    for a band that has punk roots routes and worships some of the legendary punk bands, they sure as fuck don't follow them. you'd never see the ramones or fugazi or social d or bad religion raise their fanclub membership fees.



    I don't blame the band members on this..I bet money none of the band members even know about this membership change..

    I think the president of the fan club can pretty much do what he wants...So, I am probably thinking the band members know nothing about this new membership options...

    One of the possibly surprises you may get is not receiving a fan club and the t-shirt...I hope they keep to their word this time.

    Keep your extra stuff..

    I will take the cheaper option and cheer about my pre sale rights...then I will be on ticket master because those tickets are out of stock in 2 seconds and a skeleton error message comes up

    I guess I will be less of a fan :roll:
    i post on the board of a band that doesn't exsist anymore .......i need my head examined.......

    No 10c shirts, only pearl Jam shirts and I'll be in 2012.

    Worst news this year so far... :mrgreen: No,...it really sucks. 50$ for the International Membership...I don't want to wear the fucking shirt anyway. Deep Mag...not worth the paper it's printed on. Shows in Europe are General Admission most of the time, so I have no business in buying the expensive 10C tix anyway. So the only deal is the Holiday Single and they know that!!!

    How is this splitting up the fan club members? How will anyone ever even know which membership you belong to when you are posting here or rocking out at shows? It's not like the analog folks get our own private bathrooms at the shows. Though, that's not a bad idea! :P

    As a teacher in Australia I have to pay a yearly fee of $75. That's to be part of the teaching institute. You have to be part of this there is no choice if you want to be registered. A few years ago when it started, and it was ONLY a few years ago it cost $50. What do I get from the
    institute? Sweet fuck all!!!! Being a ten club member is a choice. Don't like it? Don't join. At least you get something for it!

    I don't know why but I somehow continually manage to be shocked at the response of apologists around here. They are charging you MORE money. How is that a good thing? How about they send us our freaking holiday single around the holidays before charging us more for it? I would gladly pay the extra money if it meant better communication but we all know they will never do that. Green disease up in here! ;)

    I don't care, I will pay it!!!! :D

    me too!! ;)
    Analog for me of course

    So...... if I want to continue receiving the holiday single, I need to pay an extra $25 (international)? Ok... so I get a T-shirt too. Hmmmmmm.....

    Kinda scary that a teacher is going to make such a flawed comparison. Will the 10C membership allow you to earn a living? Regardless of there being a choice or not, your institute fee is an investment that enables you to remain employed. Without that, you wouldn't have the money to piss away on a 45 and a t-shirt.

    Glad ive been teaching for a little longer than you and dont have to be in the institute. Now that is a rort. Pearl jam has always been and is still much cheaper than all the other fan clubs that im a part of.
  • No way will I pay the extra money for what I'm already getting... or shall I say evetually getting. Maybe this wouldn't be so appalling if 10C's track record wasn't shit. As it stands, they're asking more money for things that they have proven year-in year-out to struggle to deliver. If one wants to pay even more for such a poor service that's your right, but don't try to tell me how a t-shirt makes it better. I'm an adult, I don't need every product issued by a rock band to feel special. I'm quite happy to have control over what I purchase and I value getting some kind of value for my money. If others don't that's their right, but I'm quite happy to not be included in that group.

    So I'll pony up for the digital, but I guess just to hold onto my number and get in on the 10C sales and such. Not for much reason beyond that. This this is the first time I've posted here in months and I'm never on the site. And let's face it, in print or PDF Deep Magazine is a load of fluff that could be better contrusted by fans in the first place. Plus, regardless of how much 10C charges for membership, it's not gonna make PJ the band it used to be, either musically or ethically so fuck it, I can only care so much. I get to see one of the hardest working musicians around in Mark Lanegan all the time. He's affordable, plays small venues and is fucking amazing.

    I guess those upcoming holiday vinyl singles just got a hell of a lot more rare...maybe. OTOH, I wonder if potentially fewer copies printed means it'll actually come in March or April.

    $20 gets you the same old, same old. $20 MORE gets you:
    Free Bootleg Download – Coupon code included in the renewal confirmation email
    Limited Edition Vinyl 45 Holiday Single
    Limited Edition Hard Copy of Deep Magazine
    Limited Edition Ten Club T-Shirt – New Design Each Year sent at the Time of Renewal Purchase!


    On a sidenote, the t-shirt might be worth close to $20 alone.


    And notice that Pearl Jam...the fans of vinyl...want you to UPGRADE to analogy. Spin The Black Circle!

    What bootlegs are the question.


    It says they'll send you a coupon code so I'm assuming its the bootlegs available in Goods. Applying the code at checkout will make it free.


    I got the code with my membership renewal tonight..
    I sent 10c an email this morning with a few questions and
    received a reply in like about 5mins

    Its the same with most professions, the teachers institute just needs to be a little more organised, but this is a different topic for a completely different website. I also just renewed as im interested in getting the 10c shirt. I love my metclub shirts and this will be something similar. Just wish the 10c would copy the idea of metallica's meet and greets, as i won one for the australian tour and that was an awesome experience that could only be better by meeting pearl jam.

    Well the 2010 Metclub gives me sleepless nights... sleeping in a glowing teeshirt isnt good...
    good to see when I just renewed there was a good size range in tees. Ladies and guys sizes
    I just ordered the same size as I normally do from the 10c so fingers crossed..pity
    we cant see what the tee is like..I wonder if it will arrive in 4-6 weeks..
    Yes it would be awesome if they did meet and greets for the everyday fan..
    I know ppl do get to meet PJ but they normally have special circumstances hey?


    p.s for my extra bucks I want to be able to embed 4 quotes drives me nuts how that comes up all the time
    and I bet I deleted the wrong quotes..gggggg

    I've been a member for a few years and other then the Deep magazines and the annual singles that they send out very late, I haven't been part of any of these "contests" or imaginary "freebee's" that they send out from time to time. To pay a whole lot more for a t-shirt doesn't really seem to justify such a price jump.


    This may be a needed revamp of the 10c ..
    perhaps 2011 will see some cool stuff for fans :)
  • 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
    There's a recession... even house prices are going down! Everything's going to go down because people have NO money! 10c is now gonna become elitist... nice to see PJ standing up for all they believe in.

    What I don't get is why is everyone complaining?

    1) If you don't like it then too bad, but stop talking about how much you hate it. With every decision that the Ten Club makes there are going to be good and bad points. If you really love PJ then you are going to spend that extra money to get everything. If your not a huge fan they you are going to stick with the basic plan. Now I know that you can't get everything like before but that is just how it goes. IMO PJ is the best band ever and I think the extra 20 bucks is worth it, so I'm going to get the Analog plan.

    2) Some people say that most people are just a member so they can get the good seats. I don't think this is true. I'm a member because I enjoy PJ, I would love to get good seats but most importantly, I love this community!!! Everybody here is so nice and caring, I am proud to be a member! I

    3) It is almost the New Year, so I just want to wish every single person on here a happy new year! Don't let this ruin your day, look on the bright side and get on with your day! :D

    Rico
    1. Ah so we should just sit back and take it and shut up? Nope, 10c is a business... we've been paying for a service that's been pretty shit and now they just go and give us less for our money? I really love PJ but I'm not gonna spend all my money to get everything... I have a life! I have a wedding to save for! After that maybe kids, who knows? But a band are not my priority anymore.

    2. I am ONLY a member for the seats... even though I've never actually got to use it for that reason.

    3. This won't ruin my day :mrgreen: but it leave a bitter taste for all the corporate bullshit. PJ really can't claim to have any moral high ground over anybody anymore... it's all hypocritical now!
