    When I got the rejection, my wife could tell that I was upset.  I wanted to take my daughters to the Pittsburgh shows (we live in Pittsburgh).  She said that I don't have to clean the bathroom tonight. :)

    Something feels off.  There were people that went 0 for last tour but some of those were people not signing up correctly, credit card issues, etc.  Some truly did get shut out but this already feels like a lot more.
    I agree, I got both Vancouver shows GA and 1 MSG seated show. However, I see  that it’s small leg that got released in 2025 vs 35-37 shows they did 2024 and they released all those dates, people had more options. Opposed to 30k people trying for 10 shows and one of them being a small venue. 

    However, a lot can happen between January and April where things can change.

    Hugs from a fellow loser here too!  0-2 for Pittsburgh, the only shows I tried for.  Had a nice streak going, both Seattle shows and both St. Paul shows. I didn't think about signing up for the Friday sale.  Lesson learned for future legs. I'll be traveling day of the sale anyway so I won't be able to watch the screen like a hawk.

    Once again, I did not get chosen for ten club tickets. I have not "won" tickets since Tenclub went to this lottery system.  Not once.

    It's a bit hurtful when I can't get tickets and yet there are some people who won 4,5,6, or even 7 shows. How is that fair?

    Anyway, I guess being part of the Tenclub for a long time (28 years?) is actually a disadvantage now.

    0/2 here. Happy to find my people!

    I have no inside knowledge of how this process works but I love to recklessly speculate about things :)  My guess is that they are only doing the lottery once from all entries, then ordering them 1 through whatever, let's say 25000. Then they walk through show by show. For Florida Night 1, they start at #1 and work their way down until all tickets are allotted. Then then go to Florida Night #2 and start at the same #1 entry again and work their way back down. That would make the most sense as to why the distribution is way more 7/8 and 0/8 and why we don't seem to see many 4/8. 

    Anyway, that's life. On to the Artist Presale!! :)
    Based on all the information we have, this is overwhelmingly likely to be the way they do it, IMO.

    its a huge change from the previous days of the lotto ie. independent draws for each show ticket type w priority rankings.

    Hollywood, Raleigh and Pitts lol


    Accounts have to be blacklisted for this to happen. 
    That is bullshit. Especially seeing people go 10-10. I’m sure you’ll get in. I’ll definitely look out for you, you’ve helped so many people get tickets over the years. 
    Yeah, help this man and his wife out, if anyone can.

    Like nicknyr15 said: They've helped out a lot of people score tickets.

    I can almost guarantee that I won’t get selected for the artist presale either.  Not that there will be anything worth it in that sale but because TM decided to block me earlier this year for no damn reason it’s going to hinder my account based on some things I’ve read regarding the algorithm.  So probably need to start a new account in the future.

    10C membership on an annual basis might need revisiting.  A T shirt and a very low probability of getting tickets first probably aren’t the best use of funds.  

    I’ve had to spend way too much time on F2F to get tickets to a couple of shows, meanwhile I see lots of people touting 4 out of 5 or 3 for 3 records each year.  There’s something off about it.  I get that no system is likely to satisfy all, but what we seem to have now is a system that satisfies a few…

    don't mean shit.
    Why do so many people who've been in the Ten Club for so long have no idea how this has worked for the entire time they've been in the Ten Club? These posts come up over and over again, often from people with five posts or fewer.
    LOL...Huge fans can't be upset?
    The point is not that they're upset. The point is that they somehow have missed the fact that seniority in the Ten Club has never been a factor in whether you get tickets in the lottery.
    I gather speed from you fucking with me.

    There isn’t a code for the presale. I entered my info for the presale and when I went back to look at my selections it shows the dates I selected and underneath it says no code required.

    My wife and I saw Barry Manilow just this past summer. Tickets only cost us $8 each.

    Does that make me a loser?
    No id say your smart $8 is worth it and you get more $ for drinks and food! If you spend $200 for a ticket for MSG drinks cost above $20 in the building guess what your night at the PJ show cost close to $300 never mind the food 
    MSG
    $46 for 2 Coors Light
    That’s a robbery and I paid the same that night with a smile on my face and asked can I have some more 😂 screw that! That was my last show at the overrated greatest arena in the world 
    jesus greets me looks just like me ....

    Me and none of my friends ever got the Artist Presale after we entered.
    I think I read Ticketmaster holds back 70% of the tickets of desired artists, the greed is insane.

    You don't get a T-shirt anymore.
    Have to buy separately for additional $20 if you want it.

    They're just expressing frustration. It doesn't require a careful reading followed by a correction.

    Newsletter says it is "an expertly designed 10 club emblem". Makes me think one of the kids of one of the band members designed it.
