Pardon me again for my lack of experience in the Ten Club. I have been a fan since the release of "Ten" back in 92, but I entered the fan club like a month ago. How does that lottery drawing work? is there going to be pre sale option for every show? Is that like a contest or every menber can buy presale tickets? I looked to the Ticket policy section but I still dont get to understand some points.

You'll see details when they announce it but historically the broad strokes are:

- Enter for as many shows as you want
- Prioritize them
- Up to 2 tickets per show
- If you get drawn for seats, they are assigned by seniority (If you just joined Ten Club don't expect great seats)

Slightly different for Euro shows, I think. Seniority doesn't really matter because its usually just lottery for GA early entry.
Unless they adopt the US approach this time.

Considering they can’t even have Canada and the USA on the same lotto I don’t think much is going to change with your odds unless leg 1 and leg 2 USA are split. 

This is probably due to the fact there may be different Ticketmaster entities. One Canada. One USA. While it’s all Ticketmaster, they may need to split the business between countries. That’s my best guess. I don’t think it’s anything to do with a Pearl Jam restriction. 

If they do full tour at once, just do smaller batches of shows when drawing lottery results. I think that’s where issues arose last year. Trying to get big chunks of info out.

There's seats for euro shows as well but you are correct in that it's mostly GA

Euro shows have always been 2 tickets as well no option previously for 1

Since you just joined, you'll probably get GA.

I wish they would give us the option of 1 ticket.

10c seats in Europe are worse than general sale anyway.

Thats correct. I am just saying I do not think all 4 legs will be in the same lotto.

That's true. My Zurich seats were OK, but the weeks leading up to the show, there loads of great seats very close to the stage available

Assuming they'll have the F2F option again for tickets, there's always an opportunity to upgrade. Just gotta stay persistent.

Forgive me because I don't fly much but do all flights go up after new year or are we talking about International flights

All flights always go up and the good ones come back down.

Thanks for the heads up, I assumed they'd have a block reserved closest to the stage.

Also, you will need to keep in mind that you will be charged for every show you get picked for - not just your first choice. So make sure you are prepared to pay for multiple shows if you put in for them and are picked for them.

In my experience, the best time to buy for domestic is typically about 2-3 months out. I find that the prices usually drop somewhat during that period. I don’t fly much internationally though, so I don’t have any insight into that. 

Thanks ! I don't need international so the domestic info is great.

Smart-ass are we? Haha

As someone who's had to fly to more shows than drive, I recommend booking flights 6-8 weeks out and usually the best rates to book are on Mondays or Tuesdays.
