Chicago Shows = 100% Ten Club

edited May 2009 in The Porch
Nobody believed me when I posted this earlier in the week, but it indeed turns out these shows are virtually 100% 10 Club. Almost nothing was available to the general public in the onsales today (actually, nothing at all was available to the general public for the first show other than a handful of poor presale seats). Literally there is no secondary market on these tickets because it is 100% wil call 10C. There may be some poor seats that trickle out to the public here and there, but these are officially 10C shows.

The upside is that these will be amazing sold out crowds, but the downside is that a lot of 10C members will be in the upper reaches of the building. Don't worry though, it's a gift just to be in the building for a PJ show.

    I pulled 200 level row 2 for night 2, but NOTHING for night 1 and that was at 11:02... so that's definitely got to be a very, very high percentage of TC members for those shows.

    I highly doubt its above 50%, but I can't believe its under 50% either.

    Should be some great shows!

    I am looking at this like Pearl Jam's "Zoo TV" tour, that is how hard tickets are to get to these shows. People will be buying a few hundred bucks just to sit in the uppers. Lucky for us to be in the 10 Club! :mrgreen:

    I checked out of curiousity, and Ticketbastard had section 316, row 8 for night 2. Don't know if these were extra ones added later, but since I have tickets I didn't buy them.
  • RazzyLaneRazzyLane Posts: 146
    I'm still able to pull up seats in the 100s for night two and the 300s for night one. There were pleny of 200 level seats available when they went on sale.

    Out of curiousity, what makes you think 10c had more seats than normal (keeping in mind that Toronto sold out in less than 10 minutes)? :)
  • DewieCoxDewieCox Posts: 11,430
    There's still singles for both shows.
    You can still get a pair to night 2.
    Night 1 will be the most legendary show in years.
  • iamicaiamica Chicago Posts: 2,628
    I don't think Chicago night 1 is sold out yet. Yes, it's nearly impossible to find tickets, but in my experience the day a show goes onsale you can never pull up tickets because everyone else is trying to.
    Last summer Ticketmaster dropped tickets to the main floor for Eddie Vedder night 2 the day of the show, and I grabbed them. TM's always doing crap like that. Keep trying!

    I had 2 different sets of 4 come up for N1 at the onsale this morning. I'm sure there are a lot of 10c seats for these shows based on how long the tickets were available through the PJ site, but if you check a place like Stub Hub you'll see N1 has A LOT of tickets that went to the public - presale and public sale.

    I checked SH right before the public sale to see what my options were going to cost if I got hosed and I wondered if anyone who got seats in the presale was actually going to use them! :shock:
    Why go home?

    I dont think that its that no one believed you, I think its because you have no proof that this is the case you are assuming and passing it as fact.

    I do agree with what many have suggested though, that there seems to be more 10C seats this time around compared to last tour.

    why are you so determined to falsely build these shows up? there were plenty of tickets available today, and I am sure scalpers will have plenty as well. these shows arent anything even in the same universe as "10C only" or 100% 10C.

    I will be there both nights, and I am beyond excited, but your threads about these shows are nonsense.

    i got 3 singles for night one. 2 of them happen to be right next to each other! :lol: I tried for 4 together at first. I clicked find tickets and ticketbastards site timed out on me :evil: then tried for 4 again, nothing. so i just tried to grab singles that were near each other in the 200s sections.... got lucky! I can't wait to be in the building it's going to epic!!! :o got 10 club tics for night 2.

    does anyone have an idea of where a 10 club ticket at 169### might be? on the floor? on the side? in the parking lot? at Soldiers field?

    At 11:02 for show 2, I was able to get section 107 row 7. I already got tickets, I just wanted to see what I would have gotten if I didnt get 10c seats.

    20 - 30 rows is to far back for that number BUT I really dont know because there are a lot of people traveling to these shows so it really depends on the numbers people that are going have, of course this is just my opinion backed up by nothing other than my assumption.

    Hope that's the case. Night 2, it looks like I'll have some pretty nice tix for a newish member. Night 1 I'm just happy to be a part of, but anything on the lower level out in front of the stage would be amazing, imo. Better than any TM seats I've had.

    I'm sorry, but I can't let you get your hopes up too much dude. Better to have realistic expectations going in. My recent Chicago history with member number 165xxx:

    2003 - 10 rows on the side of stage (Stone's side)
    2006 Night 1 and Night 2 - 20th and 21st rows on the floor

    My best guess is that you'll be in rows 25 - 30 and enjoying every minute of it.
