No choice for GA or seated?

I guess I should be grateful I got anything at all, but I only wanted a general admission ticket. I did not want a seat. And I got a seat to the only show I won for. I’ve seen Pearl Jam several times, and every time I’ve had seats, I’ve had a bad experience from jerks next to me. All I wanted was one general admission ticket. I wrongly assumed this would be like previous tours. Why make GA impossible to get for the people who only want those tickets? I have never had this issue with any other band. The band should know this pushed me in a position where I’m going to have to spend $500 from a reseller for a ticket to see them in GA. That’s not cool.

    You're stuck with it for now. You can resell it on the TM site/app in February when the Fan2Fan feature gets turned on.

    If you call TM, or chat, they will do absolutely nothing. 

    Hope this helps!

    Thanks for being kind, at least. I just assumed this tour would be like previous tours. I must’ve glossed over the fact it was different in my excitement to try to apply. :|

    Probably closer to $1000 for a GA, Sloop.  Enjoy your show.

    No worries! And you don't have to shell out $500 for GA. Just keep hunting the TM app & site til day of show. You never know!

    What city, btw?

    Yeah there is no GA only option anymore and even if there was your chances of getting it would have been extremely small.  At least you got tix.  A lot of us got shut out completely.
