I think we (10C members) should get the new release a week earlier or else something extra to make us buy from 10C. I mean the new album is just around the corner from me but Im not buying a second copy.

Times like this, all you can do is laugh :?

Second that! Still waiting for my copy.

Im a pjam fanatic and still don't have the new album in hand.

10C should've sent the international orders sooner and should also review their shipping costs.

Think I'll just buy locally from now on.

End of rant!

I'm glad you brought this up - we had no idea that 10C members weren't getting their albums in the mail and weren't aware that it is HIGHLY unfair that members of the general public get to hear the album before the fan club members. I'm glad SOMEONE finally started a post about this . . .

* end of highly sarcastic rant *

Well done! :roll:

Will pop into HMV tomorrow and see if mine have it...... Heard the album at a listening party.. would like to have it in my greedy lil' hands! Just like I would like to have the 10C backspacer in my greedy lil' hands!

Thierry Henry

A mate in hmv told me they usually get new releases on the friday and most of the time they put them on the shelf straight away. So he had Backspacer onsale last friday.
I had already ordered the cd & vinyl from 10C so couldn't go in and buy a third copy.

1 more listen to backspacer then back to AIC.

CD Plus Store's here, SUCK! It's only a place to find used goods. I would never shop there for new items. There were a few 'new' items they had on the racks. I would come up & ask to make the purchase. They would look under the table for the item number, and pass me the CD from the sleeve. Open case etc.. That's not new. Once the CD plastic case is open, and you have the silver CD in a sleeve .. underneath the table, it's not new at all. They said it is. That's how they keep it. I don't think so. For used stuff, that's the place to go. If I wanted to buy something new for my self or a friend, I don't shop there. The one's in Halifax & Dartmouth used to be called Urban Sound Exchange. It used to be a great place. Until CD Plus came into the picture.

As for Taz records, I haven't seen any Pearl Jam vinyl in year's. I used to go there all the time when I went to Saint Mary's Universay @ lunch & even after classess. Mostly for those Pearl Jam Unofficial Bootlegs. I bought dozens & dozens of CD's & VHS' bootleg tapes from those guy's. For Pearl Jam vinyl, I haven't seen any in their store for year's. They did have a Even Flow Australia single (used) selling for 100 bucks once.

Both stores will tell you they will have it, order it for you and jack up the price. You won't find it any cheaper then 10club or Easy Street. Trust me. I've been shopping Pearl Jam since '91 here. Online shopping is the cheapest way to get Pearl Jam goods here into Nova Scotia.

wow dude, im thinking you dont visit cd plus barrington very much. they have one of the better new sealed vinyl selections in hali. taz always get pj when they do new releases, and select sounds always has pj in stock. i dont buy many new cd's from cd plus but i have in the past and they where sealed, only when i picked something up from the used section was it not sealed. you had to have been buying a used disc, they wouldnt open it first.

i guess the verdict is your just not fast enough :P , i have bought most of my pearl jam/vinyl collection right here in the city, other then the last two releases, most have come from one of those three stores. shit i bought my vitalogy vinyl right from hmv on spring garden back in 94 when it came out. im always dt though so i pop into both stores quite often, cool peeps to chat with except the one older fella at taz, man he will talk you into next year if you let him

ive been buying pj in hali since 91 also, and vinyl since 94, guess ive just had better luck.

support local business!

haven't visited cdplus stores since i graduated from universary. i used to during high school aka under urban sound exchange. the one on barrington wasn't really the place for pearl jam. though they did have dozen's of used vitalogy cd's galore. i really didn't care about that place. way to much used stuff.

if you remembered sam the record man on barrington, that was my place of pearl jam, place of zen. i bought the majority of the '00 & '03 offical bootlegs there, and all the cd's & various vinyl from them, all new for year's! i loved that place with a passion, and those deals. got like 2 shelves worth of dedicated pearl jam because of that place.

i kinda like that old guy from taz records. i could swear he was neil young's clone, just a very tired version. i used to shop there all the time when it was across the street of neptune theatre. when it moved to gottingen street, i didn't much care. they could order you those studio album's, but i could do that to online!

only if they come my way. I have a 3 year old daughter, and a new daughter 7 weeks old, so travelling for a rock show isn't really in the cards for us at the moment. I have been given the green light by the wife to travel next summer, so hopefully they are still touring then!

Thierry Henry

So thats why you're quick to fly off the handle!! ha ha
Just kidding.

New AIC album is cool. God knows how many times I listened to Backspacer.

Is Vancoover (spelling??) not on the way to winnipeg?
