    I'm worried since I haven't been a member very long, just over two years, that if I end up with reserved (I chose best available) I won't have good seats. If that's the case I'm more than willing to pay more to upgrade, but with public tickets going on sale first I'm kind of put in a predicament..... should I try to purchase the best ticket available through Verified Fan/Public Sale without knowing where my 10c seats are going to be? According to what I've read it seems I'd be able to sell the 10c tickets at face value through the Fan to Fan Exchange but I know that's a brand new process so I'm not 100% sure that'd be the case. 

    I love the band and will be grateful just to be in the building, I'm just trying to maximize my concert experience 
    I think it's moot.  PJ takes up all the best seats.  Ergo (unless something goes wrong). The worst 10c seat should still be better than the best public seat.   The only exception might be release holds later on.   Stuff that was held for friends/family/radio but not used.  Sometimes some side stage tix closer to the day of the show kind of thing.   For the most part though... TM will be worse.
    I think you're glossing over people's concerns. Some here are unconvinced--especially given TM's role in the process--by the bit I bolded. I'd like to think you're right, but we don't/can't really know, can we?
    Completely agree, this was gonna be my response. I hope you're right, pretty much have to wait and see.

    I chose the “help Ed make the setlist” option.  $500 Canadian which equates to $2 usd.  
    For only $4500 CDN more, I got "Pearl Jam plays only Rush and Tragically Hip songs".
    How much to replace Rush with Alexisonfire?


    Sorry no thrash here. We only take City and Color requests. Only if it’s requested with the American spelling. 
    Dallas Green is just a short kayak ride away from me, I can put in a request?


    Closer to Lakeside Park or Erica Strange?

    I got an email saying I got QC; it was my first and only priority, I selected best available.
    I assumed, based on the wording, that we'd be notified of GA vs Reserved in this email, and that actual physical seat locations would be released the week of January 27.  There would be no way that they wouldn't know between GA and reserved, so why not include that.
    While I am happy to have 10C tix and be in the door, I would like to know what general location they are, especially given that I won't find out until after the two other sales--we're still trying to sort out numbers of people, tickets, travel, etc., so it would be nice to know GA vs. Reserved...
    This is what I am concerned about. Hopefully, the 10C tickets will be better than the tickets that are sold to the general public right?
    I feel like because it is all in the hands of TM and the odds are 99% for most shows this may no longer be true.
    I'm starting to get worried that the deal cut here was a higher number of total tickets potentially available for the lottery in exchange for more "flexibility" around which tickets those actually end up being.
    The 99% would only be reflective of the quantity of tickets, not the quality?

    I could be wrong, but it would seem odd if PJ put in all this effort and let some of the best tickets go to general sale/scalpers?

    well I guess the nice thing about putting only GA or only reserved in this case is that you will know exactly what you got without them having to confirm it 
    I wonder how many people, had they known that you wouldn't find out til after the public sale, would have put reserved only, or GA only, as their request

    I wonder what % of GA is available for TC?  Will the entire PIT be TC and the rear "floor" sections be for everyone else?
    That's pretty much how it's always been with some exceptions, but I'm sure some GA tickets will wind up on the ticket exchange.
    I looked back and in the 2016 tour announcement, they made a point of saying that the club had "acquired" the entire GA pits. Unless I missed it I don't think they said that this time, so we're just guessing.

    Wife requested only 1 show for Quebec, best available, she got the email. I requested best available for 1 Canada (Ottawa) show, 1 US show, and I haven't heard anything yet.

    Just confirming - the commemorative ticket option gets me a picture with Ed, right?
    I read that if you chose the commemorative ticket option, then you'd be pulled up to the side of the stage for the show.

    And fuck that with getting a cup to pass. They give you your own bottle of Barolo, too!

    Hm, that's true. I feel like if they didn't have access to the entirety of what's already a small pit area though, that the odds of GA tickets would be much lower than they were for most of these shows. Unless there's substantially less demand than in previous tours, which I doubt?

    Can the people that are getting the Quebec tickets say what they picked and what round? Help out those that are still waiting.

    I definitely would have thought about it.

    I might have too but would have immediately dismissed it. It would be better to know but it doesn't REALLY make a difference, at least to those of us looking at the high-demand shows in NY and MD - I need more tickets for both to accommodate family & friends and will be scrapping for whatever I can get next Thursday regardless of if/where I have club tickets. To me the issue is not that I'm being harmed by them not telling us now, it's that I can't escape the conclusion that Ticketmaster is playing some kind of game here and that pisses me off.
