I decided not to go. Also I'm thinking maybe it's not worth being member of the 10c anymore. Maybe I'll wait until next year, maybe european tour again, and we'll see if things change or not.0

Sorry for asking a question that is answered somewhere....
I had some 10c tickets to London a year or two ago and I sold it to somewhere here quickly and easily with a Paypal transfer (I should have gone to those shows, but whatever). Looking at the Dublin show, will I be able to do that with a Paypal transfer or will these only be unloaded with a F2F type thing? I don't have an EU/IRE based bank account, so would rather just not bother if there is a pain in the ass to unload these.
Also... the 10c presale for the DUB gold circle is a lottery and not just a straight up purchase like London BST?Post edited by kaw753 on0 -
Do people really think that them sending out a reminder a day or so before the drawing is a sign of poor ticket sales? Seems like a bit of a stretch, no?0

My issue isn't really the price in general. My problem is that the best tix and the worst tix cost the same price. I am genuinely shocked that PJ is doing that. Not having tiered pricing, and giving people a chance to choose less expensive tix by sacrificing proximity to the stage, and making people pay over $200CAD for upper level tix makes zero sense to me.
At the end of the day, they can do whatever they want. I personally will not risk getting a nosebleed at Wrigley for $191 that I can buy for <half that price the week of the show or get better seats on F2F. First time ever I won't enter the lottery. I'm fully aware this is yelling into the void.0 -
Been a while since I logged in here - hope everyone's ok. I'm going to see through the above threads about a Manchester pre-meet nearer the time assuming I can bag 1 ticket through the pre-sale, I'm not purchasing for anyone else this time :( - no commuting though so saving travel / hotel. I'm going to rough Manchester's mean streets in a rusty campervan."oh when I was a kid, oh how magic it seemed"Manchester, England (June 04, 2000) £27.50Leeds, England (August 25, 2006) £40Manchester, England (August 17, 2009) £50 - I thinkManchester, UK (June 20, 2012) £50 - I thinkAmerican Express presents BST Hyde Park (July 08, 2022) £80

Again, the price includes fees. If we saw $140 a ticket and then at checkout saw $180, we would be bitching to Ticketmaster. As for “best seats”, it seems like this still is the case except for MSG, LA, and somewhat Seattle. Even opening the first side stage section next to the stage would do wonders for MSG applicants.2003: Uniondale, MSG x2 | 2004: Reading | 2005: Gorge, Vancouver, Philly | 2006: East Rutherford x2, Gorge x2, Camden 1, Hartford | 2008: MSG x2, VA Beach | 2009: Philly x3 | 2010: MSG x2, Bristow | 2011: Alpine Valley x2 | 2012: MIA Philly | 2013: Wrigley, Charlottesville, Brooklyn 2 | 2014: Milan, Amsterdam 1 | 2016: MSG x2, Fenway x2, Wrigley 2 | 2018: Rome, Krakow, Berlin, Wrigley 2 | 2021: Sea Hear Now | 2022: San Diego, LA x2, MSG, Camden, Nashville, St. Louis, Denver | 2023: St. Paul 1, Chicago x2, Fort Worth x2, Austin 2 | 2024: Las Vegas 1, Seattle x2, Indy, MSG x2, Philly x2, Baltimore, Ohana 2 | 2025: Florida x2, Atlanta x2, Pittsburgh x20

Despite the "Bad request - request too long" error, I got £1 charged to my c/c, so I assume it's gone through, and the site is knackered. Happy days.

