    Probably because they are sick of e-mails and calls when people go to site to see if tickets are available and they aren't even listed. A vast majority of fans/10c members don't normally post or visit this site.

    SHOW COUNT: (164) 1990's=3, 2000's=53, 2010/20's=108, US=118, CAN=15, Europe=20 ,New Zealand=4, Australia=5
    Mexico=1, Colombia=1

    All I know is my shorcut in Firefox on the top of my browser for the message pit still says "Database Error" And that was from the VIC pre-sale :eek:

    I keep it there as a memory of a horrible day.

    Ya...I know its old hat...just wish they would stop it!

    I do get the point though about people hearing about a 10C sale perhaps after the fact and keeping them there avoids unecessary emails/calls.

    It's like if you were running into a burning building to save a child and someone threw a branch in front of you and you fell and sprained an ankle and couldnt get into the building and the child didnt make it out...Im not sure where I was going with that.

    They are an ever-present reminder of my failure. 10C keeps them up to torture me.
    I smile, but who am I kidding...

    True, but the point is when the Newark sale went on, the other shows were clearly done and sold out. They should have been tempoarily taken down or Newark placed at the top so you could refresh faster.

    Just would have made it a little easier.

    Thanks Patrick! The same to you...

    I'm trying Firefox for the first time, hopefully it doesn't backfire! Trying to stay positive! :)

    You gotta get in the zone and focus, don't stop when you see temp. out of stock, I saw both of these for MSG1 and EV NYC2 and it took me another 30-45 min or so, but it worked

    Good Luck

    Thanks! I've done a little "practicing"...for a good 30 minutes the other day with no buy icon, but hoping today goes differently. Maybe this new browser will help me out! Some swear by it...maybe others swear at it! :)

    If by chance you see temp out of stock, when you click to refresh the ticket icon w/ firefox, start dragging the mouse towards the buy icon. This way you will click it fast and will most likely not get a temp out of stock on the next page

    Think 1 move ahead

    QFT!!!!

    Better luck to all who are trying for Eddie's solo gigs. And if by some horrid chance you get shut out and decide to post a bitch about it - please know even tho you will be told to stfu and quit QQ - it won't be from me. I still feel a pang of pain over the Vic show.

    peace
    I wish a guy like Eddie, would like me.
