  • Could I take Quebec Reserved, and GA as well, just in case I would not be chosen for the Reserved option. Also, is 224XXX considered a high number ? Thanks

  • Don't know if this has been asked. So I apologize if it has. If I enter for one of the shows available now as my 1st choice, will that make the Chicago wrigley show my 2nd choice? Basically, will not entering for any shows now increase my chance of getting the Wrigley show when they go on sale through the Ten Club?

    Nope they are 2 separate lotteries and entering this one will not hurt your chances later

    Crazy question - how many 10c members ARE there? I'm wondering what constitutes a "high" 10c number?!

    my number is 532470.. i joined in sept.. Ottawa-reserved is still holding at 99%

    I joined in 2010 and my number is 45x,xxxx.... With smaller venues like GA is the way to go

    My reserved tickets I got for Memphis were half way up, half way around on the Stoney side

    If they're all still at 99 then they haven't had as many entry's as tickets, correct?

    Hopefully we'll meet this tour, Dave!


    ....If you see a guy in a tie-dyed "I'm Analog" T-shirt at a show,
    PLEASE say hello!!
    I have one of those too!

    So if there is still around a 75% chance for reserved seats in both Tampa and Lexington is it reasonable that as a third and fourth choice I might get tickets? I have both shows GA as one and two (assuming neither of the GAs hit).

    Look at all the shows as separate, a box for every show. Your name goes in a box for every show selection. On a first GA draw of one show of say 250 pairs, they reach into that box and pull 250 names. 100 of them are 1st priority, they get the 1st pick, 1st priority ticket awards. Those 100 are tossed and they throw the remaining 150 back in the box. They randomly draw 150 names, 100 of those names have it as their 2nd choice, they are awarded 2nd pick, 2nd priority tickets and so on.
