Who’s up for a contest? Best PJ lyrics to describe the situation? (With artistic modifications obviously)

”Pledge my grievance to the band. Cause you don’t give lower bowl seats and take them back agains.”

OR

”Spin me round! Roll me over! Fuckin circus!”

OR

”Dedications, naive and true, with no power, nothing to do.

How many people got 100 level seats for Chicago? I can only recall seeing a handful 

I’m 195xxx and got back of lowers behind soundboard so seems like need # below 200xxx to get lowers for Chicago.

I'm 208XXX and I got reassigned to Section 105 Row 18 for Chicago N1. It was my 1st priority. I'm thinking that I must be one of the highest numbers to still get lower bowl...With the exception of the poor bastards that are way lower that got inexpliably stuck in the 300's. I also scored very similar tickets to both Austin shows with my 2nd & 3rd priority.

All of those people with the lower numbers that are so disappointed... Did you get to see some great shows in the past? Better than any of us chopped livers with the "bad" numbers? Oh, the times of "front row tickets!" - I barely scraped by them. You pay how much for that membership? Is it like 30 bucks right now? A year? I understand wanting better tickets, we all want to have the best we can, but some of y'all really come across as a bit entitled. The band probably enjoys seeing newer faces and enthusiasm up front every so often too. Times change. I had the most wonderful experiences with this band, and before the last Baltimore show (the only one I could afford last time around and that was first postponed and then cancelled because of venue issues) I had won some and lost some. And I was always happy to get 10c tix so I did not have to deal with the general sale. Things have gotten so much better than during the PJ20 sale (where I got lucky!). Why not be happy for newer members too? Do you want it all just for yourselves? Because you pay a measly membership fee? I hope everyone who got tickets will enjoy the shows, I know I will, being in the fucking building and meeting with good friends, old and new. (I do feel with the ones that are now seemingly shut out because of CC balance limits.)

N2 seemed to be in a bit more demand than N1, I'm in 105 Row 19 (last row) for N2 with 194xxx.

I have been charged and credited for my first show confirmation.  Now I have  two charges:  reassignment of first show selection and now the 2nd show I received notification today.  my Indy priority #2 is still showing as unfilled.

Same thing happened to me.  I have 2 shows but 4 charges now.  $650 was a huge stretch for me.  I don't want to put a stop to the wrong charge and lose my tickets.  TM has revenge on PJ fans today

Many people did get lawn tickets, but considering what they said about securing the majority of lawn seats I’m surprised everyone who entered the lottery and checked lawn didn’t get them. Makes me think this thing isn’t over yet, but maybe I’m wrong.

“Society, you’re a crazy breed.”

Not meant in a bad way but seeing 2000+ comments on this thread is tough to see. So many voices angry, happy, indifferent, and confused. I understand people’s priority complaints. I understand thier frustration. I am just happy I am in the building for a few shows!

Looks like I have to retract my kudos from earlier. This seems like a nightmare.

As far as I can tell, nobody has received any actual denial emails yet, so we still need to wait for the dust to settle…but it seems like a truly phenomenal proportion of requests are going to end up being honored here for a US tour. Not to minimize peoples’ legitimate gripes - and I think they are legitimate - but it’s ironic that lottery that looks like it’s going to deliver tickets to almost everyone who asked for them is going to end up also being a huge clusterfuck that drains a bunch of goodwill. 

If you have a 5 digit member number and wind up with seats in the 300 section of an arena you have a legitimate gripe

If you won tickets yesterday, but got denied today because of their double charges, there is a legitimate gripe too. 

(Not just me, others had this problem)

Holy crap...I missed that one. I'm sorry...that really sucks.

I'm really hoping 10C can do something for those people and myself, but the response from TM was "Sorry".

Hey buddy. If things don't get sorted I've got a pair in the 300's I can sell you for face. Chicago N1

For sure, I thought getting picked for the lawn was practically a given. 🤷‍♂️

Good for you!

But not making sense when people with numbers in the 1000xxx, 200xxx and 300xxx are up in the 300 Sections.

