IVE SEEN THEM FAR BACK NUMEROUS TIMES

any ga show in a big venue im far back,,the days of pushing up front are over
and while iam happy to be there,, its just not the same for me being in the back with the evenflow people

i need and want the up close experience as much as possible,, you would be silly to think otherwise

its not about see their noses silly goose

its all about the vibe ,,which doesnt get any better than up close

in a seated arena all the up close people are hardcore fans (for the most part) and the vibe is the best

in the shows where i have been further back i have found myself dancing and singing to myself..and that blows
i.e lolla me, xman, and trixie were abit further back and it was us 3 plus 5 -6 others into it
everyone else was just standing there and the vibe wasnt that great there

so while im sure some shows have big fans in the back...ill take my chances up close


good n ight all

I let my membership run out this year, after 13 years of having it.

I've seen them in the front row, and I've seen them from the back. After 30+ shows, my seats have never once had a huge effect on my experience at the show.

Every year they came to GreatWoods (MA) i always chose to do one night with fanclub seats, and one night on the lawn (sometimes didn't have a choice due to the 2nd show being added on late) and I always had just as much fun on the lawn. Hell, I went through TM at MSG in 2003, because I wanted to sit with a group of friends as opposed to just one friend up front.

I've never left a show saying, "that would've sucked if we weren't sitting up front" and I've also never said, "that show would've been much, much better if we had better seats"

nutthin' like a good seniority/non-seniority conversation to pass a dull wednesday afternoon.

There are some of us working class Americans that have spent years dilligently working our way up the 10 Club staircase. Inch by inch. Row by row. We have paid too much money in worthless rising membership fees through the years just to keep our seating priority. I'll be damned if I'm going to let my hard earned 12th row tickets go to some sniviling Johnny come lately punk who signed up for the 10 Club three months prior when he heard that New Found Glory was opening for Pearl Jam. You can have my ticket when you can pry it from my cold dead hands.

You are not born with the right to go see Pearl Jam. It is listed nowhere in the constitution. The 2nd Amendment doesn't read "You have the right to bear arms...and go see Pearl Jam".
