    How do 10c tickets work in the US ? In Europe we still collect on the day at the venue 
    Last couple have been done by TM and it is a mobile ticket so no willcall needed. We find out our seats well in advance too. 
    So no lottery? Fastest on TM gets tickets?
    There is still a lottery, and they will prob do verified fan as well.


    Yup. Europe is how it used to be here with "pay in advance, pick up at the window on the day of the show. If you can't go, you're out the money."

    The only major difference is that there's usually a really good chance at getting floor tickets, due to their floors being really huge.

    Depending on the show, 10C tickets may include wristbands for early entry or there may be a 10C floor section in front of the regular floor section. (I think it's all GA standing.)

    No radio station chatter. That Philly announcement turning out to be Metallica is a killer. 
    Ouch yeah Philly would probably be one of the places I’d drive to see them or Boston! So what is it about this band I wish they would just have the guts to state hey folks we don’t like touring as a band anymore! Beatles did it lol, it’s hard to think otherwise you can’t tell me this is band that likes to hit the road every year, like Bruce or DMB etc etc etc
    They clearly do not.  They show up when they need money.  And we take what we can get. 
    I’m pretty sure money isn’t an issue for them.  
    Agreed. 

    To think they only tour when they're hard up for cash is laughable. 
    See my earlier post.  They aren't broke.  They do only enough to get the earnings they want (my opinion).  I'm extremely jealous of their situation.   They built an annuity stream that requires them to tour about 3 weeks a year and every so often make an album.  

    Exactly. The new album lets casual fans and everyone else know they're still out there. The tour does exactly the same.

    So, the logic here is that they hate touring, but still do it, and still record albums to remind people they're still out there?

    I think people play way too much into the quote, but Jeff said he wasn't a fan of touring, but then he goes out and makes a lot of money for the skate parks.

    Did Pierre say MMRBQ? Yes, he said MMRBQ. Specifically he said "MMRBQ in September." He added that that lineup and date of the show will be announced on Monday, April 10th at the same time as the first Concert Cash keyword is given out. That's 8am if you need a reminder.

    I get the idea that touring sucks, especially as you get older, but they don't strike me as the type of people to just do something for money. 

    There's no shortage of things these guys can do to raise money for charity... again, I point to Jeff's poster sale as exhibit A. 

    I also understand the angle that they have employees they want to keep fed, that makes sense too; with all that being said, I can't imagine they would keep putting themselves through the process of putting out albums and touring if their hearts weren't still in it.
