    Your buddy's "board user id" may be 65XXX, but I'd bet dollars to doughnuts that's not his member number.

    do you ever wish you could just call these people out properly and tell them to _____________ (fill in the blank)? I tip my hat to you as taking the high road reading this stuff can not be easy.

    So is this what is going on? Are some people confusing their default board names with their actual 10C #? I know it appeared that I had a number somewhere in the 35,XXX range after the big changes to the new board, but my real # number is no where near this. I wonder...

    My post wasn't to argue...the guy who posted all the seating info didn't even list section 307 so that's why I posted my spot

    sec 112 was pretty good in my opinion for my buddy....he had no complaints

    are you thinking he was actually a higher #?

    edit: I checked touring fans....I see your point

    Agree 100%... 4 of us drove out from Detroit: me and my friend sat in my seats (141xxx) and we were side stage section 114. The other 2 guys sat in 10C seats (66xxx) and they were 5th row center.

    the trend I'm seeing is that lots of people "had a buddy" or "knew a guy" that got bad seats...lots of hysteria over rumors.

    I'm 133,xxx and was row 23 (the magic number in the United Center). From the brief conversations I overheard it seemed everyone around me had similar numbers. Based on the numbers attending that show, I couldn't have asked for anything more...

    i think a lot of people that thought they had lower numbers let their membership lapse at some point and have higher numbers but don't know it

    i bet this is true. all the 150xxx peeps were in the same section at the show. i started asking because there was some guy in the 10c line at CHI #1 flipping out because he was not where 'he thought he should've been.'

    was there some kind of screw up where some people didn't get seated right? who knows. i just can't believe people weren't excited to be at a PJ show and were all focused on what they didn't get. i mean fuck people, did you see the merch for night #1? $35 backspacer t-shirt?? :?

    Interesting. Has anyone been able to quantitatively contradict their seat location with a valid 10C # yet? Or is trying to clarify this all just busywork for the 10C?

    as far as I can tell, Santos has called everyone with specific complaint out as not having the number they claimed...I haven't read the entire thread, though...

    With all due respect, anyone expecting "great seats" after joining the club post 1999, is just plain high... So for a 300xxx and certainly a 400xxx to be bitching, it's silly. Your reasons for joining should have been the single and Deep magazine. Your ticket purchases should be thru Ticketmaster or elsewhere. Sorry to say it this way.... These shows have taken the souls out of some people here. Everyone at this point feels that much more entitled to this band than the next guy. That's bogus. Now you know there is a chance in the future you may not be happy with your seats. So next time, buy elsewhere. I promise the Ten Club won't mind... or care for that matter. Peace, Mike

    with my crappy 314xxx number i was beyond thrilled both nights to get the seats i did.

    thankful to Be there, something that is getting lost in all of the number crunching.

    it was a ten club ticket heavy show. period.

    this argument is mute.
