** TEN CLUB ANALOG AND DIGITAL MEMBERSHIPS **

Yikes... there's no way to spin this really unless they actually beef up the digitial downloads. I mean, if for $20 more you get a shirt and some really cool (and previously unavailable) concert material I can't argue too much about it.

But if this is going to the standard TC operation of promising things in the future then just forget it was ever offered and then when we ask about it we are either ignored or told to be patient... that would suck.

I'm prepared to pay the extra 20 bucks but I hope it gives me double the say - I've been begging for them to re-release the WMA t shirt forever!

I have friends that live outside the U.S.A...This is going to be costly for them..If they want to do premium international membership?...

If this free t-shirt is the same quality as the 10c sales now...Well, that shirt won't even be worth $20....Because, it will be paper thin and won't last long at all...

ive got to say i think this idea rocks...ive said before they should do this ..jake white does it in the vault.two level membership..

and thats alot higher then what 10c are asking...


great idea....and how have the prices going up...pay the $20 level then and you get the same stuff less a 7"...

but how long has membership been at $20, a few years...everything goes up..

if it was $100 a year i would pay it ...

great idea pearl jam /10c..thank you

I think they should have just left it alone.

Is any of this money going towards to the server at the 10c for ticket sales?...I doubt it...Just wait until the next pearl jam tour..I can see the tix prices at least going up $15 to more...

You also lose the hard copies of the newsletters... which should be two a year but I dont think always wind up being on schedule for 2/year. Might not seem like a lot, but basically you lose a lot without getting any savings.

I think they shouldve raised it $5 or whatever for the same and then created a 2nd tier with more stuff like vault downloads, etc that could have really created a lot of value without the TC having to really spend much more $$ to provide it.

Can we analog people at least get the shirt in our size? The international membership has doubled in price and all that's changed is this free t-shirt. It wouldn't hurt so bad if it was something each member could wear right. :shock:

Ohhhh good point! I'm 5'1. I need small shirts.

I just checked and the shirts are available for Men S-XXXL and Women S-XXL.

Would be nice to know the measurements of the sizes, but I will wait until i have to renew to find that info out.

Happy New Year, Susan!

yeah you get to select your tshirt size at the time you buy the membership... it's up in the goods section. ok, it's 1 jan here, but it's not in america... so... a wee bit shady. i think this idea is very shifty and $50US is rather expensive for the wee kiwi dollar but what can you do? i'm not giving up my 45 every year.

Even though my membership was up at the end of 2011, I just added another year of analog. They do ask for shirt size at the time you order. Got my conformation email with the download coupon pretty much within 2 minutes. Now the question is what show should I download?

Wow, greetings from the Ten club!

I will pay the same 20$ and:
- I won't get the hard-copy holiday single anymore :x
- I won't get the paper-Deep.

Nice... way to go 10C :(
Oh, and happy 2011 to you too :P

So at least for now the free download is one of the existing shows? Bleh... who doesn't have the shows they want that are available from the group willing to shell out another $20/year for a few goodies?

this is incredibly shady. it's bad enough to announce this on december 31st and give less than a day til the change takes effect but then i go on now to renew BEFORE january 1st when this change is supposedly taking place and it's already my only option. not cool 10 club. not cool.
