    but what stops him from rejoining? tc tickets are better than those open to the public. so he'll not have as good of seats to scalp, but they will still be better than normal ticketmaster tickets, and the amount of tickets available to us will still be the same. so now instead of a dude with 13 years stealing tickets to gain profit, he will have 1 year stealing tickets and selling for profit.

    either way some of us wont get tickets and it wont matter to us if the dude is in the club for 20 years, 10, or 2 weeks.

    why does it matter to you what some guy does with his tix?
    Yeah be pissed, ok. Did you call the police too? Its probably illegal to resell them for that price in Mass. Why just tell the 10C?

    Sorry, I know the rules, they were broken. It happens all the time.

    But I dont agree that people should go running to the 10c and deliberately getting someones personal informtion for the sole purpose of getting their membership revoked.

    Send the 10C an email and be done with it. No need for starting threads or public flogging.

    bingo!

    Yea, but he won't be able to charge as much for 400,XXX+ tickets than his previous ones. Atleast not for the PJ shows, apparently seniority isn't applied to the EV shows. And who knows, maybe he'll do us a favor and won't rejoin and we would get more tickets. If we get lucky.

    Do these same rules apply to posters too, or is it just tickets???
    Because there are plenty of 10C purchased posters floating around here for cost or trade well above their original purchase price.

    Just wondering....
    theres very rarely a way to tell if the posters being flipped were originally bought through 10C... only 10C posters stipulate that theyre not for resale... so unless the seller comes out and says that (AKA is a dumbass like mark) they arent really blatantly breaking any rules... just taking advantage of the market... though i dont condone that either... bad for the fans

    thats my take on posters vs. tickets

    Does anybody else think this guy was only in the 10C to scalp? I'm guessing he doesn't even listen to PJ and waits for these opportunities to take advantage of PJ's loyal fan base. He jumped on the train a long time ago and has gotten a lot of money in the last 13 years. Do we have a choice whether to spend that much for tickets? Absolutely. But I think that's why he was in the 10C in the first place- to use that loyalty and make a few (hundred) bucks whenever these opportunities for scalping come up. I doubt it's because he actually respects and likes the band. Just my opinion.

    If I got shut out of the TC tix and purchased some on Craigs List for $600...should I be kicked out of the club???
    this is a part of the problem... do 10Clubbers really have that much of a flexible income that they welcome scalpers as an additional outlet for overpriced tickets rather than seeing that theyre the reason face value tickets are so hard to get in the first place?? QUIT DEFENDING THIS PRACTICE!

    I don't think anyone condones the activities and business practices of a scalper.

    But, I personally find Red Lukin's bravado concerning his actions equally as distasteful.

    just mai 2 centz
    I wish a guy like Eddie, would like me.

    I know I don't. Scalping is not ok. :)

    We'd like to focus on the positive. There's a show tomorrow night...I'm sooo jealous of those who will be there. Have a great time and we can't wait to hear about it in Given To Fly (live). Be there or be square! haha
