    BTW, G-Fury, you are one lucky human being. I would have been awed to be in his presence.
    I was awed. It now seems kinda like a blur. I am not one to get star struck but Ed has been the only celebrity I have ever wanted to meet. I am glad to say he didn't disappoint. You sometimes hear how someone meets their favorite singer or actor etc. only to be disappointed in finding out the person is actually a jerk. All I can say is Ed is a genuine nice guy who really seems to care about his fans.

    What does piss me off is that probably 6 of the 8 people getting his autograph were there just so they could sell it. I checked Ebay yesterday and sure enough I saw the same items newly listed that I saw him signing. Those people ruin it for true fans. No wonder so many don't like to sign stuff.

  • Most everyone has a different paypal address than listed in their "clubs"... wtf... mostly for security reasons... no one wants thier paypal e-mail listed on every website they belong too. I tried changing my e-mail, but the "Ten Club" would not let me... why?... because my previous EXPIRED Ten Club membership was under the "paypal" e-mail address... so when I resigned up for membership last year, I entered my new e-mail to do so... so now their computer thinks the EXPIRED membership is still active under the old e-mail... WHAT? So it is a no win... probably get better tickets from a scalper anyways.... was a previous member for YEARS back in the 90's and always got sh*tty seats... peeps who just joined up got better seats than me... so how's that work out Ten Club???

    I'm sure you could have just changed the email address your tenclub membership is associated with, just like they said you could in the email they sent out to everyone.

    Looks like this announcement is going to happen after midnight on the east coast.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    I hate this cause it is a crap shoot. I don't understand why they just can't give Ten Club members the best seats. Why do they have to randomly seat them?

    I guess I got somewhat lucky in Santa Barbara cause I was pretty close but I know some Ten Clubbers were way in the back.
  • I wrote in the text that I did try to change it... did you read that? :shock:

    Yeah, for their arena tours they generally get a lot of the best seats. Not sure why it is different for theater tours. I could understand not getting the very best section, but it's weird that all the tickets seem to be random throughout the entire theater.
  • I believe that... it has happened to me... crap seats... don't understand the Ten Club process...

    Why did you rejoin 10C if you knew going into it you wouldn't like the ticketing process/allocation?

    Ticketmaster are assholes, that's why.

    Most bands don't even bother getting special contracts to have fanclub seats, so feel privileged.

  • Fan clubs like this give the more die-hard fans a chance to get tickets before the Ticketmaster/Livenation clusterf*ck known as the public on-sale date. That's the big, main benefit of these fan sites. And I - for one - think its completely worth it.
