  • I got my email at 3.25am GMT. Over the moon to have got Seattle GA night 2! 24 years of this great band, never in my wildest dreams could i have imagined to be travelling to Seattle! If I could tell me 16year old self that when I was 40 I'd be seeing 5 shows in Europe, and then Seattle?! Nope, mind has been blown!!!

  • Seattle N2 Res - won
    Seattle N1 Res - won

    We're flying in from Ottawa and plan on doing as much touristy stuff as we can. As much as I'd love to be in the pit, I don't want to devote the better part of one of my days to being in line or get a decent spot. I'm 5'4, so being at the back wasn't really an option haha.

    Stoked to be in the building! You killed it this time 10 C!

    I was 1 for 1 but don't understand why those that lose their round 1 pick don't get any priority ranking for round 2. Seeing a few fans get shut out of multiple shows, yet others going 2 for 2 doesn't seem right,especially if those shut out #2 pick was for reserved.

    1st choice - Seattle N1 GA - WON 
    2nd choice - Seattle N2 GA - lost 
    3rd choice - Seattle N2 reserved - WON 
    4th choice - Seattle N1 reserved - n/a 

    I'm sooo happy I was inspired enough to put Seattle 2 reserved as my 3rd choice , was tempted to put it as my 4th and I think i would have lost it then. 

    Still got both Seattle so I'm happy, also maybe reserved seating would not be that bad after jumping in the GA for the first one. 
    Viena - 2020 cancelled, 2022 cancelled ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Congrats to all. Seems like most everyone got something and are happy 

    thank you to 10C for securing so many tickets in advance to take care of fans!  

    Maybe the complaining about the cost of the tickets will stop that most of us don’t have to deal with the scam that is Ticketmaster. if the cost is a little more for the them hold back more tickets for us it’s worth it!

    see ya in Chicago and Boston!

    Can't imagine how that could be worked into an algorithm. You can only notice that sorta detail after the dust settles. When your top picks are high demand shows, that's the risk.

    I cannot believe I seriously lost every single one... I don't even know what to do now... I didn't enter for the ticketmaster verified presale (Because I figured there was no way I could lose all 3), and probably wont be able to get anything now. Correct?
    Don’t get discouraged. You may end up paying a little more but just buy tickets online. Try Ticketmaster or shop around. I’m going to both shows in Seattle and didn’t put in for the 10c tickets. Only trying for Missoula and Chicago via 10c. I’ll find a way in to the Seattle shows. Might pay for it but I won’t  miss it! 
    Yeah, exactly, don't get discouraged.   There's options out there and TM will most likely do a ticket drop.  Keep your eyes peeled.
    Well before anything there is the verified sale, and I stupidly didn't register for that because I didn't think that I would have to, and I feel as though there will not be any left over by the time it hits general sale on the 21st.
    Already on aftermarket sales. Also will be 10 clobbers selling as well. Find 2 single ga tickets

    Can you transfer a ticketmaster code?  I registered for the presale but won't be trying to buy tickets.

    The way it was described by the guy from Ticketmaster, that has an impact on getting selected for Verified Fan. I'm sure selling one pair wouldn't make a huge difference, but I also don't see any upside. I think the best move for people who get codes and don't need them is to just sit the sale out.
