So many pointless, duplicate threads and idiotic bitching and arguing. I get people are excited, but the barrage of fretting and frothing at the mouth is too much. Thank you for reading my bitch about people bitching post. Had to get it out. Carry on. Duuuuuuuuude... The non-stop whining about the tour dates and prices and process and lottery for 10C makes it clear that basic reading comprehension is severely lacking for a lot of folks there. njpunkmusic and lexicondevil 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jesse Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Haha - tons of bitching over there. HOWEVER, I am a bit sympathetic, as a fellow 10C member, that we are pretty much getting hosed on the membership. The shipping price snafu was ridiculous, as is the all-in cost for the exclusive 10C vinyl. Coming from a band that raged against this sort of price gouging in the 90s it is a little tough to swallow. I swallowed it, but I did feel like I was being taken advantage of/taken for granted. My membership number is high enough that I already know the two GA shows I put in for are going to dump me into the nosebleeds and I'll lose money trying to sell at least one of them on the fan2fan, while still paying them $30/year. I did it anyway to be optimistic, but I could feel their fingers in my pockets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teakay Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 They’re issuing refunds for the shipping price. I emailed them my order # and it was reduced by about $15. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jesse Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Yeah - I waited until the glitch was fixed, but with $13 shipping it still ran me over $60 for a single LP. I did it, but that's still a little crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhulud Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Uh...so I was checking my USPS tracking thing email I get everyday for incoming mail...and noticed that I am receiving a package from 10C today...went to my order history on my account and noticed that my Dark Matter order was marked shipped...but I did order the LP and the 7" single...so safe to assume that it's the 7" single that's being shipped out now?

chiefwahoo Posted February 20 Author Share Posted February 20 I also ordered them together but was also charged separate shipping for each as usual for Ten Club. I checked my account and it shows the 7" as shipped w/ tracking info but not the LP, of course. Mine was shipped via UPS and is showing it'll be delivered today. But it doesn't show up on my daily USPS e-mail, not that I'd expect it to. So anyway, yep, it'll just be the single. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
achillesstand7 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Yeah, I had ordered both together as well, and got the 7” in the mail a couple of days ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC1221 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Well 25 years of being in 10C and I'm done. Got shut out of all Philly and NYC dates. Just not worth it anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn...I am so sorry. I've been in 10C since '96 or so...and always got lucky with getting tix...at least for all FL shows they've done. This time around I figure to try out and late birthday gift myself to catch them in Chicago and Boston, and got lucky & got all 4 nights. Now I have to pay up or shut up.

lexicondevil Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 I was lucky enough to score P1 tickets to Golden 1. I hoped I would get them, but figured I'd find another way if I didn't. The people on 10c bitching over losing a fucking lottery is just pathetic. I told my wife that people were pissed on 10c, and she said, "Aren't they always pissed?"

Wow - that's nuts. I got P1 for the 2nd Fenway show. Anxiously awaiting to see exactly how far up they'll stick me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What’s been really upsetting me is how some people are super happy to have scored tix & it’s their first time to see PJ ever but then come the entitled crybabies raining on their parades. And your wife is spot-on making that point. It’s always the negativity & whining that are louder than the positivity & happiness. lexicondevil 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicondevil Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 I understand being upset. I feel empathy for those who didn't "win". I would have been bummed if I didn't get lucky, but I just would have found a different way to get tickets. I am grateful. I am also really excited about what the new album might sound like.

jhulud Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 If Dark Matter (song) is any indication, I’m hopeful that the record will be back to some rockin’ groove basics for the band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC1221 Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 I'm bummed but I can go to my grave seeing the absolute best PJ show and setlist I could have ever dreamt. Nothing will or could ever top it. https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/pearl-jam/2005/wachovia-center-philadelphia-pa-3d6a9c7.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad Heart Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Wow. Tried to get tickets and was just nosebleeds for $200. Anything decent was $600+. Geez. njpunkmusic 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bgdesign Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Ticket prices were worse than the album price. Over $900 a seat is crazy and that's face value. njpunkmusic 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad Heart Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Supposedly closer to the show date a lot of seats will be “normal” price and not PJ Premium tickets. I have no idea what premium tickets means other than they’re expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So same thing, just different name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People have reported this being a good strategy. Little stressful, especially if booking a hotel and traveling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
