PEARL JAM TO INTRODUCE NEW TICKET DRAWING SYSTEM
This was e-mailed to all Ten Club members yesterday. Maybe I’ll finally get to sit up close unlike when I saw Pearl Jam in 2006 and 2009:
To kick off the New Year, Ten Club would like to introduce you all to our improved fan club ticket drawing system. We are excited about this new website feature and would like to invite all members active as of Sunday, January 6th to login and test it.
For your convenience you have one full week from today to participate in this test. The drawing entry period opens today, Jan 7th and closes Mon, Jan 14 at 10am pacific.
For this test, we created two faux tours to mimic how a Pearl Jam or Eddie Vedder ticket drawing would normally run. Just like a real fan club ticket drawing you will be asked to enter your credit card info in the billing section. Your card will only be authorized $1 for each of the shows you enter; however it will not be charged. The ticket test ends on January 14th at 10am Pacific. After that time your credit card authorization will be canceled and the held funds will be released back.
At the bottom of this email you will find step-by-step written instructions on how to take part in the new ticket system test, as well as a link to a “How To…” video. And there’s more…
New ticket drawing features include:
- Ticket drawing runs directly on the PearlJam.com site.
- Ability to enter the drawing for shows in priority order (1st choice, 2nd choice, 3rd choice etc.)
- “My Tickets” page where you can view the status of your drawing entry at any point during or after the drawing.
- Ability to cancel or edit your drawing entries before the deadline.
Win Some Rare Merch!
To make this fun, we have included some rare hard-to-find merchandise items that will be given away during the test drawing. Once the drawing entry period has ended, the new ticket system will randomly draw one name for each of the 8 shows entered. Of those 8 winners, each will receive one of the merchandise items listed below assigned at random.
Mad Season re-issue 10” on purple vinyl (1 winner)
PJ20 12” on colored vinyl (2 winners)
Patagonia Refugio Backpack (2 winners)
Benaroya Hall Box set (2 winners)
Backspacer 12” on white vinyl (1 winner)
How to enter the drawing step-by-step:
We even made an instructional video!
Step 2. Click “My Account” at the top of the screen. On the drop down click “Ten Club Tickets”.
Step 3. Read all the information on this page including the drawing rules for each tour, and then select a tour you would like to attend.
Step 4. Click “Choose This Show” for each show you would like to attend in order of priority then click “Continue”.
Step 5. Review your drawing entry selections and edit if necessary.
Step 6. Fill in the billing information and click “Submit My Entry”. You will be immediately directed to a page confirming receipt of your entry. You will receive an email confirming your drawing entries and you can also view your entries on the “My Tickets” page.
Step 7: You are all done. On Monday, January 14th at 10am Pacific the ticket drawing will close. Once names have been drawn the “My Tickets” page will be updated to show which shows your name has been drawn for. Also, you will receive an email confirming that info along with a feedback form. Please be sure to fill this out and let your voice be heard!
Note:
- To go back and enter for a second tour click “Upcoming Shows”.
- Review your entry at any time by Clicking on “My Tickets”.
- Cancel your drawing entries on the “My Tickets” page by simply clicking “Cancel”. An email will be sent to you confirming this cancelation and release of funds back to your card.

Wow this is really cool
I gave up on Ten Club after being a member for 12 years and being promised “seated” pre-sale tickets only to find that out of the entire tour that year (I’ve blocked out the year, probably 2006 that the venue they selected (The Fillmore in SF) is (of course, should have been obvious) NOT a seated venue but only General Admission. I just wait for the YouTube coverage now.
eddie is god!
pj is fucking awesome
As long as the PJ site doesn’t crash, this will turn out to be a great great thing.
It’s basically just a digital version of what they did with the index cards back in 2000.
Way to go, PJ.
What could be more impressive : getting concert tickets down to $15 or making some fancy shmancy way of electronically getting your information, preferences and most importantly capturing your credit card details? Duh!
I quit the Ten Club two years ago after letting it frustrate me for 11 years. My tickets never seemed to improve, and there were a couple times I got screwed with pre-sale issues. I’m a fan of a lot of bands, including PJ, but rarely did I feel this was worth the annual fee (I think it was up to $40/yr when I stopped renewing).
They should introduce a new band cause this lineup has been mailing in their performances for the last 5 years…
EV is a clown!!
