    Alright, after all the excitement the last 3 days and the 1000's of members coming out of the woodwork to create their own thread about every possible complaint they may have with 10C's ticketing system, let's get back to what's important here...

    TOUR THE SOUTH!
    Houston, Texas... Believe it or not, there are 7 million people here... must be a couple of fans who'd love to see you play.

    indeed.

    Now, let's pretend PJ announced a 12-14 date tour of the Sun Belt.

    Would 10C tickets have the same problems as this week?

    I'd go back to the old way of camping in line at the venue overnight to get in line for box office tickets if it meant we got shows down here. Play the south!

    In 98 I remember staying up all night outside the Dillard's where the Ticketmaster sales place was for the Dallas 98 show. Although I was 18 then and didn't have a care in the world but I'd gladly do that again for a South tour!

    Exactly. See our desperation here?? We need shows in the south!

    Exactly. People can blame the system all they want, but it's simple really, if there were more shows to pick from, there would not be so many people trying for one particular show. Play the south - hell, just TOUR PJ

    I miss those days - it was a lot of fun to get to hang out with fellow fans for a few hours. You got to make a lot of friends that way.

    And you can't tell me the same people who would take a day off work to sit in front of a computer for nine hours hitting F5 wouldn't rather spend that time hanging out with real people if it meant an easier ticket buying process.

    I miss the 90s :)
    And I listen for the voice inside my head... nothing. I'll do this one myself.

    If they would just play more than 10 shows a year, maybe this wouldn't happen. But ever since 2003, this has been the way. Short Canada tour, short South America tour, Avocado tour where a lot of the dates were as the opening act and plenty overseas, a couple of shows in 2007, mini-tour 2008, Backspacer JOKE of a tour in 2009, 2010 mini-tour and now this.

    I love Pearl Jam to death and I am excited as hell about PJ20, but come on. Break out a real tour for once.

    I remember standing in line for the Murfreesboro show in 94 at like 5 in the morning when I was 16. They sold out before I got tickets and it sucked. But the day of the show, they opened up like 500 more tickets on the side of the stage and I was able to get some and all was right. I don't know how many concerts I use to get up at 4am for to stand in line and buy tickets. Those were the good ole days. And with that being said, come back to the South!

    No problems for me... aprart from 5 hours of my time wasted...

    I scored tickets to all the shows I wanted - Toronto x 2, Ottawa, and hamilton - and then managed to log into my buddies account and score tickets for him for ottawa (the poor guy was at work trying to do it from his phone - he's one of those people that only comes around tour time ;) )

    But to answer your questions:

    for the major centers like Dallas, Houston, New Orleans, WPB, Raliegh, Memphis... I think so.

    I do, too. The problem would come not from them playing the south but from there only being 12-14 shows. Short tours = not enough tickets to go around.

    PLAY THE SOUTH!

    Shit I remember that year. Shit I just graduated H.S. 1993 I know they toured since then, but damn it sure fells like its been that long! That was a long time ago me and my buddies stood in line all night, and as more and more people showed up. It became a party in town east mall parking lot, singing songs just waiting for them to open that window. Thanks for reminding of that night, I had long forgotten u just made my day since I didn't get tickets. but i said i wouldn't bitch and I am not. They had better make it up to us by
    TOURING THE SOUTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    until next time......
