    My 1st and 2nd choices are Chicago GA 18th and 20th. 3rd and 4th are Chicago reserved for 18th and 20th. If I get all of them, I'll have a set of tickets for each show that I can't use or transfer. I'm kinda nervous about this as the drawing nears. Is there really no way to transfer extra 10C tickets now?
    You can not win twice for the same show. If you win GA for night 1 you will not be considered for the reserved drawing of night 1.

    Really hoping not a lot of people put Fenway 1 for their first priority.  That is my only option that I can afford/do.  So fingers crossed

    I'm in same boat, Bos1 or bust.

    It will end up at about 75% and my wild guess is 10% will have it with priority lower than first. So decent odds but no guarantee.

    Anyone agree?

    Seems like a reasonable guess to me. Definitely a lot of people with that one at first priority with it being accessible to so many on the east coast and on a holiday weekend. Unfortunately means there may be a few that miss out but hopefully not many

    Getting a little nervous ..ok ALOT nervous lol Wrigley 1ga and wrigley  1reserved for me and they keep dropping. Probably a stupid question..but with the new ticket rules other than a couple people getting an extra ga (which is doubtful) no other way to get two tix together unless ticletmaster vf?

    Today is the day!  Come on GA for both Seattle shows!  OR at least for one of them and Reserved for the other.  Though, yes I'd be totally stoked with reserved for both if that is the way it works out - but I really want GA for both.

    OK, so I've been a fan since '93, but have never been to a live show...CRAZY, I know!  I'm in for the second Fenway show as my 1st choice, but want to ask the experienced bunch, what is the major plus of going to two shows in the same stadium?  Just trying to gauge if I should consider trying to go to the first show, since it would be tough to be away from my family for 5 days vs 3.  
    Yes this is crazy. If you've been a fan that long and are not familiar with their live shows or set lists, then I don't know what to tell ya. But the benefit/privilege of getting to see back to back concerts in the same city/venue is that Pearl Jam varies their set lists significantly from show to show, sol if you want to see as many favorite songs as possible you increase those odds by going to both shows. The atmosphere and energy varies from show to show, so while there will be 15-20 repeat songs (the hits) you will get to see a unique show each night considering they play over two and half hours each concert. If you can afford it I highly recommend it. But it's also not the end of the World to only go to one of the two since you're still getting a huge concert experience. 
    The whole point of being a PJ fan is seeing them live IMO.

    Do you not get a confirmation screen if you have submitted yours?  I keep pressing submit and the screen doesnt change.

    First time in lottery. I have "pending" $1 charges on my credit card account, but they do that right when you request it right? It doesn't mean you got tickets.

    I too am shocked someone could halve been a fan since 93 and not have seen this band live before now... to say you've been missing out would be understatement of the year :) 

    Wanted to add that there are not necessarily 15-20 repeat songs. I was at both nights of Fenway 2016 and they played over 6.5 Hours total. 68 Songs (Avg of 34 per night) with ONLY 3 REPEATS IIRC. It was essentially one long ass 6.5 hour long concert.. an incredible experience. Hoping for something similar at Wrigley this year.

    Again, first time lotto. Do they usually update whether you got them or not on the same day they close or does it take a day or two?

    Fair enough. I was speculating on the number of repeats, but wow didn't realize that the last Fenway shows were that low. That's awesome.
