    Mind you, I still think that local Chicagoans should get first dibs. I will cover both tix and buy the generous owner beers all night at the show. . .

    I had to work and left my husband and son home to get tickets today! The helplessness I experienced as the minutes ticked by after 1pm with no phone call....I live about 20 minutes from Chicago! This is my FUCKIN' DREAM to see my favorite band play the tiny Vic! I've got Sunday Lollapalooza but I've been to the other Lolla's and I'm too old to fight the CRAZIES and wait in the July Heat all day to get up front!
    I'm SERIOUS! i want a ticket to this show and if anybody can help out please email me!
    lmason2926@aol.com!
    I need something good to happen to me this week! Please come through!

    The tix didn't even show 'til about 20 after, and by then they already said temporarily unavailable. Still continued to refresh for a couple hours. Got the buy button about a dozen times, but every time I clicked it, the next screen would say temp. unavail. again.
    Damn, damn, damn!
    Well at least I know there's no more I could've done. I tried. No asking "what if?". It wasn't my fault. Damn how I tried. I guess it just wasn't meant to be. I'll survive. Somehow.

    Thanks to PJ and 10C for all your hard work and for even giving us this chance to begin with. The system isn't perfect, but I guess that's just life. You guys are awesome!
    To everyone to managed to get tix - DAMN YOU! :) Seriously, have fun. You guys all better make the most of it. And when you're there, scream once for me.

    Sold out in two minutes. A great testament to Pearl Jam fans. I am so bummed I can't tell you. I was high as a kite at the prospect of being in such an intimate venue. I teach college and had to leave my class working on a group activity to go next door to my office to login to try to buy tickets and the ten minutes that it took to finally get to Chicago Tix icon with all the traffic on the site and realize that I was NOT going to be lucky enough to get tickets sent me into a deep depression this afternoon. I kept getting timeout error messages trying to click on Tickets under Goods. I was more majorly bummed when I looked online to see that by 2:40 someone was scalping their tickets for $700 each. They should have their 10C membership stripped. I'm on the "waiting list" to get a pair of tickets if someone has a lobotomy and gives up their prized possession. Oh, well, it wasn't in the cards apparently. How many of you on here are lucky enough to have gotten tickets? Go ahead, rub it in. How many of you experienced the same "technical difficulties" apparently due to the traffic on the pearljam.com site? Take care and thanks to 10C for making this type of fans only event possible. I just wish it had been my lucky day.

    Does 10c ever contact eBay and report that it is an illegal ale? On Ebay you couldn't sell for more than $2 above face (at least it used to be that way, which sucked too, since that didn't include charges)

    Or do they get the email adress of the seller? In this case the seller is a Ticket shop - how do they get away with it - they should be easy to find.
    Buckeye tix.
    We should all send them hate mail at the very least. No, No, that's probably illegal too - seriously, under some Postal laws.


    e-bay dont care unfortunately as they make too much money from it.. we could buy it and say will pay on the day and report him to 10C after??? or we could just put ridiculous bids on and then retract at the end..

    I am offering my Washington, D.C. poster from the 5-30-06 show, a meal, a free night in my Chicago hotel over Lolla weekend, and my soul to anyone who wants to give or sell me a ticket to the Vic show.
    I am lost, I'm no guide, but I'm by your side.
    I am right by your side.
