    Which uni? Newcastle or Northumbria?

    Just realized I couldn't buy tix on my Mac (7 hours of trying) and my hubby's computer died a month ago (took me 5 minutes on that). He's been on my case to get a new one but I keep saying no...now I have to say yes so I stand a chance of getting tix...bummer! :? He'll be so happy, he will HAVE to let me go to Europe though :lol:

    An 'evening with' type affair at The Sage in Gateshead would be immense - that place has the most incredible sound!!

    I'd love to get down under for some shows. The last tour looked massive. Going to the US for a Seattle or NY Garden gig would be the ultimate though.

    I'm a brand new member, and I really want to try to get tickets to whatever or wherever this next announcement will be, as it will be my first of many hopefully shows. My question is can someone explain to me exactly how I can get tickets, I assume I will go under the goods section once its announced or posted, but from there I dont really know how to get them as I assume they will be gone quick, especially after hearing get your f5 fingers ready? Can someone shed some light on this situation please? Thank you

    tickets will go on sale at a specific time ... depending on the demand for your tickets - it can be a painful process or a kick to the junk ...

    login into the fan club site and goto the tickets page ... as soon as the show is available - you choose your show and hope that there is a buy button at the bottom ... click that and you will be taken to an order confirmation ... say yes ... then you will need to fill in your address and details ... hopefully, you've done that ... then if you are lucky - you will get to the payment page ... hopefully, you get through all those steps and your purchase order is in your order history ...

    the primary problems associated with this process is that the servers have been historically inadequate resulting in tickets sitting in baskets ... orders timing out and people losing their tickets before paying for them ... some of that is related to members opening up a gazillion browser windows ... either way ... if you get the buy button ... it is best to keep hitting refresh (F5) until you progress along each step as opposed to hitting back or starting again ... some people would suggest using firefox ... some swear by other browsers ... hard to say ...

    there has been talk of improving this process but only time will tell ...
    So, if I understood correctly, the number of tickets here is VERY limited, right? And you have to be lucky to get them? And being in the similar time zone with Seattle helps? :D How long does it take for the tickets to sell out?

    One more question. Are the tickets you get here as members cheaper or are the positions you get better? Or is the frenzy just the result of the eager fans’ wish to be the first to have them? Because, after this is sold out there are still thousands of tickets available for the non-members… ?

    Just to remind everyone of the original note:

    A little birdie tweeted us to say "we should have our Ten Club memberships & addresses up to date by the 5th of December." Then he flew away tweeting something that we thought sounded like, "Cheerio, Auf Wiedersehen, Farvel…"

    That is today. Which means the earliest anything will be officially announced is tomorrow, December 6.

    Now, back to refreshing :lol::lol: (I can't help myself)


    Or: Christmas 3 weeks ahead + addresses up to date = holiday single arriving on time this year? :lol::lol: :?:

    Sometimes waiting for ticketmaster is a better option.... For US shows Ten Club members get privileged seats awarded by 'seniority', but European shows are usually General Admission - without numbered seats - so the Ten Club bonus is you often get earlier admission, so you can be pressed up against the front row!c ;)

    Dunno if very limited is correct, but it can be difficult. Although personally i've never had any problems. But that was in Australia,

    The tickets inmy experience have been slightly more expensive, again that could be an australian thing, but more than likely the venue going "if you want priority, you pay for it"

    Thanks, guys. :)

    @Sloth2 – So in Australia you also get earlier admission if you buy tickets here? I’ve never heard of such thing. In Europe in my experience you get the front row only by showing up a few hours early. No privileged admission. But I’ve never been to a pearl jam show, so… :)

    Pearl Jam stylee is you get a wrist band when you pick up your Ten Club ticket, and the venue let the people with wrist bands in first, and they all charge in to get their spot. Separate queues.....

    There will be an announcement of when the tickets will go on sale - days away - they don't usually just put the tickets straight up. The announcement will probably come tomorrow early in the working day Seattle time

    Ana it has worked two ways.

    In the shows where it is a seated venue you get priority tickets

    In shows where it is GA, you get wrist bands and early entry.
