    Got the email --- 1 out of 4 shows was a winner and I am very excited that it was my 2nd choice, Philly 1. Going to be sweet, hope that everyone else was able to get one of their selections.
    So excited to board that plane Thursday for Chicago!

    Wow, I didn't get "selected" for any tickets to any shows. Not sure what the point of renewing my membership is, considering every time I try, I "don't win" in the lottery. Really? A member for over a decade and I can't even qualify for a pair of tickets to any of the shows that I try to go to?

    This is beyond irritating. Seriously debating whether it's worth even trying to go through the public onsale and settling for whatever crap seats that Ticketmaster spits out in their random nonsense.

    What a waste. Shut out from all of my attempts (including my hometown). What's the point of paying for a Ten Club membership? They should at least refund you your money if you lose out since it's the only real reason to have a membership. I wish they posted how many members put each venue as their #1 priority and then showed how many seats were available. It would make me feel better to know that there was a ridiculous amount of people trying for the same thing. Just really frustrating and disappointing.
    Pittsburgh - 09/05.  Pittsburgh 5/25
    Cleveland - 05/10.  Pittsburgh 5/25
    Pittsburgh - 10/13
    Brooklyn - 10/13
    MSG- 5/16
    Wrigley - 8/18

    10 year 10C vet is looking for one ticket to Pittsburgh. I am VERY motivated to see these guys in the city where I saw my first PJ show a decade ago. If somebody out there is awesome enough to hook me up, I'd be forever grateful. :D

    I put in for 8 shows got my first choice,Philly #1 GA.Everyone else locally got the same.I guess we
    should have had all different "first choices".It looks like the days of getting more than one city are over.
    Either the demand for tickets has overcome the availability.Pretty disappointed,At the mercy of
    Ticketmaster now :?:

    I´m so sad.... I was trying to get tickets to NY or Philladelphia, because I´m from latinamérica, that´s my only chance to travel and see the band. I saw them twice in my country (2005) , but both times I was so far from the stage... My only dream is see them play in front row... I can´t travel a lot of miles and spend a lot of money to see PJ sitting in a "Ticketmaster Location" far away AGAIN... Is any other way to get a standing GA near the stage? or a ten club ticket? This is my dream since 1993 :(

    Just got notification of Brooklyn 1 GA. Very grateful after hearing so many got shut out. This includes my wife who got nothing out of 6 entries. First time she's ever been totally smoked. I got lucky on 6 entries. So we're 1 for 12. Terrible odds in.my opinion. This new system stinks for those trying to go to multiple shows like us. Hope they ditch it ASAP.

    I was shut out too...not crazy about paying for 10C when I can't get tickets to the shows. Here's hoping I luck out with TM, or craigslist...

    As I commiserate with other frustrated ten club members over getting shut out on local tickets, I offer two novel concepts:

    Instead of putting all shows online for all fans (and scalpers) worldwide to access and dilute the odds for a fan to see their hometown show how about the 10 club allow first dibs for any given show for people within a 30 mile radius of the venue who are members? Once those tickets are gone, then let the rest of the members have at it with whatever is left. I'm sure people in Boston, NYC, Philly or Seattle would appreciate this. Get Stone to spin some sort of CO2 emission reduction policy around it.

    Better yet, analog fans. Let's do away with the soulless internet ticket distribution for fan club members and sell tickets at the box office of the venue like in the golden ages of rock n roll. Think about the jobs impact that would have! Ten Club members would get a unique code, the venue employee would be able to enter that code in the system at their box office. It means those fans who want to get off their ass and interact with humans can see the show at whatever venue they are willing to drive to.

    Yes both policies have flaws and will be unfair to some, but at least we'd have a process we'd understand instead of some cryptic odds game shrouded in secrecy.

    Now who wants to scalp me a GA ticket to Pittsburgh?

    Just got an email.
    So I paid $156 and said PRICE/PAIR.
    This is for the pair correct? Not a single ticket.

    Thanks

    I'm so sorry to those that got shut out. I wish you super good luck with TM. Remember to be signed in, and have your credit card on file already.

    I just got the email, and I got tickets. This is extra good news considering the only reason we are transferring to Naval Base San Diego is because the possibility of seeing them there sealed the deal. We will just barely have arrived in San Diego, but I will find my way to that arena! :)

    Yes, that should be the price for both tickets.

    I was lucky enough to get Reserved for Dallas and OKC (my #2 and #4 priorities) and they said that my card was charged $321+ dollars.

    8/10/2018 - Safeco Field, Seattle, WA; 8/18 & 20/2018 - Wrigley Field, Chicago, IL; 9/2 & 4/2018 - Fenway Park, Boston, MA

    Ridiculous, just got the shut out email. There is no longer any reason to be a Ten Club member. Used to be you just got your tickets straight up. Now, there just is not any legit reason to keep paying the $40 dues. All good things come to an end I guess.

    After 20 years of waiting, I'm finally seeing them, pearl jam, my favorite band ever, in Seattle. I won reserved seats so hopefully they will be good enough for me to see the band, but no matter where they are I don't care, I'm going to be in the same room with them! Last time I tried for tix was back in 1992, was first in line outside a ticket master store. My friends and I waited there all night to get tix and they opened and did a lottery drawing for first in line. I was so sad none of got tix by the time we got to the door they were sold out. This is going to be the longest wait of my life.

    I am wondering if anyone knows the answer to this question....what happens to the tickets if you are not able to personally collect them on the day? For example, say you cannot attend the show for some unknown reason and you also cannot collect the tickets to give to friends, family or even 10C members who missed out - do the reserved seats then go to waste i.e no-one gets them?

    Sorry to all the east coasters who didn't get any tix. Obviously, the demand simply far outweighs the number of tix available. This would be true with any kind of ticketing system. If everyone always used to get 10c tix then that tells me demand has gone way up and the PJ business is booming on the Northeast coast, not that there is something wrong with ticket distribution system.

    We need to start some kind of online petition for this.. this is logical and only fair. But in California im going to have to travel 150 miles one way to the Los Angeles show (and that is the closest one) so i think it should be by state not by any mile radius :)
