    NEVER...I've held onto 141xxx for a while...although at some point, I used to be 137xxx and there was some kind of restructurinig...I'm happy I'm still where I'm at...after years of being broke & stoned in college I'm happy I made it with my # intact :oops:
    I met my wife here...you can too! Don't lose hope!

    NEVER. I've always renewed with weeks to spare and I'm thankful that 10C now sends out renewal notices.

    Don't remember what year I joined but it was the early 90s. In 2006 I renewed as usual and a glitch in the cart gave me a new number!!! :o I was on pins and needles waiting months while 10C worked to resolve the issue, simultaneously panic stricken waiting for the Hawaii show on sale dates to be announced. Nearly had a nervous breakdown but kept my 70xxx!!

    Peace,

    Geez i have a hard enough time dealing with the fact that i didn't join in 92/93 when i was already a huge fan of the band...i don't know how id deal with forgetting to renew my 10C membership. I've had the same number since 2002 i believe, just wish i had gotten on the ball sooner.

    I went from 154xxx to 4xxxxx. Oh well. There are worse things in life than losing ten club seniority. To be honest, I only got good seats with the low number in Nashville. 4th row in front of Mike two times. Other than that, I really never was close to the stage with 10 club tickets. I just like going to the shows. I'd rather be in the lawn than 25 rows back.

    I let mine lapse back in '01 only because I was deployed overseas and (obviously) had a ton of other stuff on my mind at that point. I loved that number though. I think it was like 184***.

    i joined in 96, let it lapse in the early 2000s for a year or so when pj announced a down under tour and left NZ out and went to Japan and then rubbed salt in the wound by mocking us... the membership fee was a lot of money for a student. Then I got a proper job and re-newed but they let me keep my number.

    I joined in the early 90's - whatever year they sent out "Angel" as the Christmas single.

    Let it lapse after that until a few years back. 04 or 05 I guess. I'm in the 300's now. If I think about it I realize my seats would be better had I kept it up and that bugs me, but the biggest reason I keep it up now is just to get access to the presale. Anything after that is gravy. No idea what my original number was.
    I suggest you step out on your porch...run away my son...see it all...oh see the world...

    I joined originally in 1994 but let it lapse because I was too young to go to concerts at that time and didn't really think about it. ***kicking myself now*** Renewed somewhere around 2000 and am at 203XXX. I don't remember my original number either and am very glad for that! Oh well, it gets me in the building, right?!!!

    Never! I believe I've had my 148XXX since around 96. Something like that. I did procrastinate joining for about a year and a half -- I think they should retro my membership # a year or two due to my inability to meet deadlines and get things done. It can't be my fault.

    Joined in 2002, lapsed in 2005, maybe?- rejoined this year. There should be a "lifer" option. For instance, Rolling Stone mag would let you pay one lump fee for magazine service for life and would check in on you every couple of years to make sure you were still around. :) Couldn't 10c do the same?

    originally joined in '96, but was only 15 at the time, so it wasnt easy for me to send in a check back then, I must've let it lapse around '99... Re-upped in '05 or '06 and have a 337xxx number now.

    I joined in 98' after the MSG II 9/11/98 show. My # 183xxx. But im a little confused. A buddy of mine joined way after me and had let it expire then he re-joined and got a lower # then mine. Like 106xxx. so i really dont know how all this 10c #'s work. We shall find out 10/31 in philly. If he gets better seats and its not from the lottery i'll be pissed.

    I think we should be able to buy retired low numbers. 8-)

    If 10C member numbers were transferable, I wonder what a 5 digit number would fetch on ebay?!?! I would guess somewhere over $500.00

    Originally joined in '93. Got x-mas singles 2-4 then let it lapse until 2005. So I'm a 400 just like you.

    That's exactly what I did. One of my poorer decisions.

    Hi all-
    I used to be a board denizen back in the day, but I sorta let it get away from me. Quite a few times actually. I think my 10C has lapsed about four or five times now. Just too much going on in the world, I guess. Have had some great times, but the PJ always brings ya back, right?

    Hope I'm not the only one! Who else is 400 and proud (albeit slightly ashamed)?

    I feel like I'd be up on stage now if I hadn't lapsed so many times. :lol:

    I jumped in in 94, and only let it lapse once.............. till 06!! Man, do I regret that.

    there are actually 3-digit numbers still kicking around if you can believe it,...
