Perfect day too cause I started having symptons of a head cold last night and I still have it today. I feel like shit but gotta go work ACC tonight. Can't afford to take a sick day.

    I live in woodbridge, ontario which is just 20 minutes from toronto and it has still NOT arrived. What a joke !

    I bought a copy on the release date from the local music store. Great album !

    I understand international mail takes longer, but we are not crossing entire oceans to get to Canada. Does it always take such a long time? I ordered an album from the Rush site and I didn't take that long.

    The e-mail said 4-8 weeks to ship, so if anything it's two weeks early.

    Got mine as well in Ottawa.

    Pretty happy with the packaging, but the wait is just unacceptable. Of course just like with Avocado i bought one from a local vendor on release day...i couldnt imagine having to wait 3 extra weeks to hear new Pearl Jam!

    My issue is still shipping, I wanted to buy the vinyl, cd, and single, and there was no way I was paying for individual shipping PLUS the wait. It's an issue I've had since the very beginning, I used to get responses from tenclub saying they were "working on it", but that was ten years ago.

    It's our choice to buy it or not. I opted to buy from Easy Street, they combined the shipping and I got it 2 days after the sale date, with the little extras that they always provide. It was that or buy it locally, but I thought they had a fair deal for all 3 items that I wanted.

    I love this band, love the tenclub, I probably spend way more than I should on them, but I just think it sucks that buying from their fanclub is sometimes unreasonable and inconsistent with the service that other fans get. I've come to accept the fact that they probably just don't have the resources to deal with it, it's nothing personal, but if I can get a better deal somewhere else, I'm going to have to go for it.
