    I’m a little confused that the site lets you choose both (a) GA Pit or reserved; and also (b) reserved. If you select the former, shouldn’t that also cover the latter (as per the 10c instructions)? What does everyone think about this?
    It's to allow people to select if they want GA Pit or not.

    There is no just GA Pit option so if you want GA Pit, you select GA Pit or Reserved,

    If you only want Reserved, select only Reserved.

    If you want to be double sure and are good with GA and/or Reserved, select both  =)
    It’s the last part of this that confuses me. I’m looking to maximize my chances of getting in the building and would be happy with either GA or Reserved. So I’m assuming I should just choose the former option (“GA or Reserved”). My understanding from the 10c instructions is that if you select that option and you’re aren’t selected for GA, you are then automatically entered into the lottery for Reserved. What confuses me is that if I select “GA or Reserved,” the site still also lets me choose the latter option (“Reserved”). To further complicate matters, the site says, “Select all options below for Best Available. Selecting multiple seat preferences will increase your chances of getting tickets.” So does that mean to maximize my chances, I need to select both “GA or Reserved” and also “Reserved,” or is just selecting the former sufficient because it appears to also cover the latter? I emailed 10c support about this and will let everyone know what they say. In the meantime, sea or santos, do you have any guidance to offer on this? TIA!

    Thanks! This is very helpful!
    Sorry but it makes zero sense that choosing both of those helps you get in the building more than just choosing the ga/reserved option. 

    The only way selecting both makes the odds better for you is if it somehow puts you in the reserved draw twice which would be ridiculous. 


    It's possible that's it? If they draw the GA first then whomever is left over from GA/Res pool gets combined with Res Only for the reserved draw. If you whiff on GA you have two ping pong balls for reserved.
    That’s the question. Do the GA loser get thrown in the mix with the reserved, or do they claw and fight for the scraps left over after the Res only folks are picked. Past tours have been more like the latter, when you picked GA first choice, reserved second. 
    That's interesting - definitely another way to do it. But given what we can control it's another plus for "check both boxes."

    That is it, actually.

    They said in announcement that GA will be drawn first and then reserved will be drawn afterwards.

    That is, unless, checking the “Reserved” box in addition to the “GA or Reserved” box has the inadvertent effect of disqualifying your GA entry. I certainly hope that’s not the case, but who knows how the ticketing system will view a request checking both boxes.

    Uhmm I tend to think they are drawing for both options at the same time! Otherwise the reserved odds of getting tickets gets tougher no? Why should folks who chose reserved as their 1st option have to wait for GA to be done and have all the people who didn’t get GA fill up the Reserved pool the odds would have to go down of actually getting a ticket? I’m just not sure about this process

    Alright everybody here’s the definitive answer in bold

    TEN CLUB TICKET OPTIONS

    In order to increase your chance of getting tickets, please select all of the seat preferences you would be willing to accept.  

    GA Pit or Reserved - Standing or Seating:
    GA Pit tickets are standing room only and are extremely limited. To improve your overall chances of getting any tickets to the show, we are no longer offering a GA only ticket option. Members wanting GA tickets can select “GA or Reserved” and the GA tickets will be assigned at random. If not selected for GA, members will then be entered for Reserved. GA ticket holders will receive early entry at a predetermined GA only door. 

    My addition to my post below

    So if you’re not willing or able to possibly stand, limit your chances by selecting Reserved Only, as GA will be selected first.

    Can only go to Chicago on 9/7 or Indy (Noblesville)? Seen them in both venues before, so that's not a factor. Really struggling with the choice. Any thoughts?
    Do both!
    I want to. Like, really really want to. But marriage and kids kills the multi-day PJ road trips I took as a youngin'  
    In hindsight I was pretty lucky to have my single days coincide with $40 tickets and 50 city tours

    If good with lawn, then yes.

    if wouldn’t be good with lawn, then just select the two (GA/Reserved and Reserved).

    have been to Noblesville and would recommend lawn, especially since doubtful that there will be many pavilion tickets for Verified Fan (may end up in same spot with lawn either way)

    That’s def how it works though. Types of seating are no longer prioritized just shows themselves.  

    Plenty of people that put GA and reserved as their choice won reserved over those that only put reserved.

