Not near 50%.
Ive always  wondered  as long as it sells out which most could with 10c alone.  Why they  dont grant all 10c who would like to go . Make sell out 10c shows. Awesomeness 

I don't think as many shows could sell out on 10C alone as folks assume.
Especially if they do a reasonable tour. If its like 2018 and there's 7 shows total and folks are forced to travel they can get a lot more members to go to a given show due to less opportunity, but if they do a proper tour (and hopefully a fall leg makes 2020 as close to a proper tour as we've seen since 2013), then I think only a very few markets could basically sell out on 10C only, NYC, and maybe Chicago, Philly, Boston, Seattle.

Right? We got all sorts of people complaining that more tickets should be made available to 10c members (for MSG especially), but I don't see those people buying tickets to QC, OKC, etc. 

MSG is 4 hours from my house. Why on gods earth would i put in for okc??? Smh

Because you want to see Pearl Jam?

So you guys don't think the 10C seating charts were reserved for the club lotteries? Just based off these presales and public sales where supply was extremely limited, the 10C seats they had marked out on the seating charts may have been accurate. In which case, 50% is about right or may even be on the low-end. 
LA practically had 2/3 of the arena marked as 10C seats. MSG/BALT had everything but the upper sections from stage on. They sold 4-5000 seats in the presale and probably less than that in the public sale.

Yeah, based on my experience with Baltimore, I assumed 10C got 40-50%, VF got 40-50%, Platinum & other holdback got about 5% and general got about 10 tickets.

Thinking out loud:

Avg. arena holds 18,000 people. Let's say 1500-2000 people win pairs (yes I know about singles this tour...). 3000-4000 tickets of 18K = 16 - 22%.

I'd guess 20%..... 25% at most? 30% on a GENEROUS negotiation?

In 2003, MSG had 7000 for night 1 and 8000 for night 2.  I think even back then they were saying how they were able to obtain more than usual for that show due to the expected demand.  Hopefully, they got even more this time around.

No, they weren't fully reserved for 10C. I looked at 4 shows yesterday during the Verified Fan sale and all 4 had seats for sale in sections shaded during the 10C lottery.

So that's roughly 40% to 10C at MSG back in 2003.  So maybe 50% is not far off.

It sucks that we all didnt get into all the shows we want, but the only U.S. shows I see on StubHub are NY and DEN.  In that way, we should all thank 10C.  Fans have the tickets.

I actually think 10c has 50-60% based on what is available in the secondary for MSG at least

Agreed.  We can nitpick a few things, but all in all, it was a pretty damn good system for achieving its sole objective - getting tickets in the hands of its fan without completely gouging them.  Places like Baltimore will be 90% or more true fans, lots of energy.

Right, this is pretty close to a 10C only tour.  I hope they fix the odds tool next time and it would be nice if they do VF entries after the 10C results.

Looking at the Stubhub site, it looks like Denver 10c tickets could mainly be the floor and 100 level.  There are virtually none "available" on those secondary sites in these sections, which makes me believe they are all being held back for us!  I hope so!   Shows packed full of diehard PJ fans make the energy of show amazing!

I said this in another thread....the fact that the venues (with the exception of MSG, Baltimore and Denver) all had a 99% chance of getting tickets when the 10C lottery began is an indicator (obviously) that they had more tickets than the fan club members put in for.  The fact is that you could get a ticket if you wanted one to nearly all the venues on the Spring 2020 Tour.  It is also apparent that MSG had more tix available to 10c members than (ever?) before.  It was just highly sought after.  Let's be honest, the NE is going to get additional shows in the Fall....so no reason to get too worked up over missing MSG this time around....you will have the Barclay's option in October (says Dimitrios-not really...but maybe).  Nice work 10c...you succeeded in achieving what you wanted-getting Pearl Jam fans into the building and eliminating the secondary market on this tour (outside of NY and CO).  
Btw-if the fact that both NY and CO were exceedingly difficult to get (and different from other venues) doesn't give a little insight into the effect of the secondary/re-sale/jacked up price market, I don't know what does.

Based on the horrendous VF seats people got I wouldn't be shocked by 30 to 40%. shows were sold out in public on sale in mere minutes.

The VF seats weren't horrendous at 10am yesterday...a sea of seats as far as my fingers could click.
