From what Im reading, in order to get GA tickets you just need to be a 10 club member by the time they make an announcement right?

So couldnt someone just join in the future, right when Kat or Sea tell us to get our memberships in order. This hypothetical person would be lowest on the totem pole, but could still and would still get GA seats right?

So essentially all you have to do to get GA seats is be a member at the absolute bare minimum

    But you aren't guaranteed to get GA tix, they're probably the most in-demand type of tickets, and you still have pick up your tickets in person with ID the day of the show, which helps prevent scalping.

    I think it's awesome. If you haven't read between the lines that PJ is sick of playing to the same old crowd.....you haven't been paying attention. PJ WANTED THIS!

    It makes perfect sense for the club. This is how they'll get new people to join and there will be new blood up front.
    This show, another show, a show here and a show there.

    This one. It seems like the Missoula show must have been a factor in this decision. Good energy from the crowd down front and the band responded to that. I've been in the 10c for over 13 years and think this is a good choice. If you want to get on the rail, get in line at 6 a.m. and show your commitment to the band.

    I agree... It's great. I've been a fan forever, but never made it to a show. We finally went in 2010 and we were hooked. PJ makes it to Indy about every 7 years, so we're willing to travel to see them because it's really worth it to us. Wrigley will be our 4th show & 3rd state that we've attended, and I'm hoping to add additional shows beyond that this year.

    I'm glad 10c give fans like myself a chance to see the band in GA via a lottery. I'd go nuts if I were able to score seats up close. If the band feeds off the crowd, I'm sure they love providing what some fans may consider and experience of a lifetime to watch up close.

    just like in Europe, but you don't hear the Europeans bitching and moaning over it...it's about time that we actually have some energy up front over here in the states!

    That's why I'm seeing so many GA tickets for Wrigley going for $20k on StubHub and eBay... :fp:

    Same boat here! I'm stoked at the chance for GA! If I get it I will faint, if not, I'll still be flying my freak flag in the reserved - 10c or not. I think we'll all see a big difference in the crowds this tour. I can't wait!

    The show is what you make it, not how close you are.
    Please, Pearl Jam, consider a Benaroya Hall vinyl reissue! http://community.pearljam.com/discussion/148993/please-pearl-jam-consider-a-vinyl-benaroya-hall-re-issue
