And one other thing. I know there will be other legs to the tour and I am forever grateful this band is still touring and making music!! 

But how on earth are they only playing one show at the probably the highest demand place on earth (MSG) !!??

Venue availability. Probably lucky to get the one show. Someone posted a schedule somewhere and this is sandwiched between a number of events.

Yeah. I get it. We do have other venues in the area (brooklyn, long island). We'll see what fall has in store. 

Get this, stubhub already has tickets starting at $488 for a single at MSG. Sickening

That doesn't apply to NY sadly.

Just got Hamilton!  Only Toronto left for me.  Fingers crossed!  I knew Toronto could be potentially the most difficult.

Ticketmaster owns the secondary market too tho.Left hand is saying we’re here to help while their right hand is stealing your wallet...

The price with fees in 2016 came to about 220 CDN a pair so about 110CDN a ticket.  In 2020 all in with fees they are approx 300CDN a pair or 150CDN a ticket.  I got tickets to all the shows I wanted.  So naturally I would say I like the system employed here better.  It’s still not perfect and probably never will be but I think the 10club ticketing has improved vastly this go around.

I went with best available. even though my wife is as tall as a keebler elf, she said "whatever you want", but i'm guessing, since this is my 3rd or 4th member number, that probably means we'll be reserved. which is fine with me. i only care about being in the building. everything else is gravy. 

Ha!! But getting GA has nothing to do with your seniority and/or how many member numbers you've had.  It will only play a roll with seat location (distance from stage) for reserved! 

I'll never understand how these lotteries work.

This is how I see it. They collect  the GA and BA names, regardless of priority. they draw names, if your name is drawn you got that pick. this is the only way someone has the same show as a 3rd choice gets it over someone with a 1st choice. Doesn't happen much with GA but does with reserved. Maybe, maybe not

Kinda defeats the purpose of prioritizing shows, doesnt it?

In a way it does, it's not iron clad theory, but does explain how one can get 3rd priority over reserved 1st priority. Also,lends well to the idea that one who,puts in for the show, regardless of GA or RES is still someone who wants that show and would be part of a lottery drawing.

For Europe it was clearly stated they’d draw 1st priority first and any remaining tickets would then be drawn among the 2nd priority entries

Im happy I got my pair to Toronto.  I still need another pair if I can get them for Toronto.  I’m thinking what’s left in the Verified TM presale and public sale are probably not going to be great but I’ll have a gander anyhow at least during the Verified TM sale.  The fan exchange is great but it’s unfortunate that if I am able to get tickets through there it’s because someone couldn’t go for whatever reason.

Just realized those who got reserved won't know their seat location until after the regular TM on sale. Not too happy about that since crappy seats are in the 10 Club pool this go around. 

I realized that too...I wish I knew what section I am in at least.  I've tried to find out from the venue but no luck so far.

Anyone know where the 10c tickets are for the Hamilton show if you selected reserved seating?  Just found out that I wont know my seats until after the general public sale.

First timer using the ten club presale, I put my reservation in on Monday with my credit card info, submitted it then received my confirmation email. The email said “request received, you’ll hear back from us 1/19”. But I looked in my MY TICKET tab on my ten club account today and it says I have not entered any ticket drawings. Is this something to be concerned about that for some reason my request didn’t go through??? 

Again, first timer here, I just wanna make sure I didn’t miss out lol

It looks like you are a new 10c member, but perhaps it is because you have signed into the forum for the first time. If you just became a member recently, you may not have been eligible.

Since the lottery is being run by Ticketmaster, nothing will show on the My Tickets page. You are good.

With this info (sadly I just realized this crappiness too), anyone know how 10c will work this? 

My thought is, 10c works with TM to inform of number of RS awarded and then will release the remaining seats to TM for gen sale.  But what do I know, lol.