    In the end though, I’m thinking selecting just “GA or Reserved” or both “GA or Reserved” and “Reserved” will have the same effect (at least I hope).

    Hey all, I'm looking at travelling over from NZ and have been following this thread with much interest and excitment!

    I've read through things but have a question I'm hoping you guys can clarify, from what I can tell jumping on the lottery site there is no ranking/prioirtising of shows if you're putting in for multiple shows, is this correct and does that mean essentially equal odds of getting tickets to all shows you put in for?

    Long way to come so hoping to max my chances :-) Cheers!

    This is the question I asked at tickets@pearljam.com: Hello,

    For GA/ Reserved, if I strike out on GA and get Reserved would it put me further back with my membership number than if I just chose Reserved? Thanks for all you do! 

    This the response I got:

    No, reserved tickets are all in one big pot based on seniority. We encourage you to select both options as it will increase your chances of getting in the building. Good luck!

    Thank you,

    I cancelled my Reserved request and did as they said. I put in for St. Paul, night 2. Hope this helps

    Except that you could win GA if you select GA/Reserved and can’t if you only select Reserved.

    otherwise yes

    What's the vibe on these being the only shows of the year?
    I’d be very surprised if there were any more this year. Seems like this is an “off” year, with these shows in to keep their muscle memory intact and keep food on the table for the crew. Next year we probably get a record and something closer to 2022, is my guess.

    There is no just GA Pit option so if you want GA Pit, you select GA Pit or Reserved,

    If you only want Reserved, select only Reserved.

    If you want to be double sure and are good with GA and/or Reserved, select both  =)
    It’s the last part of this that confuses me. I’m looking to maximize my chances of getting in the building and would be happy with either GA or Reserved. So I’m assuming I should just choose the former option (“GA or Reserved”). My understanding from the 10c instructions is that if you select that option and you’re aren’t selected for GA, you are then automatically entered into the lottery for Reserved. What confuses me is that if I select “GA or Reserved,” the site still also lets me choose the latter option (“Reserved”). To further complicate matters, the site says, “Select all options below for Best Available. Selecting multiple seat preferences will increase your chances of getting tickets.” So does that mean to maximize my chances, I need to select both “GA or Reserved” and also “Reserved,” or is just selecting the former sufficient because it appears to also cover the latter? I emailed 10c support about this and will let everyone know what they say. In the meantime, sea or santos, do you have any guidance to offer on this? TIA!

    Response I got:

    We encourage you to select both options as it will increase your chances of getting in the building. Good luck!

    Thank you,

    Thanks! This is very helpful!
    Sorry but it makes zero sense that choosing both of those helps you get in the building more than just choosing the ga/reserved option. 

    The only way selecting both makes the odds better for you is if it somehow puts you in the reserved draw twice which would be ridiculous. 


    It's possible that's it? If they draw the GA first then whomever is left over from GA/Res pool gets combined with Res Only for the reserved draw. If you whiff on GA you have two ping pong balls for reserved.
    That’s the question. Do the GA loser get thrown in the mix with the reserved, or do they claw and fight for the scraps left over after the Res only folks are picked. Past tours have been more like the latter, when you picked GA first choice, reserved second. 
    if that's the case then what's the point? If you pick GA first and don't get it you should go to the back of the bus. So why even change it?

    For past shows, does anybody know if it was the whole arena like it’s showing on the chart in the Ten Club requests?

    Hopefully, there’s some sort of consideration to seating if someone is putting in for 5-9 shows vs someone putting in for 1-3 vs seniority only no matter how many shows requested and fulfilled.

    Less of a factor previously but if truly expanding to most if not all of the venue, then maybe a challenge.

    could also just be to indicate that you could be seated anywhere stage facing, but not reflective of the actual majority of the pool.

    Here's how it works:

    If you don't want GA, put in for reserved.
    If you want GA, put in for GA/reserved, but keep in mind you could get reserved.


    Here's what I'm thinking:
    If you put in for both, you could get both, but it seems you're probably going to get seats since you requested seats.

    Can’t make any of these dates work. Hope there’s a second “leg”.

    Leg 1 was last year west coast.
    Leg 2 was Europe.
    Leg 3 was 2022 post-Europe.
    Leg 4 is 2023.
