    For someone who has commented over 28,000 times, you sure do seem to not know a whole lot. 
    1. I am dumb

    2. I have never heard of Pearl Jam selling premium/VIP/stage-worn instruments/ pricey meet and greets before this tour. So, in regards to Pearl Jam I see that as another bit of a crossing the rubicon move. 


    i think this is tour 3 or 4 with PJ Premium
    Okey., Never seen anything about it when it came to the 2020 or the 2018 European tour. But maybe I was wearing some idealistic glasses blocking it out.
    actually to be fair, i think it was 2020 which became 2022, and then 2023. so really only 2. maybe?

    If you get good seats, the price is great. The bad seats are overpriced.
    I'm not sure this is said or thought enough.  The average is probably fair.

    The 1 price for all never made sense to me.  $10 or whatever difference in price levels this go around doesn't do much though.
    Yeah, the upper deck seats need to cap out around $50 to $70 like other, more popular bands--after fees it can be anywhere from $80 to $100.  I can't see them selling all these upper deck seats. I would expect entire sections to be empty until days before the show

    $175 for nose bleeds is incredible.  I didn't put in for a single show for 2nd tier pricing. No panic on getting in the building.  Plenty of seats on F2F.  If no one buys the nose bleeds they will end up dropping them to like $70 day of show. You just have to be patient. 

    We will see how in demand the shows are at the upper deck pricing.  Lower bowl gonna be sold though.

    I wish it was more tiered to allow them to drop the prices for people with smaller budgets.  Feel bad for the people who just can't get in the door with $175 being the worst seats in the house price.

    Something like this makes more sense to me:
    $200 GA
    $200 the first 2 sections / first 10 rows next to stage 
    PJ Premiums - thats fine lets concede 10% of the remaining lower bowl are premium.....
    $150 for all other lower bowl seats
    $100 for the first 5 rows of the closest 2/3 sections in upper deck
    $70 for the bad seats/side view/rear view

    Does this rule out a 2nd date?

    Decided I’m skipping the 10c lottery for Manchester. ‘GA Pit inventory is extremely limited’. It’s highly likely I’ll get seated if I’m successful. Going to try my luck with standing during the general sale.

    Your pricing is totally reasonable. And for Sacramento and maybe the first LA show, that might happen. Also, they usually sell behind the stage. Wonder if they'll do that this tour and if the prices will be the same. Probably.

    Yes. This is why I didn't register for reserved seating only. I don't actually want to increase my chances of getting a seat, because I don't want the seat that I would get! If I don't get GA, I'm actually hoping I don't get a seat, although I think the chances of that are slim unfortunately. I'd much rather choose a really good seat in the general sale than be assigned one by 10C.... And that is pretty sad. I am likely to even end up trying to unload my 10C seat via F2F and buying another ticket, we'll see. I'll probably be lucky to even find a buyer. Paying over $200 for nosebleeds or back of the floor is absolutely ridiculous. I only paid $130 for tix to Elton John, which is a bigger act, and that was the 1st row of the balcony on the aisle, which is way better than I bet I would get from 10C, unless I have a very big unexpected surprise coming with seat assignments.

    Does anyone know when the general sale is for the UK dates (assuming you are successful)?
  • Hawk123 said:
    So after alot people wondering about early entry in European shows I think 10c should mention it there is or there is not one. Cos as it seems is not.
    I saw alot of disappointment about it around cos was one of the main benefit to have 10c tickets.
    In Australian shows it mention there is an early entry for golden circle 10c tickets
    Also another thing 10c should help to solve is wrong is the fan to fan ticket sale that give u no right to sell your ticket of u dont have a bank acount in the country of the show. So if u are Canadian and got ticket to USA or German shows fr examble and want to resell your ticket to another fan u can't if u dont have a USA or German bank acount
    I know when u buy tickets u agree to the terms but would be nice 10c to help to solve this issues
    I don’t think the bank account is a requirement anymore. I bought a pair for Chicago last year, couldn’t go and sold them on F2F. I was paid out shortly after the show using Hyperwallet. Maybe the same will apply for other countries. 
    it is specified on the faqs on ticketmaster website, so it is . Where are you from?

    Canada, it might only be a US to Canada arrangement. Here’s the email I received before the payout. 

    Our payout process for cross-border sales has changed. Instead of remitting payment via check, your payment will come from Hyperwallet, a new payment option from PayPal that allows US and Canadian sellers to get paid for cross-border sales.

    We've already confirmed your transaction and payment information, and will start the payment process through Hyperwallet today. 

    You'll receive two emails from Hyperwallet:

    • One email includes a link to activate your account so you can access your payment.
    • The other email includes a link to track the payment status.

    - For fans who can’t use their tickets, Pearl Jam and Ticketmaster will offer a Fan-to-Fan Face Value Ticket Exchange for every city beginning at a later date. You must have a valid bank account or debit card within the country of the event(s) in order to sell through the Fan-to-Fan Face Value Ticket Exchange. Tickets identified for sale above face value on secondary marketplaces are subject to cancellation.

    Agree with you 100% those upper deck seats at $175 will be there for a while except maybe MSG were the majority of available seats will be premium/resale market. I put in for 9 shows not 1 of them I selected 2nd tier pricing. Call me entitled, spoiled I really don't care if I can't get in at least the lower bowl I'm not going. $175 for upper deck, no thanks.

    Yeah same here. I only put in for the lower bowl/GA for the show I want to go to. If I don't get them, oh well. It's ridiculous that someone in worst seat in the house would be expected to pay the same as someone with the best seat in the house.

  • So basically if your preference is "standing or I'd rather not be there", you're better off waiting for general sale because chances are you'll end up being assigned a seated ticket instead of a standing, right?

    Hi All, 

    I am a new PJ Ten Club member.
    I put in a request for 6 shows, which totals to around $US 2700! The shows I requested for are: 
    Chicago New York Philly
    29-Aug31-Aug 03-Sep04-Sep 07-Sep09-Sep

    I wanted to know, in your Ten Club ticket requests experience:
    1. The fact that I requested for the shows, does that mean I will get approved for all the shows? - What are the chances of that happening?
    2. In the past, whenever you requested for multiple shows you picked, did you score tickets for all?
    3. Were the tickets good? Or badly placed tickets?
    4. Do you have any experience with selling those tickets? were they easy to sell off using fan-to-fan ticket transfer?

    Let me know, so that I can make a more informed, and not an emotional decision!

    Too much work I would assume. This machine is designed to sell as many tickets and as much merch as quickly as possible. 

    ^^^This. Every suggestion made in here to make this process "better" or more "fair" will fall on deaf ears, as TicketMaster doesn't care about things being good or fair as long as they make money.

    I prefer seats at shows. Should I put in for both- seats and GA just to have something? or just seats? I know the odds are higher to get a seat, but what does everyone put that wants a seat?

    1. Not Good, MSG you can only win 1 show out of 2 due to demand....getting 1 is super lucky considering less inventory this time, Philly also tough ticket especially on a saturday
    2. Depends on city, I usually get around 75% id say, except MSG...Differnet animal
    3.Depends on your 10c #/ city...if your new, i wouldnt say bad but def not the best
    4. YES, very easy to sell.....some places though not so much, Fresno ie
