I heard an interesting thought the other day. We all seem to accept the better seats for sporting events costing more. Why would concerts be any different? If charging more helps keep other tickets lower than so be it.
It's capitalism. I don't blame the band for trying to get as much money as they can.
Yeah, I bet their bank accounts really need it. Bleed it out of the fans. Give me a break.
If you're going to take the "man of the people" route, you should be going to club shows and not sweating what the biggest bands in the world charge

It's not scalping if they're selling them themselves.. lol.
My tip is be patient. I bought Platinum tix for one of the Earthlings shows in Seattle and had I had any kind of patience I could of had seats in the first 6 rows for less than face value. Platinum tickets are a marathon not a race.
I guess these won't be the same as before covid when they were selling platinum tickets but the proceeds went to the charity?
They didn't call it platinum tickets. It was specifically for charity
this is incorrect...they were definitely platinum....also demand for PJ quadruples EV...it's all over....the hypocrisy rings LOUD
Any new realizations... would have to wait... Til he had more time,... more time... Time to dream,... to himself... he waves goodbye, To himself... I'll see you on the other side...

Denver is trickling tickets out.. 4 more released in sec 126 row 4 just now.. the bad news is the “market pricing” algorithms have the PREMIUM tix up to $1750 per ticket on that row. This was a bulletin and not meant to spark debate. I will say that being a 10C 166xxx and having 2 seats 16 rows behind these seats IN THE SAME SECTION is giving me a vibe. Glad to be in the building nonetheless

I went to Brooklyn Steel last night. I hate the venue but $35 shows are great!

At what point will we not need a password to buy the PJ Premium? Trying to take my 12yo son to his first show (St. Louis), and some of the upper levels are actually good seats for less than I thought it may cost.

Wondering the same thing. At what point does this open up to everyone who would want to buy tickets?

x3. I felt like I could die in there when I saw LCD Soundsystem in Nov. It felt like a packed gym floor at a school dance, and was hard to get out to the exits.

I thought they said there wouldn't be a public onsale.

How do you feel about Music Hall of Williamsburg? Hitting that for the first time in May.
Sounds right. I'm seeing public onsale as TBA with timelines for VF/premium up to event date.
I just saw that too. So verified fan sale goes right up to the day of the show. The premium tickets, which are on the same timeline, you need the VF code to view/purchase. Doesn’t seem like there’s any intention to open this up to anyone else or anyone on the waitlist (like myself) any time soon, which is frustrating.

They would be crazy doing that limiting the market to buy their jacked up priced tickets.
Fan to fan is coming soon and premium tickets will be mixed in with then likely and it will be open to everyone.

I find the original announcement confusing. The verified fan Ticketmaster sale functions as the public onsale.
This ticket system is a mess! Been in the club 20 years, and never had these issues. It's what separated them from other bands. Fair prices and good seats. I lost my job during Covid, and haven't recovered, and all I wanted was to get in the building at MSG, and possibly Camden, but $700-$5000 a ticket??!! Really!!!??? And I can't even buy( not that I could afford) because I was "waitlisted" for Verified. In the past, losing 10C lottery meant a chance at fair prices on the Ticketbastard site on sale. That's how I got in to MSG night 2 the last time they played there. They've jacked up prices and eliminated true fans from getting that second chance. Disappointing "return" to touring, boys....
Since it looks like you just joined the Ten Club, your tickets would not have been through the Ten Club. You would have missed that lottery. So, your anger towards Ten Club is misguided. I am not sure what city you went for with Ticketmaster, but remember unless you went for one of the newly announced shows, the only tickets that were available were whatever tickets had been refunded from the original date. So, there were not that many left. The platinum pricing - while unfortunate - has been a part of Ticketmaster for years. It is fairly new to Pearl Jam, but that is what happened this time around. I agree that sucks. But had you signed up earlier for Ten Club you could have been part of the Ten Club lottery and had a chance to get tickets at face value. So I am not sure why you are blaming them.
