How can this be defended?
Why are so many Fans defending what has happened today? This is a big time band who makes millions touring. They have a fan club so fans have a voice. Unfortunately now most fans are at the mercy of ticket rapping brokers.
I am sorry but I can no longer defend The Ten Club. I was one of the lucky fans to get Philly and New York...I should walk up to the window at show time and then rip them in spite.
And please Do not compare them to what other bands do..I frankly dont care

They sell what they have and when its sold out it's sold out. Simple fact.
its not 2000 or 1998, TM has a limit on what fanclubs can sell and with a market like NYC for the MSG this is no surprise.
I read your post and I am not even sure what the problem is? There is a limited number of seats and a very high demand, and I don't really see any way to get around that unless Pearl Jam tours non-stop and plays every city in the world not stopping until every fan has seen them and is happy. Otherwise some people are going to get left out. It sucks but that's life.
What exactly is your fucking problem, man?
Seriously?
A. You fucking got tickets
B. ANY one who has been around here for ANY length of time should have known that there WOULD NOT BE ENOUGH SUPPLY TO MEET DEMAND and they should have been aware of the nature of the 10C server
C. ITS NOT THE 10Clubs fault ... BLAME TICKETMASTER - the ones who put a cap on fanlcub allotments
D. Tickets through 10C are a PRIVELAGE, not a RIGHT
E. So what exactly is your fucking problem?
I don't think anyone is defending the 10c for their server issues, but the fundamental issue at play here is Demand is greater than Supply. NOTHING would have stopped SOME people from not getting tickets.
SO WHAT DID YOU WANT THEM TO DO?
If I opened it now would you not understand?

what exactly are you upset at the tenclub FOR? not having enough tix? also, what do you mean by "I was one of the lucky fans to get Philly and New York"?
Yeah and it looked like there were more fans than tickets. Tough break. Sorry.
Anyway, have a great time to those lucky people who got tix. I'm envious, but happy for those fans who managed to get some.

I meant people closer to the west coast where their computer is.
and what are the other people who get their tix from TM? are they not fans? just because they don;t belong to 10c doesn't mean they are any less worthy of seeing a band.

I'm curious too, as some people got them for both nights with such ease, and yet others couldn't get any nights at all.

Same shit that always happens with high demand items on 10c servers.
The servers freaked out, dumped items out of peoples carts when they went to buy. Froze up and timed out during processing, gave people the "buy" and then "temporarily out of stock" (because like 1 pair went back in, and by the time they clicked buy, they were gone) ... and so fort.
SAME SHIT, DIFFERENT CRY BABIES.
Shit gets old.
Wish we could have the "Message Pit Abortion" right about now.
:rolleyes:
If I opened it now would you not understand?
Yeah. I wish I'd had some wine.
I'm just whining instead.
Bingo. Thousands tried, some succeeded. Every needs to stop acting like spoiled brats. I got shut out of night 1. I'll get them through TM. It happens. We are not entitled to anything.

Now...are these brokers freestyling or is it more of a structured hip hop type thing?

What exactly is the problem?
Didn't everyone know that was going to happen?
Aren't there tons of threads/posts about people wanting to trade/sell/buy extra tickets?
I was only able to get night 2, but I'm sure I'll be at night 1.
In 2003 I purchased pj and foo fighter tix for side lower level from what appeared to be a crackhead in the shell of the revolving doors at duane reade on the corner of 34th St, paid $120 for pj and $85 for foo and I was HAPPY!!!
**in '06 I sold my extra camden for $25 and a beer.
So again what is the problem?

How do you know their server is on the west coast? I have 2 servers that I use and they are both in Arizona, yet my company is located in Jersey. Just because the fan club is Seattle based doesn't mean that their servers are.

Yes. Ripping tickets out of spite! That'll show 'em! While you're at it, why don't you shit your pants in front of MSG on the nights of the shows. That will teach Pearl Jam a lesson they'll never forget! You need to get laid! The 10 club should start selling Pearl Jam diapers and pacifiers for all the fucking babies that are in their fan base.
Hmm...I guess I really DON'T know. That's an interesting observation. :eek:
I can't believe the whinging that goes on this board! Unfortunately this is what happens when demand out strips supply as in the case with these shows. It's where the industry is at as far as tickets go and every band experiences the same problem with scaplers and ticket brokers. At the end of the day PJ are operating as a business and of course they want to sell out these shows whilst getting the right balance with supplying the demand. It's not there fault ppl have hyped up these shows and so everyone wants tickets for them and some people will unfortunately always take advantage of these situations.
