    CHECK IT OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! From Tim Himself in response to the petition to get rid of 10 C tickets...... "Yet Unscheduled Southern SHOWS!!!

    That being said, Kerensa informed me of your longstanding membership with the club, and that did factor in to our thought process. It really struck us that a long time member could feel such dissatisfaction with the distribution system, and would even move to petition for it's demise.

    I don't want to say too much right now because we are still discussing this internally, and the authority to change the ticket system does ultimately rest out of the hands of the 10c staff. We are going to forward this petition to the band for review and, pending their decision, it is possible that as an initial trial, we would get rid of ticket distribution for the as-of-***_________yet unscheduled southern shows___________*** and see what the overall fanbase reaction is.

    Sort of a good news/ bad news situation for us southerners, though. They come down here, and we're the trial run for no 10c tickets.

    Still, they'd be coming down.
    Statistically speaking, you're more likely to be pitied by Mr. T than you are to have feet.

    Yep, and just think, YOU might have a chance to sit in the front instead of knowing you WON'T BE in the front!!!

    I think it's AWESOME in all respects....Just my humble opinion.....

    True. I should have specified, sucks for those who have decent 10c numbers (mine's 197XXX, not great, but far from bad).

    I did manage to score a good seat for the VFC show in Kissimmee, with just the pre-sale where 10c #s weren't involved.

    I could go either way on it. I just want some shows. :)

    Call me gullible, naive, whatever you like. Sorry if I got anyone's hopes up (other than my own). I don't expect fellow jammers to be playing cruel jokes on other jammers. People like that are the subject(s) of some of the songs Ed and the guys write. Guess I should feel sorry for him, but I don't.

    And you might not get tickets at all due to scalpers and people that work inside and provide tickets to brokers.

    The Ticket system is in place so the true fans can get tickets to the shows before ticket scalpers and brokers get them. I joined when I had to pay $200 for a sold out show that I waited in line to get tickets to.

    i don't expect it either...at least i used to not expect it...but now it seems like this place is nothing more than a playground for out of school 8th graders...most of whom probably live in the northeast and got to go to 10 shows this year and who have no compassion whatsoever for those of us who feel left out....

    Disregarding all the nonsense, lets keep bumping the thread for it purpose. Let them know how much we love the band and want some shows down here sometime in the immediate future. Im sure its safe to say that they already know this, but true dedication involves going above and beyond. If that means making this thread the size of the entitre southern US, then so be it. Keep posting people.

    EDIT: Post # 2222............Maybe next week I can snag Post # 3333

    Yep, you're right. Just no figuring what people won't do. And being somewhat of an idealist, I'll get suckered in every time. It's worth the humiliation if it helps persuade 10C to give us some news about the band playing the South!! :)

    and a side note:

    as much as I want the southern shows to happen, I am not in favor at all of eliminating the 10club ticket sales. and no, my number is not low, I didn't join until 2003.

    i dont think this is really going to happen, i dont see the purpose of them abandoning a system that seems to have worked so well over the years

    its amazing how Drifting's "joke" has caused so much paranoia and locked threads

    im any case here is a HUGE BUMP for the south

    not getting any pearl jam is like not getting any sex. it's starting to make me irritable! and listening to boots is starting to be equivalent to masturbation: i mean, i get to hear some, but it's just not the same, no matter how much i close my eyes and try to imagine i'm actually there.....and it's nowhere near as satisfying....
