I would say that is not 100% the case, but it is worth an email
They hooked me up with a ticket to the sold out Willie show when I asked
so I'd shoot them and email and ask (friends@930.com)

FAQ

  Can I get points for volunteering with other organizations, aside from your partner charities?
    Currently, we?re partnering with these three initial organizations. We would look to expand our program as it grows, including more organizations and more opportunities to volunteer.
    Can I get points for hours I volunteered prior to the launch of this?
    Points are only available for volunteering that takes place beginning December 1, 2015.
    Do I have to volunteer a minimum number of hours in order to get points?
    Not at all! If you only have a few hours to spare, that?s ok too. You?ll receive points based on number of hours.
    Will the program only run during the holidays?
    Good question! While the needs or organizations increase during the holidays, volunteers are something they need all of the time so we plan to have this program continue year round.
    I have more questions.
    Email us at friends@930.com. We?ll do our best to help you out.

Ticketmaster gives away free tickets and everybody gets pissed.

Seth makes people work for them and everybody hugs the guy.

I don't get this board.

TM had to give away tickets, and did a piss-poor job of it.

seth volunteers to give away tickets to reward loyalty… guess what?  people are loyal to him.

smackie volunteers some poor analysis, then wonders why he can't figure out this board (or, presumably, how anything works based on his predilection for asking why apples and oranges aren't  the same…)

I assumed he was joking…

I'm getting a free ticket to see one of my favorite bands ever at the best club in the nation…. hard to compare that with seeing a show from the lawn of Nissan!
