    After sifting through 300 new comments of about 600 I’m still not entirely sure about the picking seating. It says in the disclaimer to pick all options for best available. I don’t want to win the level 2 or P2 seating. So do I pick GA and P1 seating and then P1 again?
    im sure it’s been addressed on here but I think I’ve got it understood that I can’t win more than 2 anyways so whats the harm in putting option 1 & 2 in?
    If you don't want p2, then don't choose it.

     Pick as many options as possible for best chance of getting selected. There's no harm in putting in multiple options. If you get selected, you'll get the best available option that you picked.  Could be GA,  but if those are all gone,  then P1. If you only pick p1 option, then you can only get p1, even though GA may be available when your name is drawn.

    Anyone know how to register for the 10C presale? Assuming I registered for general TM presale as there was no mention of the club whatsoever on the site or confirmation email
    Same here.  Registered for Dublin and didn't get anything that would indicate a 10C exclusive.  I actually logged out of 10C, went to the news about the tour, clicked the link in the news and was brought to the same registration area without any 10C credentials or anything.
    There is a link that takes you to the General Sale Registration. You log in to Ticketmaster, verify your name, email, and phone, then pick shows via a drop-down.

    The 10Club sale link should look like this: Ireland: https://tenclub-ie.request.ticketmaster.ie

    You should be asked to log in to the Ten Club and Ticketmaster, select seat locations and number of tickets and told the price for your request. If you saw all of that, you entered the lottery. Whether your entry was accepted or not, I can't say, but the lottery looks like buying tickets. The General Sale registration looks like signing up for a mailing list.

    If I sign up for two tickets to Dublin but one of us decides not to go, can we sell the tickets? We are not from Ireland, thats why I am asking.

    I can't move the tickets amount from 0 on the Barcelona page.  Works fine on the Ireland/Germany/UK pages.

    Any ideas?
    I'm having the same issue 
  • Out this tour. Good luck everyone. My two cents, it’s tough what they’ve done. You put in hoping for GA but could end up in the last row of the venue. TM essentially being able to sell their nosebleeds to the fans. Doesn’t seem right.

    After sleeping a night to think about the ticket prices for a show, I'm not willing to pay 175€ as a Ten Club member. Like many others, I've been a fan my whole life. I traveled all across Europe to see the shows. I stood in line for hours to buy shirts and posters and to get a place in front of the stage. The fact that you now want 175€ from the most loyal fans in the world is a slap in the face. This has nothing to do with the values that you always tell your fans like a mantra. This is really a big disappointment.


    How many hours do I need to sleep on concrete to get a 50% discount?

    USA 
    Ireland 
    and UK

    You have to check out all 3 carts separately right?  They don’t all lump into one cart

    @nicknyr15 I put in for lowers only at msg.  
    I did too at first with the old system in mind. I went back and changed it and selected all 3 options. I’m not sure if that’s the right or wrong thing to do. Some of those seats in the uppers are fucking awful and I’d rather pay scalpers to sit in a better seat. What a shitshow honestly. I don’t care about the ticket price increase, but that map of 10c tickets for msg is embarrassing. It’s the most sought after ticket and they know it and that’s the amount of 10c tickets? Maybe I’m missing something? Or being irrational?

    Ranger ;) and Knicks fans are in those 100 level club seats. As you know, the majority of 100 level seats not behind the baskets are now club seats, and NBA fans get event privileges.

    Yes. Your UK would be in one checkout, Ireland in another, and all your US in another. They each have their own separate links.

    I paid $263 for a Neil Young ticket yesterday. PJ is not out of line with what their peers are charging. 
    You got ripped off. 

    Seriously? Neil is 78. He is a legend. In a few years he will not be touring ever again. How much is something worth when you know it will never ever again be available to purchase in the future? I get it’s serious $ but please…

    Petty just came on the radio. How much would a Petty fan pay now to be in the same room as him to hear him sing? A few million dollars for a Time Machine maybe?

    My friend is a Spurs season holder and he said they just get next ticket priority after Ten Club, no discount or anything.

    He also said:
    I hear from my ITK that it's been an arduous undertaking

    I think a lot of Americans (of which I am) don't realize full that the average wage in UK and much of Europe is oftentimes a lot lower than the USA. The average wage in Britain is around $38,000 give or take. It's a bit higher in Ireland. In the U.S. it's in the mid $50,000. So we're talking around $15,000 difference a year. 


    And folks overseas don’t realize americans pay $25,000 per year on healthcare, which is tied to our employment which is “at will”  and employers wouldn’t think twice firing someone and 93% of workers here are non union with zero rights, and it costs $300,000 to send our kids to university. We have terrible public transit, so we need to drive and cars are outrageously expensive. 

    I get this tour is expensive but there is only one Pearl Jam. Three of the boys will be over 60 by the end of the year, who knows how many years we have left to enjoy them live.

    So the only location that won't have F2F is NYC? I guess maybe Chicago also? I'm just thinking if I change my mind and want to go to Boston I can probably get decent seats with F2F.
    NYC and Chicago will have F2F.  Just don't count on many if any seats popping up for NYC. 

    MSG will be tough through 10C and retail channels. That said 48hrs before the last shows tickets were not hard to find. 

