We’re aiming to trade MSG GA for Baltimore GA and it seems pretty straightforward - get walked in as their guest in Baltimore and walk them in as our guest in NYC. Meet at an agreed upon time outside the venue prior to each show and stay in touch by phone. Hassle free and no stress.

Should only have to meet and walk in for Baltimore, then you can just transfer the NYC ticket.

I'm still constantly checking my email... just in case. #abdominaldiscomfort

Oh you’re right. Didn’t consider that.

How many years have most of you been tenclub members. Seat locations based on seniority. Me been a member for 4 years and anxiously waiting on my seat location

I joined in 1998 after seeing them at Molson Park in Barrie.  First Ten Club show in Toronto in October 5, 2000, I won row 2 lottery in front of Mike.  That was simply amazing.  Going to all 4 Canadian shows on the upcoming tour in March.  Went for BA for all.  Hoping for one GA and the rest reserved but will take whatever I get and be very happy.  The Ten Club did an amazing job with this lottery and the Safetix to prevent scalping.  It's a lot of work for them to do this and get us our tickets.  They also acquired more tickets than ever before for us Ten Club members so more of us are in the building.  We used to pick them up the day of the show and that's when our seat locations were revealed.  That was very exciting to be honest.  The fact we find out this week is really early and a tribute to how far the process has come.  Thank you Ten Club. :-)

The ‘98 Barrie show turned out much better than I expected it would (especially with the help of the weather). You were right behind me at the ‘00 Toronto show, I was front row in front of Mike (received his stage setlist). That concert was outstanding, Stone was on fire after the debacle in Montreal. There wasn’t a lottery in place though - blocks of tickets were assigned based on seniority. 

Remember Eddie talking about the guy with the watermelon on his head at the Barrie show?

What pisses me off is that there is no reason why the F2F marketplace is not open yet, and I am guessing this is one of the main causes why.

I am desperately trying to figure out how I am gonna get into the Baltimore show, and the fact that any 10C lotto winners can't sell any possible extras because A. they don't even know where they are sitting and B. couldn't post their tickets even if they did is becoming infuriating to me.

10c people don't even have their tickets yet; there would be literally nothing to sell. 

That's my entire point.

How does it take 2 weeks just to allocate the seats?  I don't care so much about the delay in finding out where I am sitting for the MSG show.

I care because neither does the hypothetical Baltimore 10C winner that wants to post his extra and can't because of this interminable delay. 

Really? Desperate to get in to Baltimore when you have MSG tickets? I also have MSG and would really like to go to Baltimore (have a whole day planned with a friend) but I wouldn’t categorize as DESPERATE since I was awarded to ability to at least go to one east coast show. Patience my friend.

Pearl Jam does their best to keep costs for the fans down (cheap tix and cheap membership). I would gather that means they don’t have a bloated expensive management team. I’m sure you wouldn’t work around the clock to allocate seats for your whiney $20/yr fan club members so they can get their seats a few days earlier. Plus they have other shit to do I’m sure.

I have a non-refundable hotel room and train ticket booked.

I am into this show for like $250 already, which I would rather not just completely piss away. 

The more time I have to figure this out, the better shot I have at working on securing a ticket.

Why on earth would you book a non-refundable hotel before you had tickets?  To save like $5 using the prepay option?

Relaxing is not really my bag.  

The division I'm in at my company gave me 'The High Octane Award' at our annual dinner last year, which was not even an established award.  They created it, just to give to me.

I want things before I myself even know I want them, and not one second later.

I'm in for 2 shows,  Don't care where I'm at. Didn't have to stress public sales, and have always been happy with where 10C has put me.

Me too, just happy to have a seat for the show

I guess my question is what the hell is ticketstoday, I go to tons of concerts and never used/heard of it. So even tho it’s through Ticketmaster, we're being in yet another ticket service? Don’t really understand this process as a whole. Not worried or anything, just seems odd. 

ticketstoday has been rebranded as ticketsfriday

That is awesome! Are you sure there wasn't a lottery for rows 1&2 and 9&10 in 2000?  I am not sure how I got row 2 right behind you if i joined in 1998?  Anyways, I just remember how mesmerizing it was watching Mike all night.  Both in energy and musicianship.
Will I be seeing you in Toronto, Ottawa, Quebec or Hamilton this go? :-)

2000 didn’t have lottery as far as I recall, but it was a tour where you could only get 1 pair of ten club tickets per tour. I had 3rd row in PHX 2000 and didn’t get anywhere near that in 03 or after. Of course GA changes all that.

I’m not sure why people did this. Clearly it backfired this time. 

Non-refundable hotel rooms are just a bad idea in general. Amtrak gets expensive closer to the travel time but you can always take Megabus.
