I'll still enjoy the show, and I'll still continue to submit future entries. When you've been in the 10C for 20+ years and add up total membership dues vs. the experiences and memories made at past shows I feel as though I've cheated the 10C in a way. A minor bump on the road doesn't ruin an entire road trip.

A great post. An amazing post. A great fucking amazing post. A fucking amazingly great post.

Lottery seems very fair. ... I don't see how another system could be much better.

Thanks 10c!

One pair per membership would ensure that more members actually get tickets.

So I should suffer the consequences because someone put msg ga for the first 2 priorities, msg reserved for the next 2, philly ga for the next 2, etc?

Empty Glass

I agree. The amount of work they must do to secure goes unrecognized to often. It's easy to crap on them when we don't score tix.

Thanks 10c and keep up the good work.

Now...off to the public sale and hope. Daddy needs a new pair of shoes

I always appreciate the 10C seats more after I sit in regular seats.

We are experiencing higher traffic than usual. Your wait time is less than 45 minutes.

Yup. This is why i love the 10c lottery. No hassle, no stress, no frustration (until you maybe don't win I guess). Just submit your choices and wait for the drawing.

Thanks again 10c! It may not be perfect but lottery seems like an extremely fair and easy system!
