lets reverse it...what if you had 10 Club seats and LiveNation said "Wait, those are ours" and poof...they were gone....fair?

how will this be rectified Tim, SLH, Kat, Sea......those who agreed to this contract are getting absolutely screwed

How are you getting screwed? As of now, you haven't lost out on anything yet and if LN gets you your money back, there's no damage done. You can still buy VIP tickets they just won't be as close as LN promised you. No 10club tickets have been sold yet, you can still go that route. Why should 10club have to rectify anything? LN promised you something that they can't deliver on. It's not like tickets are sold out already, you still have time to get tickets.

I understand being frustrated at how this played out but why do you think the deserve to be compensated with something out of this mix up?

but we learn our seat at the day of the show..till that day the 10c tickets will be in 10c hands and live nation will have sold theirs..there wasnt a possibility to be 2 printed tickets for the same seat
and 10c didntpromised ypou 6th row tickets and didnt sell them so expensive..i really think that isnt that you dont understand..you dont WANT to understand

Sawyer,

Thank God I did.....I would have gone to my seats and 81 would have been there too Can you imagine of I did not post this and they double sold...I mean..can you...I should be getting 10 Club gift cards for this info

But that's the thing, they wouldn't have been double sold...

what makes you think Live Nation gave 10C all the seats? I highly doubt that, especially seeming how Tim says in his post that you will be seated behind the 10C seats...

Live nation gives 10C the tickets. Not like "contractually" gives, I mean they physically issue them the tickets. So when they printed out 10C's tickets, they just would have bumped their seats back another row to accommodate tickets that they had sold, done and done!

I can't understand why you expect 10C to rectify this. You purposely tried to go around their ticketing philosophy by making this purchase with live nation. You essentially flipped them the bird and said, "Fuck your policies I will not sit on the lawn and share the seats with my fellow 10 clubbers."

Why the fuck should they help you at all?

It really does suck for Sawyer. But LN was at fault not 10c. Make sure you get refunded and move onto the Monday presale. To say this as nice as possible 10c don't owe you anything

josevolution · May 2011

they should have never been available for purchase because 10 Club said, sorry, these are ours.

But don't you think the rep at LN should of stated that to you on the day you made the transaction, the only way Tim or anyone at 10C would of been able to stop you from that transaction would of been if they knew ahead of time that you were planning on that route , you came here after the fact ...

Sawyer,

my contract would have been for three $900 Season VIP tickets...or $2700 total....not the even more expensive BOX option

skintowin · May 2011

Sawyer,

Ya we paid more than $2700 for the VIP box seats

Sawyer · May 2011

a direct quote from the rep..interesting...this was early on in the e mail process:

"Yes, for 3 shows if you choose Alpine only and it is per seat.
I only have 4 seats left.

I do not have any knowledge of what holds or seats the Fan Club is using. I know my season seat holds and that is the extent of it."

so if he has HOLDS he must still have these? lawsuit waiting to happen

This is a little harsh, no? There will be plenty of avenues to purchase tickets outside of being in the Ten Club, and he thought he found one. I agree that it doesn't seem the Ten Club erred, but it's unfair to intimate he's thumbing his nose at anyone. Anyone who thought they were getting awesome seats and has that much money tied up in them would be really frustrated right now.

you're out of bounds Shep

Yeah I guess it's sorta like those few hundred fans who were kept out of the Super Bowl cause there was something wrong with their seats.....but on a much smaller scale.
