Sold Out

I have been a ten club member for a long time now. It has always upset me that PJ never visits Seattle, so when this upcoming tour included Seattle I was very excited. I went onto ticket master and registered as a fan not really expecting to even get a code but I did it anyway. I was really surprised when I did get a code but as soon as i logged in, i found out that the tickets were all gone. two stadiums worth of tickets were sold before I even had a chance.
What was the point of the codes? if more codes were given to people then there were seats available what was the point? if all of 2 stadiums worth of tickets was gone before i could even log in then there must have either been some bots buying tickets, or most of the tickets were just all already sold before lowly 'registered fans' could even try. I still want to go, so hopefully the scalpers don't charge too much.
Yes I am complaining about something out of not only my control, but also many others. But instead of the normal internet rage that I see in many posts elsewhere, in this case i just feel disappointment. I guess that is all.

If you're a long time 10 club member why didn't you put in for tickets thru the 10club lottery?
And regarding the Verified fan sale they can't know in advance how many tix each individual is purchasing so that's why there would be more codes than available tix to purchase.

I thought that is what I signed up for, I guess if that is not what the code was for then I am likely at fault.0

I realize that it is too late for this event, however can someone please tell me how to find the 10 club lottery so that i can make sure I sign up for it next time (assuming PJ ever visits Seattle again.)
Even though I have been a member for a while and I keep paying for it, I have never actually posted anything until today and I rarely actually visit this site.0 -
Pretty sure there will be tickets available this Wednesday during the public on sale event.0

You should have received an email back on January 24 explaining everything and a few subsequent email reminders.Info is also on the news page on main Pearljam.com site.

I have the 40$ membership. I think it is obvious at this point that I messed this up and thought i was signing up for one thing when in fact i was signing up for something else. I will keep an eye out for public tickets. Thank you for all of your responses, I did not expect them to be so quick, and sorry for wasting your time.0

And just to add.....Verified Fan is not a guarantee of tickets once you receive a code. Also Verified Fan does not offer an infinite number of tickets.
It is a really sale access event with a specific number of tickets available.0 -

Hopefully you will be able to snag some in the first few minutes of the public sale. For that I highly recommend doing the buddy system and you each have multiple browsers open with the waiting room going, that will increase your chances of one of you getting in for tickets. My buddy and I were able to get seats for 2014 Moline and 2016 Wrigley that way so it does happen! Best of luck!0 -
Most of the people that got the later time slots in the verified fan sale more or less were shutout. They just didn't word it that way.
I hope you score tickets through the general sale this week. And also you can ask other fan cklub members if anyone has an extra for sale.0 -

You can always get tickets to stadium shows. As stated above, there are and will be plenty of tickets offered here. Stick to paying face value and no more.
Good luck.

Kinda similar to you Dimitrispearjam, I’m wondering jwaresolutions if you receive and read the emails the TenClub sends out about tickets? I’m trying to figure out how you received the TM Verified Fan info but not TenClub presale info? But also agree with others who’ve said there will be tix at public TM sale and tix here on forum. You’ll find them one way or another.0

I read the Ticketmaster guide to buying tickets and it made it really simple. I went to Tickets.com the night before and simulated buying tickets there for Chicago (using the Foo Fighters show) to see what was involved. I had 10:30 for my presale but I went to the Tickets.com site and followed the link to the Cubs website with presale code login. It was in a waiting mode so I stayed there until I got my code and I got lucky that the window for my code popped up off the waiting list right when I got my code, put in for 2 best available, got section 113, row 5 and purchased no problem. I was kind of stunned to tell you the truth, LOL.0