    Fans say this but day of show there were zero tickets on Ticketmaster, and stub hub was at $500. Unless you had Tempos cell, you were SOL. Most of us in NY have never ever seen those magic blue dots for available seats on Ticketmaster. Red ones yes, but they’re usually close to $1000.

    Anyone remember when you had an opportunity to get two tickets. Period? None of this being able to get tickets for 23402304983 shows. Ever since they started doing that it's been an absolute shit show. I don't know why I'm even a 10C member anymore. It's not like:

    - I even get tix now cause of the lottery (been shut out for years)
    - I'll pay $175/tix nowadays

    I wish everyone good luck.
    Absolutely this. I’ve been a 10 club member for 21 years. Every single 10 Club ticket sale has been marred by problems. Then the experience of picking up the tickets is usually a shambles. There is never enough merchandise. Yes, we get let in early but that is it. 

    Being a member of 10 club has been seriously devalued over the years to the point where I am wondering why I bother. 

    So I’ve registered as a verified fan to see if the tickets will be any cheaper.

    i don’t think they realise how difficult it will be to fill the Spurs stadium when Green Day are playing Wembley on the same day - and also it being Glastonbury weekend.


    i basically consider my membership a nostalgic donation. there's really not much benefit anymore. maybe we're lucky to get some good seats behind the rich kids, yay.

    well, glad those frantically-hitting-the-F5-button-to get-tickets days are over, though.

    Just had another email reminding me to buy 10C tickets. Early signs of poor sales ?

    Is it really a hassle?  We have to fill out an electronic form and hit submit.  People may not like the new rules but it’s not a hassle. Much less work than standing in line at a Ticketmaster outlet or repeatedly redialing to get through on the phone.  And probably even less work than filling out an index card, finding a stamp and walking to a mailbox like we used to have to do for fan club tickets.

    i don't know how to feel about all of this. i was so excited about the announcement - finally good news during those weird times - now i'm just dissapointed. i can afford it, yet it doesn't feel fair and i did hold them to a higher standard.

    of course capitalism is a bitch, the whole industry is complex and it's easy to whine "it's too expensive" without knowing the details and calculations. infaltion and covid was tough (although the concert industry got a lot of compensation here), yada yada. the circumstances haven't just been tough for artists, but for many of us non-millionaires, too.

    yes, some other acts charge even more, but how's that a good excuse? on the other hand arctic monkeys last year were 60e and the prices for smaller shows generally haven't changed drastically. do they pay their employees much less? do they sleep in worse hotels and drink worse champagne? in fact, i don't understand why older artists often charge so much more, bono, neil young and mick jagger don't have to worry about their retirement, do they?

    maybe there are some good arguments, but i don't see them and therefore feeling quite ripped off.

    the only good reason for those doubled ticket prices i can think of is they don't want us to travel so much.

    I get this tour is expensive but there is only one Pearl Jam. Three of the boys will be over 60 by the end of the year, who knows how many years we have left to enjoy them live.
    Glad I saw most of my PJ shows when it wasn’t like it is today I’m perfectly fine if I don’t see them again! At some point you have to tell yourself it it worth it? To me it’s not worth the hassle to attend a concert anymore 

    I felt the same way last time around and then they go and put on a show like Camden. I definitely do not feel any sense of urgency though.

    I think a lot of Americans (of which I am) don't realize full that the average wage in UK and much of Europe is oftentimes a lot lower than the USA. The average wage in Britain is around $38,000 give or take. It's a bit higher in Ireland. In the U.S. it's in the mid $50,000. So we're talking around $15,000 difference a year.

    Is it really a hassle?  We have to fill out an electronic form and hit submit.  People may not like the new rules but it’s not a hassle. Much less work than standing in line at a Ticketmaster outlet or repeatedly redialing to get through on the phone.  And probably even less work than filling out an index card, finding a stamp and walking to a mailbox like we used to have to do for fan club tickets.  
    To me I’d rather just stick to up & coming bands when I can just get a ticket way easier! PJ is a big band so I get the demand but I get more satisfaction by going to smaller venues and seeing bands that haven’t or won’t get huge yet saw QOTSA tickets no problem smaller venue, just saw Band of Horses tiny venue for $50 and walked out completely satisfied. Like I said I saw this band when it was in its beginning and it felt great to me it doesn’t feel the same anymore! But it’s just me I don’t expect anyone else to feel like I do. Enjoy the shows I’m not sure I’ll be trying for any of the dates 
    jesus greets me looks just like me ....

    OK did anyone really think ticket prices were gonna be less than say 160? I mean come on they were about right where I would’ve said between 150 and 200 no surprise there. 

    As far as seats couple things for some of the tougher shows say Madison Square Garden and Philly maybe  Vegas if you got a really shitty fan club number, you might not get picked for reserved seating they might run out of tickets toin priority 1. Obviously they’re doing the upper reserve fan  club seats this time so that you know you might be up there but I’m guessing anyone with a number lower than say 350 ain’t getting priority one reserve seating that coupled with all of the prime seats reserved for platinum, you might have to go for priority t2 upper deck fan club tickets not a great dilemma to have. That’s the way it is.