I'm also in Section 105 row 18.  For Peter Gabriel I have Section 105, Row 19 so there must be a row of seats behind these (or maybe temporary seats)?

Both of those sections are side/behind the stage. Not reserved.

Yes, I do know they are side/behind the stage, but they're not reserved seats there? I know I've sat in a reserved seat in other venues.

100% agree. The entitlement associated with so many of these posts is really gross. It seems like most people got into the band when they were 15 or 16 and still act like teenagers when things don’t go their way. 

It’s a concert - either you got tickets or you didn’t, and when you enter a lottery you don’t get to pick your seat. It’s part of the game and always has been. Getting a ticket to a show has never been a guaranteed part of the club membership, but so many people on here are acting like it’s their birthright to see this band every time they play. Wish you all could just chill. 

Most of the people are aren’t complaining about not winning the lottery. It’s the people like 93xxx who has 300 level seats instead of 100 level when some guy who joined in 2015 has great seats who have a legitimate gripe. Your point is taken, but seniority isn’t being taken into account in some cases 

Not to play Devil's advocate, but I think people have a legitimate gripe. One of the tenants of the 10C was that seating assignment is based upon membership. The lottery is one thing, either you get a ticket or you don't, and membership seniority has nothing to do with that selection. However, correct me if I'm wrong, but historically, once you got selected for the lottery, your seats were ostensibly based upon your seniority in the fan club. It's one of the reasons we all continue to pay the membership fee.  For some reason, this tour, that is obviously not the case, and understandably some people are frustrated by that fact.  I don't think 10C intended that seat assignments to be completely random, but there's obviously been some sort of change or error that has not been adequately explained to 10C members. I think the fault lies directly at the feet of TM, but that's just me. 

Yes they literally lay this out as a benefit of being a member and paying your dues.  How some people think that expecting to get what you pay for is crying is beyond me.  I think they have a serious hero worship complex.

Exactly this. I mean words should have meaning right? We pay our increasing annual membership dues in exchange for a dwindling amount of benefits, one of the few remaining is supposedly seniority-based seating. The tour post by the band detailed how this was supposed to work for this tour (with seniority factored in), we made our purchase decisions, and then they didn't follow through on what we were told would be the process. But I'm not allowed to care?

The sole benefit is having the chance to get tix at face value. Thats it. Thats what you pay for. The singles and t shirts are gone. If you expect more, need to adjust. Its changed and with that your expectations need to change too. 

Where does it state that the benefit of having a membership is a chance at tickets for face value?
Ten Club Membership Benefits:

• Priority Ticketing - Ten Club holds the best tickets in the house for members-only presale opportunities and rewards longtime fans for their dedication with seniority-based seating. Ten Club strives to continually improve upon its ticketing program to ensure that fan club members have access to the most tickets possible per show. 

Clearly states seniority based seating rewards and improving the ticketing program.  I don't see over paying for 300 level tickets anywhere in the benefits.

One of the crazier parts of all of this screw up is the fact that TC tickets in different areas are all the same price. That's kind of wild. Why does a TC fan whatever their number is who gets 300 pay the same as a GA fan. FWIW i think 160 incl fees for GA is fine for this band at this point, but if you're selected for 300 you should pay $60-75 max

I don’t think you’ll find any seat for less than the TC price on the public sale.
They’ve always just done 1 price. To me it seems less like charging more for the nosebleeds, but charging less for the great seats.

This was my same exact thought today, it just doesn’t seem like as many people as expected are reporting getting Indy lawn, which is slightly confusing. Not sure if it is fully over or not I guess.

How long did it take you to write that garbage? I’m not going to waste my time responding to 90% of it, but I will point out the obvious fact that we didn’t make the TC rules…the band did. And the rules they set are that reserved seating is based on seniority. Meaning…and I’ll type this slowly for you…the longer that you’re in TC, the better seats you receive, if you are fortunate enough to be selected in the lottery. Again, THEIR rules. I’ll let other people respond to the rest of your nonsensical post. Cheers!

Yep. $160 for a spot on the floor at any major arena show these days is pretty much unheard of.
