I put in for Nashville, so since it is near the end of the Fall leg, I imagine they won’t send those notifications until later in the week. 

it'd be interesting to see how they notify this round. In 2020, they outlined what they were doing - by date.

Without notifications, the board will be blown up by 15,000 posts "I didn't get tickets, where are you seeing that you got tickets, when will they notify us about tickets"

With notification by date, that figure may drop to 8,000. 

like do we think they'll do all new shows first and let the masterminds tetris lottery winners into returned tickets or will they tetris those winners first and leave all new shows until the end? I wish they had some sort of timeline of what was happening like they did in 2020 (canadian dates were first, then the next group were the following date, etc, etc)

I would guess they do it in show order. So, LA1, everyone who picked it as they're only/top priority show gets thrown into a hat and names get drawn. If there are still tickets left, priority 2 names go in, etc. then they move on to LA2. I don't think there's any need to do the draws in order with this system, as each show is independent of the others (meaning if you get tickets to LA1, they're not going to eliminate you from getting tickets to Fresno), but I think it's a little more organized to do it this way. I mean, it's probably all automated, but I think this is the structure.

Good morning. hoping for an Ohana Instagram tease this weekend. This is the latest they have gone without an announcement which is odd. Maybe holding back because they need to wait till after these current tickets sell because of another encore weekend?? If pj wasn't playing it seems based on every other year they would have already announced. Also, seems odd pj would skip the northwest, Seattle, for the gigaton tour? Seems a few ball parks/festival could happen imo.

They have 7 arena shows to sell out first in California. I am guessing we will not hear anything until April 4th at the earliest on Ohana.

that makes sense, but shit, that's a month later than normal. That's why I think something up! haha. Getting spoiled out here!

Aren't 5 of those pretty much sold already? Of course, I say this knowing that the chatter here has been that Fresno and Sacto don't seem to be in high demand.

No clue on returns for California but the one show we have info on (Quebec City) had over half of its tickets returned. Then again I think someone here said MSG only had 5% returns. I would think California would be in the middle of those. 

Interesting. I had no idea any of the shows had that high a refund rate. I'd love to see the numbers on more shows.

Hi all, obviously it’s pretty impossible to determine the chances, but between Hamilton and Toronto which show would you think I would have a higher chance of landing tickets for? I recently put in my 10c requests. I really don’t care where I sit, I just want to be in the building for my first Pearl Jam concert. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

My gut says that many fans who were going to travel to Hamilton originally are going to have to pass, as it is right after Labor Day and schools are starting up. That said, It is also now right before Toronto, instead of 6 days after, so folks who are traveling to Toronto anyway are going to try to scoop up some Hamilton tickets, so I think both are going to be tough.

Any theories on if allowing single club tickets will help odds at all? A solid percentage of members could be taking advantage of this new option?

I'm one of those. We have Toronto 10c, decided we might as well add Hamilton. Hoping for luck in the drawing, both my husband and I put in for it.

Same here, though my partner let her membership lapse last year - she almost re-upped the week before the announcement (she got one of the "your membership has lapsed" emails), but decided against it. If we get tickets, yay, if not, we'll either spend an extra night in Toronto, or shift our trip slightly and save a bit of money. I learned from the 2020 lottery to not get my hopes up, and that was all new shows.

My husband has let his membership lapse twice, I think he's in the upper 400's maybe low 500's now :( So, he usually puts in for GA, I'll do reserved and GA. Both of us put in for Toronto, MSG, Baltimore & STL in 2020 and he was totally shut out, I only got Toronto.

We had much better luck in 2018, we both put in for GA for Seattle, I won night 1, he won night 2. That was the only time that we won diiferent nights in a city, usually we end up doubled up (Leeds & Philly that happened)

Our daughter has let her membership lapse at least twice as well (I think she's in low 600's now). We renewed for her just before deadline of 2020 draw and she won MSG. They're uppers, but out of all of us, she is the only one who got MSG tix.
