    So is the Ten Club version of the CD any different to the store bought version?? It better be!

    What is the point ordering through 10 club if it's the same as the store bought version and I get it weeks later??

    No, it's exactly the same... you just got a download of another MYM video that is like the Sirens video. The download is in your order history.... and now online for everyone to watch. So in other words, there was no point in orderinga CD from 10c (unless there are some random special copies out there?? A few people received red vinyl as a surprise, but I haven't seen anything about random surprises with the CD).
    With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata

    I was assuming it would be like my 10 club edition Avocado CD. Nicer packaging than the store bought version with a bonus CD thrown in. And I'm in Australia so who knows when it will arrive. And I don't have any downloads of videos in my Order History. I guess that is just for Analog members. Not happy 10 Club!!

    You know what they say about assumptions...
    For me, I ordered because the price was the same or cheaper, I knew it would come late but it came with a download so didn't really matter, plus it had a "bonus".

    FYI, the video is in the digital download package. If you ordered the CD or the vinyl you should have a link for "Lightnight Bolt 10C" in a bunch of formats. In each of these is the video mentioned as well as the album tracks. Get happy.

    Ok so I checked my LB download folder and there is the MYM video. I just thought it would be nice if the packaging of the 10 club CD was different than the ones in the shops so I could feel special. Oh well.

    Still waiting on my CD here in the UK. According to the 10C shipping confirmation email, the carrier is: Mail Innovations.
    Didn't know who that was until I googled... ("efficient and effeftive", my ass!)

    Entered my tracking number, and got this: "Projected Delivery Date: No Date Available"

    This is the last time I am going to be sucked in by a 10 pre-sale of anything. Pffft.

    i am in Poland and still nothing here, either.
    every time 10c is throwing some cool contests for the US citizens only makes me wanna scream, but this pre-order shame is way beyond even that. very annoying. and sad.

    Gee we get ripped off here in Australia.
    Paid $22 for my copy.
    Here in Mexico we also paid $22 for a copy manufactured here, not even imported, that one costs over $27.

    Same here - 10C club offers no excuses, the band doesn't mention it and no CD yet.

    Really disgraceful way of treating the fans 10C! :nono:
  • Due to the fact that "Ligtning Bolt" has been announced as the NO.#1 album in America in its first week, The Beloved "Getaway" may be the most important song in America. The first track off of the new album has yet to be played live. Who will be the first city to be blessed with hearing/seeing "Getaway" live?

    I haven't been on here in ages but here's my opinion. I thought we were going to end up with a very ordinary album, as I didn't think the last one was that great but I just love this album.
  • Still nothing in the U.K. This is disgraceful 10c!!!

    Pfff...
    Also in the Netherlands I'm already waiting for ages to receive LB on CD.
    Within a month I should renew my 10C membership, but I seriously doubt that that is going to happen :?

    Luckily I've got the digital download, so at least I can listen day and night to another superb piece of music! :D
  • Finally got my vinyl last night! Haven't played it yet to see if I was one of the lucky ones to receive one of the damaged vinyls yet but I'm really hoping I'm not. It took long enough to get it the first time.

    still no CD in Australia and it was released here in the shops on the 11th!!! Why bother saying they can promise delivery to match the release date if they can't - I checked prior to ordering to see if there was some comment about international orders perhaps being later etc., but there wasn't. If the record stores can get it to sell on the 11th I figured they could get it to the rest of us around then too. TWO weeks later - still no CD. It could have been sent by general postal service and it would have gotten here by now.