The first section has always been friends, family and VIPs. But the elimination of the rest of the lower bowl is a serious bummer. The back of the floor sucks. 200s closer to the stage are better seats as long as you are no more than 15 rows up. Even 200s at the back of the arena are better than back of the floor. Going for P2 only.0 -
bbiggs said:This is exactly it. The prices for good or decent seats are fair. The fact that the worst seats in the house are the same price is the issue. Those seats were never part of the 10C ticket allotment, even as recent as the 2022 tour. It started last year. This has been spun into "getting more tickets to 10C members than ever before," but in reality it is a strategic play to sell the worst seats at top dollar that would not sell at that price in a public sale. Every 10C seat they sell has been pushed back, whether you're a 4 digit number or 750xxx. Doesn't matter. The reasons why are PJ Premium seating and no GA only option (more fans getting a seat they'll never use that entered with "GA or bust" mindset). Just look at the MSG seating map. They could improve this by doing two things. 1. Tiered pricing. 2. Allow tickets to be sold on Fan to Fan for less than face value.
At the end of the day, they can do whatever they want. I personally will not risk getting a nosebleed at Wrigley for $191 that I can buy for <half that price the week of the show or get better seats on F2F. First time ever I won't enter the lottery. I'm fully aware this is yelling into the void.0 -
Having gone back and forth about London for the last couple of days due to FOMO, I've landed on not entering. Nothing to do with the price which is definitely high, but more to do with the fact I want standing or at the very least a decent seat for that price. The fact you could pay 160 and end up on the back row is ridiculous. The only reason for them to do it this way rather than give a GA only option, is because they went to scam their most loyal fans by offloading all the crap tickets at premium prices as they know they have a loyal audience who'll risk it for a small chance of front standing. Worst case scenario I'll buy 2 nosebleed seats the week of for about £40 each.0

Sort of. It was possible to not get tickets back then too. The problem being, because it was by snail mail, you wouldn't know if you got the tickets until after the regular onsale. We duplicated our Missoula '98 tix, because we weren't 100% sure. In hindsight if I understood Montana was a small market I wouldn't of sweated it. It was also the easiest experience I ever had buying regular tickets. I called, it rang, I asked for 2 tickets, got GA.
I still remember putting in for Boston 1 in 2003 then watching the public tickets sell out before they went on sale. When they announced a 3rd night, I pounced on the tickets. When I found out I'd gotten tickets through the lottery, I sold night 3 on eBay... Only to have to go out and buy a worse pair after night 1 (if I had known then what I know now...).

I have to say, if I end up with terrible seats there's no way to justify being a member of 10c as a fan from the UK. Extortionate merch shipping means I buy nothing from the shop any more and if there's no advantage ticket wise I might as well keep the $40 each year.'F*** the pessimists. F*** 'em.' Eddie Vedder0 -
Lerxst1992 said:I 100% agree with that. I have a terrible number (my fault as I procrastinated 20 years about joining) but to be punished every show every tour is harsh, while the same fans sit next to the stage every show. The most unfair ticket policy in the history of the concert industry. But to also also pay the same price as those on the rail? The second worst ticket policy on earth.PJ Premium is fairer than those two policies. At least having a separate draw for upper level for the first time in the history this diabolical ticketing policy is fair. Let’s see whether some 70xxx fans are real fans by willing to sit behind me in the uppers, because for the first time ever, we have the choice to rule out sitting in the nose bleeds(thanks PJ!) But they’ll be in row 1 in the uppers, so they always win.
I was a member in the early 00s, but let my membership lapse due to financial issues (I know the yearly cost, especially back then, wasn't terrible, but when you know you won't be able to afford to go to concerts, you kind of ask yourself what's the point?) and re-joined in 2016, so I get the terrible number issue, but it is what it is. I've seen plenty of shows from the far side of the arena, I don't mind getting those seats through the club, as it's still easier than fighting through the Ticketmaster general public sale.That said, I 100% agree that the upper levels should be significantly less than lower. I don't even mind the current prices, just hat there should be different levels. You could even jack up the prices of the "best" seats and split the seating into more categories.
I have no idea how much input the band members have on this, or if it is just the management making these decisions, but there's no way this is all Ticketmaster.Post edited by mpedone on"I'm a lucky man, to count on both hands the [shows I've done].

Lerxst1992 said:My wife bought us a small carvel cake tonight to celebrate Valentine’s Day. $35 usd. Please let that sink in how expensive that is for a small cake. Everything is expensive.does PJ have more employees. Probably. Do they need better accommodations with needs that come with aging, larger families and circles of friends, more equipment. More physical therapy. More medical needs. Probably. Do the challenges of aging add to the cost, considering the full tour is around 30 shows and younger bands can spread out their overhead by playing 50 shows? Of course it’s much more expensive for PJ.
I was at a major arena show recently. 50 tractor trailer trucks with equipment. Probably a crew of 100 working on the tour, with many on the backline unionized. It’s easy to forget how incredibly expensive a major tour can be.
