Hi all, 2 x rear standing for London purchased at £159.13 each when they went on sale. Registered interest via Tm and queued up like a good punter. Now I can't go and can't sell the tickets it seems, coz TM kep B**gering about with the prices. Be honest with me - what are my chances of losing £320 I don't have? cheers

You might get 200 back if you lower the price now

ticket sales are not great in Europe. But they are far from "let's cancel the tour and get negative PR and anger from our most loyale fans"-bad.

The bill is not great. But it is far from "let's cancel a concert just a day or two before and get anger from our most loyale fans"-bad.

Actually you will have to lower them beyond 100 a piece. I bought my Tickets yesterday as resale tix for 86GBP a Ticket (including fees) and those were Front Standing. And I don't see the prices go up again. Try something around that price and write the rest off.

Ten Club membership is only $35 who cares.  People need to reset their expectations.  

If I win TC lotto once every six years, that’s $210 added to a ticket cost. 

If that’s nothing to you, please Venmo it to  me.

No, they use miles in the UK

It is shocking all the good seats available for Manchester. Something seriously wrong. It’s not good enough. Thankfully we skipped Manchester. Would be so sickened to see all these good seats available. My friends are going and could only get seats up the back in Section 302.

I can see for miles and miles 
Not the same in kilometres

I wont be cancelling my tenclub membership. Yes the tickets were expensive but its invaluable for me to get early access to them and not have to deal with TM on a general sale. 

I also like this forum and the little exclusives that are available from the club. Its a pretty small sum of money all considered.

Hi, did you get London front standing for that price from TM? I’ve been looking and there only appears to be one in the front section in the resale tickets for £155 in think?

The metric system has miles too. So nothing to worry about.

Looking at the lower tier in Manchester makes me sick. New rows are added every day. So much for the fact that Manchester might be the only European concert to be sold out. Not even that will work. Around 1000 tickets are now available at the lower tier. As if by magic.

Just got off the phone with pearl jam management. They will implement a metric system only policy in the UK venues, if it helps drive ticket sales.

You really went the extra mile!

They pulled this shit in Vancouver, too. A month out they dropped 3-400 lower bowl for night 1 and 800-1000 for night 2. But they all ended up selling by showtimes🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Oh, man, don't get me started. When I went to Vancouver for the shows, I picked up my rental car and was driving it at what felt like a moderate rate of speed when I glanced at the speedometer and was shocked to see that I was somehow doing 90. Then, waiting for the SeaBus after the show, I looked at a display in the terminal and saw that the temperature outside was 9 degrees. I thought, "Damn, I should have packed a coat." Finally, refilling my tank before returning the car, I was presented with gas-- excuse me, petrol-- by the liter-- I mean litre-- priced in Canadian dollars-- or is it dollras? I still have no idea whether I got a good deal or not and, unfortunately, there's simply no way to know.

What a messed-up system. It must be tough for Canadians to walk around all day constantly having to multiply things by .62 or 1.8 to know the real distances and temperatures.

Also, not about weights and measures, the radio station I settled on went by Zed 95.3. I still don't know who this Zed person is...

Pretty much sums it up. Just received this email for Manchester

They could've at least kept the 10C ticket prices reasonable...
