Pissed off fan

Glarocca95

I don't understand how I cannot get tickets to the 2022 tour when I had tickets to the cancelled 2020 tour. I had tickets for the Baltimore show and decided to keep my tickets in lieu of a refund. Then they announce the 2022 tour and because the venue is under remodel the entire show was cancelled. Instead of giving me tickets to another show I am refunded and have to enter into the lottery again. I do and for some reason my request for the Nashville show was unfulfilled. Now I have to try and get tickets through Ticketmasters verified fan sale which probably will not happen since we all know how Ticketmaster works. I have been waiting for 2 years to see a live show and because of some technicality a loyal fan club member who pays his dues every year will likely miss out.  Not sure why I am being left out in the cold when none of this was my fault and feel I should have been given priority and been able to select tickets to the show of my choosing.

You explain why pretty well within your next few sentences.

If the Eddie Vedder solo shows are any indication, there may be plenty blocks of seats released between now and showtime through the public sale.

Go Beavers

People will be selling tickets as we get closer to the date.

Definitely feel for Baltimore people. Would have been nice if they gave you all priority access.

I appreciate the comments, just frustrating. I hope some tickets come available and the price is not to inflated.

i am still holding out hope for them to come through on their promise that they will do something special for those of us that were still holding bmore tickets as they said when they canceled. would have been nice if this was the special thing, but still hopeful. at the same time, but also... WHY couldn't they just come to dc when they found out bmore was renovating??? they haven't been to dc proper since 2009. and haven't been in the region (other than bmore) since 2010.

The only solution is will call only and non transferability for fan club seats

The fact people will decide not to go and sell later (even at face value) is just a big of a problem as scalpers.  I’ll never understand why so many people buy tickets to shows they aren’t even reasonably sure they are attending. 

Those unnecessary ticket requests all lessen your chances of getting selected and the fact it isn’t even for profit almost makes it more frustrating. To me at least

Yup. Six years and counting…

Hopefully they will still do something for Baltimore and Raleigh. They should reschedule shows in both places.

Truth! Can’t wait to attend that make-up show in 2030

There will be plenty of Nashville circulating on F2F. Happened back in 2020, and I’m sure lots of people will place theirs back on the market once they realize their high 10c number doesn’t get them a great seat or a friend spots them an extra. Just need a little patience and know at least you won’t pay 3-4x face to get into the stadium.

I have no idea how this F2F thing works, but I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for it.

This is nothing to be pissed off about. It’s a concert. If you don’t go to a Pearl Jam show in 2022, it is not the end of the world.

100%. I was 1 of the fortunate 2. 

But for the other 18k, tough pill for sure especially with hardly any notice and it being the bands choice. I think that’s the big difference.  They logistically couldn’t just switch to DC on this tour, but they could have logistically re-done Raleigh several times since.

You can be pissed about something that you really enjoy and look forward to.

Sorry. It stinks.

I also got shafted by the Baltimore ticket decision but this band can be an impossible ticket, especially in the northeast and other big cities. Which of course makes the Baltimore decision to do nothing even more perplexing.

Hang in there and keep trying. As long as we keep at it, we have a chance.

I'm on the other side of this idea... I'm not as pissed about missing one show as I am about how the entire Baltimore debacle was handled.  Even if they said today that they were having a Baltimore show, I'd still be pissed and not excited about it (given it plenty of thought, too).

Basically pulled the rug out from under us after two years of nothing - Raleigh was a late decision but at least it was based on a moral reason that required immediate action in days or hours, but they had literally months to find a solution to the Baltimore venue being renovated, and still made a last-minute decision that had a bunch of fans fall flat on their faces. 

Raleigh was absolutely worse, time-wise, but Baltimore just feels different and completely took the wind out of my sails in terms of wanting to see the band right now.

Between the verified fan sale and the F2F sales, you'll be able to get tickets.  Just be patient.  

LukinFan

They should move the Baltimore show to the Pier 5 Amphitheatre. That place is awesome!

You think it was a last-minute decision to cancel Baltimore? How so? Last-minute to what? Raleigh was last-minute, as people found out on their way to the show. It's not like any of us had to cancel flight or hotel rooms over Baltimore. 

Would you rather they just booked a show there right after the reno was geeen-lit? That would have gone over great - "Hwy PJ fans, Baltimore show next Tuesday!" 

Are you privy to information the rest of us aren't? Do you know that they weren't trying to figure something out? Maybe they wanted to keep the show in Baltimore, not DC? I know they're close, but it's not like we're talking Minneapolis & St Paul. Maybe Stone had a crab costume he REALLY wanted to break out. Point is, we don't know what went on behind the scenes, so to say, "They didn't even TRY!" is nothing more than rank speculation.

We're all upset about the cancelation, and most of us don't think they'll follow through on the promise to "make things right", but until someone with actual inside info comes out and tells me what the band did/didn't do, I'm not going to get angry about stuff I imagined they did.

I choose not to enter these lotteries specially for NY,Boston,Philly the chances are always insanely low! I feel better to just let go, it’s not worth the disappointment of not scoring.
I’ve paid my dues since April 93 never let It lapse not once seeing lots of great shows with great seats but these days I just don’t have any interest in the band, So I'm basically paying to post with the hope I’ll use my number one day again to see them but for now I’m good with not seeing them! I feel for those who feel that disappointment I’ve been there but no more..

F2F tickets are put back into the TM pool so just keep checking the event page after the verified sale is done. Tickets do go quickly and are not saved once in your cart, but if you're quick enough you should be able to score some tickets.

be careful of the jacked up prices on TM platinum tickets. I was dumb enough to pay 1K for 1 ticket to beacon. 

emotions run high thinking you will miss out but there will be other options to buy. the slowly released more for way below that price and there were plenty of people selling tickets before the show...

Again I am almost positive they said market priced tickets will not be dropped until a later time. I take that as Verified Fan ticket sale day will not have these available.

I've seen you post this in a few different threads and I'm curious. Why not even try to put in for the lottery? It costs you nothing (other than yearly fees which you don't seem to mind spending). Obviously it's disappointing to not get chosen but with your membership #, I would say the reward would far outweigh the disappointment. 

Unless you're using your lottery choices on shows outside of the northeast in the hopes of not wasting your top picks on saturated markets, then yes, that is more understandable. And you can avoid this post if that is indeed the situation

Sweet irony! That beautiful 10C number is put away.  Hopefully we get a show with floor seating at some point when that low number can shine!

I have a question if you have tickets and you want to sell them on fan to fan can you pick exactly who you want to sell them to I only wanted tickets to Camden and I got them in the ten club presale I am also registered for the verified fan I would be willing to try to buy tickets for your show but in no way do I want to go to that show or travel and I don't want to get stuck with them but I would certainly buy them and let you buy them off me for face value if I could do it for you FYI my member number is $449,XXX and is that even allowed I feel really bad for you you should have been automatically given tickets to another show because yours was canceled
