    If you check the bar codes on the duplicated tickets in your accounts they are the same, so two of each. Its just a gremlin

    Tons of unsold seat everywhere in Europe du Princig Policy.
    Event in Berlin (Have a look at eventeam.de, nothing is sold event at the cheapest rates)
    Poor atmosphere....

    The album isn't doing very well and tickets are ridiculously expensive - I imagine these are the reasons there are lots of unsold tickets.

    I officially give up with this now, I've now accepted they'll be playing to a pretty sparsely populated stadium.  I'm just going to enjoy my day regardless!
    i could really care less if the stadium is not sold out , im going to have a great time regardless.

    having a show cancelled in 2022 (Vienna) after covid was such a heartbreaking moment that im just happy to be there. they can play whatever they want, hell play last kiss as far as im concerned
    I'm totally with you! Having Vienna cancelled I just hope they show up and play in Berlin and that everyone there will give their all. I've also moaned about prices and 10c allocation in Berlin, but now I just hope we get a show.

    Have we heard anything about early access for 10C?  Im hoping these 'extra tickets' are something for 10C to scan to get us in early

    Start time for Barca event says 9pm on the tickets. What time are the band likely to be on stage?

    They do things later in Spain, maybe it’s due to those afternoon naps they like to take.

    Berlin, by contrast, is super-early. They moved it to 6:30 pm a few weeks ago

    London is also 6.30 pm (as there are two support acts)

    If the concert starts at 9 pm, Pearl Jam might be on stage around 10 pm after the support act. The concert will be over around half an hour after midnight. It will take at least another hour to get out of the venue and from the nearest stop to the airport. Let's say you would be at the airport around 2 am. If your flight leaves at 7 am and you have to be there an hour or two earlier, you don't need a hotel. You can also rest for a few hours at the airport for free.

    Thanks. My hotel is the nearest one to the arena so will hopefully still get a couple of hours sleep

    This company is doing everything it can to create artificial shortages. On the other hand, they are also only selling the lower tier. Eventim the remaining ones. And if you subtract all the resell tickets, there really aren't that many blue dots left.

    I would be happy if Eventim would sell a few more tickets. So that the upper tier is also full. But maybe it's just too late.

    The split between ticketmaster and eventim will also add to the reasons, why Berlin will see many empty seats. When you go to TM to look for Pearl Jam tickets and you think that they are too expensive, you have no idea that there are lots of "cheap" tickets waiting at eventim.

    Exactly. This was also not communicated at all in advance. Before the presale there was only talk of Ticketmaster. And only when people got their confirmation email for the official presale, I think it was written in small letters underneath. Something about alternatively also available at Eventim. I can still remember how many people only went to Ticketmaster and said that there were no more tickets available. At the same time, the entire second and third tiers were available at Eventim. And some of them still are.

    I think the reason for the split is that the band has an exclusive deal with TM for the European tour, but Waldbühne is owned by one of eventim's subsidiaries. So in order to play at Waldbühne they had to give eventim some tickets to sell.

    A bunch of first row tickets just got released in Manchester. Or did I miss these?

    Maybe but twickets also have tickets now for the london show also, cheaper than anything on ticketmaster. Its a bit of a shambles really
