I'm going to doubt anyone but locals has Monday night in San Diego as there first choice. I added it as like #7. If it were a Saturday night, it goes to #1 or #2.
You guys don't understand the odds.. there are 5 threads right now that explain why the % doesn't tell you the real likelihood of getting tickets. The odds takes into account even people who put the show as their 7th choice

Yes, I now see that my post about about odds were mistaken. Sorry for the bad info. You're lumped in with the unwashed masses from everywhere. Sorry about that!
Was no problemo in '95, '13 and many others. Uggh. LOCALS ONLY. Sorry in advance, but do you really need to go to 8 shows per tour? Whateva, whateva
Odds are 99% for getting in the building. Good stuff!.
And using your logic, only people in 10 cities should be able to see Pearl Jam this year?
There is no local Pearl Jam show. None. Doesn’t exist.
This. No way to rewind the clock and roll back technology and eliminate supply and demand. Don't bitch about access to tickets unless you want to go back to only getting to request ONE show. Even then there's no way in hell 10C is going to volunteer to apply better odds to "locals" or in state people. Not realistic. Be happy with what we have. It could be a lot less.
I won't change direction, and I won't change my mind - E.V.

I love the locals only take. Too funny. You have a 99% chance of entry, you need to be GA at a show?
My wave, locals only! 🌊
Gracias. I was being only half-serious about localism. Way rather be GA, but there's no bad seat at sdsu.
But I do think that when it comes to the fan club (getting key seats) there should be a show number limit. Apply for as many as ya want, but you shouldn't get a ton of them.

Seeing that there is a 99% chance that you can get a reserved seat at nearly all of the venues in the Spring Tour (Not MSG or Balt), why not put in for all of the shows?....if you can afford to go. Fills up the venue with 10C fans....doesn't steal a seat from a 10C member.
No pit tickets. Didn't bother with reserved seats, I'd rather scalp a single pit ticket. Once again, stop being obsessive, greedy, touring superfans. As Matt Cameron said, quite eloquently, "Where do they get the money?" Yes, he was poking fun at you.
Sorry, for real, but I just don't get it. Have fun.

So you’re saying they should go the “same setlist every night” model??
my favorite tour was in 2000. 6 shows driving to each with a different person. Memories and friends made. I’m older now and am good with 1-2 per tour, but to each their own. I get it.

Nice thought. And I think since I am a fan, and 10 club member, I should be able to do anything within the rules and my budget to see as many shows as I want. Good luck with trying to limit fans of a band from seeing shows they are willing to pay for.

Not what I was saying (limiting via a rule). I am saying that people should police themselves.
Pearl Jam has opted to use Ticketmaster’s SafeTix
technology for its upcoming tour, despite the band’s rocky history with
the ticketing giant.
The US rock band said the move gives fans the “best chance to buy
ticket at face value for this tour,” as SafeTix tackles touts by
automatically refreshing tickets every few seconds to offer a unique
barcode that can’t be screenshotted.
They said in the announcement: “Pearl Jam has decided that tickets
will be mobile only and strictly non-transferable. Ticket purchasers
will be required to enter the venue with their guests. Ticketmaster
SafeTix mobile tickets will be issued for all tickets for all shows and
requires a smartphone to display. No other tickets will be accepted for
entry.”
The Gigaton Tour, titled after its new album, will kick off at Toronto’s ScotiaBank arena on March 18.
Pearl Jam previously spoke out against Ticketmaster and its dominance
in the market and began boycotting venues that used the ticketing giant
as its vendor. The band also spoke before the U.S. Congress, arguing
that they had tried to keep ticket prices below $20, but Ticketmaster
added high service fees.
Ticketmaster said in a statement about the band’s decision: “Pearl
Jam has a long-standing commitment to protecting and advocating for
their fans, and keeping ticket prices fair is central to that promise.
To ensure tickets are not offered to fans above face value, the band
decided that all tickets for their tour would not be transferable to
avoid resale at inflated prices. Non-transferability is being
extensively communicated to fans throughout the announcement and sales
process.
“Recognising that some fans may be unable to attend due to unforeseen
circumstances, the band also requested that Ticketmaster develop a
first-of-its-kind, Fan-to-Fan Face Value Ticket Exchange, where fans can
sell their tickets at face value (including fees from original
purchase) to other fans. The Exchange is free for both buyers and
sellers to use without any additional fees. To eliminate consumer
confusion, Ticketmaster has also notified major secondary marketplaces
and resellers that tickets for this tour are not available for resale.”
Fans must sign up through Ticketmaster’s Verified Fan programme to
gain access to the presale on January 23, followed by a general onsale
on January 24.
Ticketmaster’s Fan-To-Fan Exchange will open for the tour on February
18 where fans can resell their tickets for the price they paid,
including fees, and no fees will be charged to exchange users for buying
or selling tickets on the exchange.

No paper tickets for this tour. Only digital, on a phone.
