Please don't hate me (at least not for this), but:
I went 10-for-10. It may have helped that I was going for single tickets for eight of the ten shows.
VAN N1, P1 VAN N2, P1 POR, P1 SAC, GA LV N1, GA LV N2, GA LA N1, GA (2 tix) LA N2, GA (2 tix) SEA N1, P1 SEA N2, P1
(The LA GA tix will be going up on F2F, as my local fan-club buddy also got GA tix for both nights.)
Nothing but love, here ❤️
My credit card is going to be punch-drunk because, on top of this, tomorrow I need to bring my car in for some work with an $1,800 estimate.
Crap! Hate car repairs. My Australian/NZ is all paid except food/themepark/zoo/ferry tix/surf lesson. Even had a cc credit for all the ticket I put in for and most gratefully got. You got this!
I'm lucky. I haven't had this kind of repair expense on my car since 2015. My car turns 20 years old on March 4, and it's still in great shape, this issue notwithstanding. (One of the reasons I can afford all these shows is because I drive a 20-year-old car.)
I don't splurge for many things, but Pearl Jam is one of them. I will more than make up for these expenses by all the other weeks and months when I do nothing and go nowhere. And I will also do this on the cheap.
I've only ever once tried to maintain a car with that type of an expense and after I did the stupid thing died so I threw in the towel cut my losses and leased my first new car last week. Let's meet up in Van. You are single and dating, right?
Are all the BS Tickemaster charges and fees included in the price of the tickets, or do those get added on? Trying to understand the pending charge on my card, but the numbers don't add up.
I think some had added taxes? People were seeing some additional $ on their charges due to that. Does it give a name of a vendor?
My Wrigley pairs were listed at $350 ea. and I have a pending charge for $460. That's a lot of taxes! hahaha
Maybe those lavender lotions you bought over the weekend are finally showing up on your card charges.
Damnit! That's probably it! Always forget about those damn lotions! lol
Nothing yet, if I strike out on philly, I think I'll bail on philly altogether and will focus my efforts on adding msg 2 to the baltimore and msg1 I have. Philly has usually had my favorite shows of every tour though...
Can anyone remind me where P2 is? Shitsville if I recall
There's not a bad seat in the house in MSG - just saw Tool there in the 200s and it was outstanding. Congrats on the score!
One of the Tool shows I was about six rows up in 200s a section from stage, it was good. Once you get up towards rows 15+ the chase bridges can block views if crowd is standing. Also, very steep for a standing show.
Got MSG Night 2 - P2. If I can't have GA I think I would rather be higher up on the side than all the way in the back - so I am good with P2. And very happy to be in the building for my home town show.
That depends on how long you've been in the 10c. If you are a newer member, I'd expect seats upstairs in the 300 level.
I don't think they are going by seniority for this sale. My Ten Club number is around 10000, been in the Ten Club since '93 and I didn't get GAs for LA. When seniority is accounted for, I'm usually one of the first to get chosen. Not complaining, I've seen my share of fantastic shows.... just inputting some info.
So your saying that tickets are based on seniority. @mcgruff10 were you aware of this?
@D-Rod Seniority has never been a factor in getting tickets.
Got confirmation MSG Weds P1 reserved! My daughter turns 27 tomorrow this is her birthday present got to admit I didn’t have any confidence that I would score so I’m super grateful to be sharing this with her! Thanks 10C
Holy shit. Took a chance on NYC/MSG, b/c have never really travelled out of the Midwest to see PJ and have never seen a show at MSG. So many stories of the epic shows there, watching the DVD, just wanting to be a part of it. Well, JUST SCORED 1 N2, PIT/GA!
It will be my 27th show (b/c Indy is fucking happening this time!) and my 2nd GA after St Louis 2022. I am sure it will be much harder to get rail than it was in St Louis, but just floating right now. Off to make flight/accommodation plans. Good luck to all.

I'll never understand how this all works, but this time it was in my favor. Cannot wait.
also might be interested in trading my extra ticket night 1 for a night 2 ticket.
