    Just scored a great upgrade for Vancouver N2 on F2F. So I’m posting a floor row 20 pair if anyone is still looking for tickets. 
    Good luck in the sale. Unfortunately N2 appears to have plenty of tickets still available and the floor doesn’t seems to be popular among the general audience. Too bad TM didn’t allow to set your own price. 😒
    Surprisingly they sold in 15 minutes. Glad I put them up now. I could’ve easily gotten stuck with them had I waited until closer to the show.

    How is the view, or how close would row 2 be on the floor… just behind the pit?  Can you see well - even if short?  Lol.  Ive only even been in GA or on the wings. Thanks!

    Section 117, row 10. Nice upgrade over my not so great floor pair (which surprisingly sold very quickly). Hoping to eventually upgrade my way to GA! Speaking of which, if anyone on here would like to trade a GA for my Section 117, I would be happy to oblige!

    No, but we were contemplating the violent femmes at the commodore between shows, but I'll most likely go do a hike in the northshore mountains somewhere :)

    Also.. does anyone remember Vancouver '98.   My first show were they played a song after YL.   Eddie's like.. com'on, one more, and they did a blistering version of Baba O' Riley. so good :)
    That was my first show ever! Life changing!
    Did either of you buy the poster from that show? Love that one!

    I bought it later on.  I remember being at the show.  Posters weren't as big in '98 as they are now.   I had bought one at the Missoula show.   We dipped into Montana because we weren't sure if we would make it back to BC on our cross canada road trip.    When I was looking at the Vancouver poster I thought it was a little small (in comparison) and opted not to buy one.

    Then years later a 10c'er was selling one in the forum, so I nabbed it.  So glad I did.  Those '98 posers go for quite a bit these days :(

    Awesome! Glad you got one! I love the sideways orientation on that poster. I was a broke student in those days so I couldn’t attend the ‘98 or 2000 tours.

    How the heck can they say the two Vancouver shows are "sold out"? That's not even close to being true.
    2011: Vancouver
    2013: LA 1 & 2, Vancouver
    2018: Seattle 1 & 2
    2022: LA 1 & 2
    2024: Vancouver 1 & 2, Portland, Seattle 1 & 2

    They’re completely sold out- except for the numerous rows of premiums sitting around in the back of the lower bowl. 🤣🎟️

    Makes you wonder how many upper bowl seats for N2 haven’t even been released yet.

    Judging by the locations of the F2F resales, I’ll bet you that the majority of the upper bowl is actually full, which is actually an additional indignity that this system brings on, particularly given that the tickets were all the same price.

    When they went on sale, it looks like the upper bowl mostly/all got put on sale.  I think this is another thing TM does now.  Why sell your good tickets, and be stuck with your shitty tickets.   Block off the good ones, so it looks like there's only shitty ones left, sell them first, then work on selling the better ones.

    Many valid points are addressed in the above posts. Ride the early concert announcement enthusiasm, then dump a whole bunch of crappy tickets on the somewhat gullible masses. Now it wouldn’t be so bad if it were a 3 or 4 tier pricing system. I’m so glad I only put in for May 4 and landed a pair in Section 106 with my 403xxx membership and figured 2 shows in Vancouver there should be plenty of tickets around. I have no interest at all in those seated floor tickets.

    It’s crazy that there’s not a single non-resale ticket available for N2 upper bowl. Gullible masses indeed if they really did all sell.

    I’m not sure “gullible” is fair in this case. It’s perfectly reasonable to assume that all tickets would be made available at the same time - that was the way tickets were always sold (at least until recently), and they seem to still be sold this way for non-Verified Fan (remember that?) events.

    Remember the messaging during the VF signup - “we expect demand to be much higher than supply,” and then a whole bunch of people on this board didn’t even get a code to participate. So if you DID - and/or if you didn’t and the sale finally opened up for you, you jumped at the best tickets available. Heck, the most important thing is “being in the building” right?

    This isn’t about being easily fooled, it’s about being manipulated by a company in exactly the manner it intended. It’s dirty pool. And, whether we like it or not, Pearl Jam are (at minimum) complicit.

    I’ll add that for most TM events there is an option to upgrade tickets from what you have to other equivalent or more expensive seats. It costs $10 per ticket. It’s not widely advertised but I have done it before, including for Springsteen in November.

    However, I will bet you that this option is not available for people with 10C tickets because the presale was handled by Tickets Today, a different company (which of course is owned by Ticketmaster but why make things easier for people?).

    Has anyone who is trying to sell their seats tried this method?
