***IMPORTANT DRAWING ENTRY FORM INFO***
- When drawing names, we will be verifying eligible members using your Ten Club email address.  When filling out the PayPal form be sure to enter that email address associated with your Ten Club account, otherwise your entry will not be valid.
- If selected, for one or both shows, your card will be charged and you will be expected to attend the show(s). No Cancellations, Exchanges, or Name Transfers. Please do not enter for a show you are not certain you are able to attend.
-DO NOT use the "Bill Me Later" option at PayPal checkout.  Those using this payment method will be eliminated from the drawing.
- You are required to enter a billing name and address.  Tickets are not mailed in advance; this is only for billing purposes.  As always, the tickets will be under the fan club member’s name, not the credit card holders name.  
-For members with pre-existing PayPal accounts.  The email address associated with your PayPal account must match the email address associated with your Ten Club account, otherwise your entry will be eliminated. If those email addresses currently do not match, either check out as a guest or change your PayPal associated email address to the email address in your Ten Club account before submitting your order. 
- Updating your PayPal email address to your Ten Club email address after you’ve already entered the drawing will not make you eligible as the change will have taken place after PayPal has already submitted your entry to Ten Club.
-When entering the drawing you are only AUTHORIZING your card.  An authorization is a temporary freeze of funds.  It is not an actual charge.  If your name is selected in the drawing the authorization will become an actual charge.  However if your name is not selected, we will cancel the authorization releasing the funds back to your card.
