    So what about me... I am used to getting in the 1st or 2nd row? Should I be upset? ... I don't think so.

    Imagine... I should get 3rd and 4th row now but I could randomly be selected about 9th or 10th row. How screwed would I be!

    It is all relative and it will all be okay...

    actually, it's been stated that that simply will not happen. if you are meant to be in front of row 9, you still will be. how all the math of it shaeks out...fuck if i know :p.....but it's been posted by the powers that be a few times. so no one would get thrown BACK by the random lottery. shall only be set back 2 rows if you're normally 1-2....or set back 4 rows if you're 9-10.


    i like you're attitude though! :) absolutely....it's OK. :p MORE than OK really. i am PSYCHED to read stories of people who *luck out* with the new assignments, i think very exciting and FUN! :D
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow

    I just recall the number of times I got crappy tix before joining 10C. Even with a raffle, I'm better off now.

    LISTEN--I had to chime in- I have been a member since the very beginning. I forgot to send in my CHECK in 94 and now I have a 164xxx instead of 5xxx. Every show I see the same people up front. I have waited and asked the FRONT rowers if they could trade a front row for an 11th row for 1) a wedding anniversery, 2) friend who had not seen PJ and 3)!!!!! a friend DYING of cancer!!!! All in which the fans who I had seen THE NIGHT BEFORE and probably 5 shows before that or all the shows said NO. I offered enough money to them to fund a college fund and still NO. Well, FUCK THEM. YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE. I hope and pray each day that I get the front row and even if I dont, I hope that the folks in the front row and second turn around and MOCK the HELL out of the BORING BITCHING folk in the 3rd row. Selfish --just plain selfish.

    ( i feel better)

    Good post. The new system is awesome. I've got 4 chances to get to the front row. Can't wait to find out. And if I don't get them, I'm still at a Pearl Jam and not at work!

    this whole random thing is very shady....i went to 8 EV shows. 6 of them on the 10C, which was supposed to be random for every 10C seat.

    Santa Cruz = 13th row center
    Berk 1 = 10th row center
    Santa Barb = 10th row left
    LA 1 = 12th row left
    LA 2 = 11th row left
    San Diego1 = 14th row right


    does that look random to you?

    while i kept noticing the same people "randomly" in front of me the entire night.

    and my 10C # is 142xxx which puts me in the 10th-11th row at senority shows. i think this random stuff is BS.

    Looks good to me... Your worst seat only had 13 people in front of you. Me, I'd consider myself lucky to be in the last row for an Ed solo show. You California folk don't know how envious we are of you

    do you have tix to get into the building? good....now sit back and enjoy the music....last i checked, that's what this is all about.....

    exactly :D
    be thankful that we get the oppertunity to buy the best seats in the house, whether they are first or 50th row. They are going to be better than the 400's at MSG which might have been your only chance through ticketmaster!

    Personally i would prefer GA shows, where i can hang out in the queue all day and end up up the front having a rocking time... that is what my last 5 shows have been :)
    2003 - Sydney x3,
    2006 - Reading Festival,
    2007 - Katowice, London, Nijmegen, Rock Werchter,
    2008 - MSG x2, Hartford, Mansfield x2, Beacon Theater,
    2009 - Melbourne, Sydney,
    2010 - I watched it go to fire!
    2011 - EV Brisbane x3, Newcastle, Sydney x3,
    2012 - Manchester x 2, Amsterdam x2, Prague, Berlin x2, Stockholm, Oslo, Copenhagen,
    2014 - Sydney, EV Sydney x3

    I wave to all my Friends... Yeah!

    Just to respond to everyone about 98% of fans being pushed back...it's not true. The further back you go the less your chance of being moved. If you are in row 20, there is a higher chance the golden ticket winners will be randomly selected from the majority of fans in front of you. If you're in row 5 then unfortunately you're virtually guaranteed to get moved.

    It's all statistics people....use your math skills!

    I think much of this would have been solved with designating home town shows. This would alleviated the same faces at every show. I have a mediocre number, but I would like to at least have a reasonable seat at a show in Grand Rapids or Detroit rather than have everyone from Chicago bump me back.

    Everytime I went to Detroit-Toronto or Detroit-Cinnci I saw a large percentage of the same people in the front.

    I know everyone wants to see PJ at MSG, but really New Yorkers should get a shot at the front rows.
