So if you let your membership lapse, your seniority decreases, therefore reserved seating is your only option? Did somebody lose seniority here, because they didn't renew? Is this the point?
Before the Missoula show in 2012... there wasn't GA for US shows except for festivals. They had all reserved seating on the floor. Most of this floor seating (except rows 1 & 2 and I believe rows 8 & 9) was assigned by your seniority in the 10 Club. The lower your 10 Club number...the closer you were to the stage. Adding GA to the front part of the floor took away this reserved area in front of the stage, and moved the seniority based reserved seating up into the lower bowl sections of arenas. If you forgot to renew your membership...you had to rejoin the club and were given a much higher number.
Sorry I’m late to reading this thread but I had to chime in here... There were tons of GA PJ shows in the 90s in the US and not just the club show/lolla era. Soldier Field 95 was GA. So were the San Diego 95 shows. So was almost all (if not all) of the 96 tour in North America was GA. 98 had a few Albuquerque, PHX, Vegas, Sacramento and Barrie. All the Showbox shows were GA 96/02/04, the Borgata shows in 2005 were GA, the Vic was GA in 2007...
After Roskilde, they largely went to seats on the floor (except some smaller shows) but before that there was plenty of GA. What Dave said was almost right (generally speaking but there were exceptions between 02-12) about GA returning to the US but I’m not sure if he’s a newer fan or just didn’t know about the 90s shows. Not talking shit just want to clear this up.
Since the original thread was about holy grails I’ll post some of the old stubs just to illustrate my point. Including my 96 key arena fan club GA, which was my first ‘big’ GA show. Hope this helped paint a clearer picture.

Lightning Bolt skate deck. Either of the two. I can’t remember the last time I’ve even seen one come up for sale. 🤤

There are only 50 of the fish so that could be a reason.
Wow I knew they were rare. Didn’t know they were that rare.

I don't know what mine is at this point. Benny? But I don't think I could ever pay what it's worth. Or Live on Two Legs Vinyl. I have my St. Louis 98. I love the Zurich 96 poster (the polar bear). All the Way vinyl single.
