So, I got a 2nd pair of tix for Austin1. Is this happening to others? Just this show?

Curious how there can be so many resale listings on seatgeek already…is there anyone who can explain that to me?

Anyone can log into SeatGeek, or Stubhub, or any other ticket site and claim they have tickets and create a listing...speculators looking for suckers to pay them a fortune now, they'll take that cash and buy cheaper tickets later for their buyers

20 minutes ago I hit N2 Chicago, my #1 priority. 200-Level side (High 10c#, 599xxx iirc).

I also put in for N1 Chicago, haven't heard yet.

Requested GA/Reserved and Reserved for both.

Anyone get two separate confirmations for the same night with different seat locations? The second email has worse seats. Ugh.

GA for Ft Worth 9/15 (night 2); GA Pit or Reserved & Reserved; first priority

Section 126, row 9 for 9/13 (night 1); GA Pit or Reserved & Reserved; second priority

Sample seating chart:

That is a BIG GA section!! Pumped!

This isn’t the layout for the ft worth shows. I got floor section 2 which isn’t on here. Someone else posted an accurate one, normal
pit size

Sorry. That was me posting a sample seating chart because I didn't see a Pearl Jam one. Sorry for the misinformation. ✌️

All, it's not totally confusing as to why someone who listed any show as 2nd priority would get a ticket and someone with 1st priority wouldn't. My understanding is they group those in 1st priority, run the randomizer/lottery and issue tickets to those who get picked. Once that's done they do that again for 2nd, 3rd, 4th priority etc until all the allotment is gone.

I could be wrong. Someone let me know if they know otherwise.

No. First priority are drawn first. If tickets remain, they move on to second priority entries. A first priority person should never lose and a second priority person win.

That's not how it's worked for the last few tours I don't believe. Been multiple past examples of 2nd, 3rd priority ppl getting tickets and 1st priority ppl getting nothing. it's caused a lot of butthurt for some folks. My first priority was Chicago N1. Haven't received an email yet. Yet some people at 2nd priority have reported getting reserved tickets.

That is the reason we put priority down. It makes no sense to have priority for pics if it was random as you said. In no way should someone that picked a show as a 2nd get it over someone that put it as a first. That is a broken system

All I'm saying is there was a person here who said they got St Paul tickets for both nights at 5th and 6th priority and then there are people who put those as 1st and/or 2nd priority and haven't heard back yet. I guess they could still get tickets if they're sending out the emails by 10c number.

People are thinking about "priority" wrong here. This has *nothing* to do with who has "priority" to get drawn, it is *only* and *strictly* your own personal prioritization of your preference of shows to attend. How to translate those personal rankings into something that looks fair across a matrix of multiple people ranking multiple instances is an entire field of study and there are a thousand ways to do it depending on what factors are considered more important.

Then what is the point of them asking it? Not looking for a fight, just seems to needlessly complicate things if it doesn't have any impact on what order people get drawn.

Lol right it is so simlple

5000 pairs to go out for 10C

Priority 1 is drawn

3000 people have it as a first pick. All win

Priority 2 is drawn

2500 people have it as a second pick. 2000 win. 500 lose.

Everyone after priority 2 loses

This is not hard.

With respect, you're very wrong because you're oversimplifying the problem space. Your example doesn't have 9 events with people ranking subsets of them. A forum post isn't the place to get into it, but for some enlightening lay-audience-oriented discussion take a look for example here: https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/372916/ranked-preference-matching-algorithm or google "ranked matching", "preference matching", "stable matching", "bipartite graphs", etc.

Folks all I'm saying is sometimes they'll hide the lyrics to a new song in plain sight

If it’s Austin N1 you’re not alone.

Speculative selling. Promoter and venue tickets. Could even be band tickets for all we know.

Well, this could suck.

Will somebody who has double Austin Night 1 tickets if they for some horrible reason let you keep them, will you put me on your nice list to sell? That was my option #1

Remember the good old F5 days? Log in at a certain time, refresh until you get the tickets you wanted.

Then you had the anticipation of seeing what seats you were going to get when you picked up your printed tickets, that probably only cost $60. For some reason, even though that was nearly 2 decades ago, the 10C seats were better then too, despite logic dictating that one's seats should improve over time.

I have a few thoughts on that.

My tickets got further back with every tour for a while. When it went from tickets to one show on the tour to multiple shows my tickets pushed a few rows back. When they introduced the lotto for 1/2 and 9/10 it pushed me further back. GA also pushes the tickets further back if you don't land GA. So it's true.. you do seem to go further back over time. Because membership has seniority benefits, I think people with older memberships mostly hold on to them, so unfortunately you don't really accrue much seniority over time.

In regards to F5 it's back. With Fan2Fan and tickets being able to be dropped at any time, depending on your will, determination, and level of OCD, you can refresh the crap out of the TM website page for the show you want to go to and attempt to get tickets (or upgrade existing tickets).

I remember when the 2011 Canadian Tour brought the 10c site to it's knees (and that's when f5 ended), but now there's a new way to F5 to one's content

Coming up on 6PM EST

How are us Chicago N1 folks who had it as our #1 feeling?

oharajohn83 · April 2023

Asked this earlier, but as a newbie, if I got an extra pair of tickets (decent Dallas/FW pair) will I have any trouble selling them on the exchange? Thanks for any insight for a rookie here.
