    While I am very happy for anyone receiving exactly the vinyl they were wishing for, I wonder about the legality. I can't remember if the sale was billed as a lottery or the word random was used (I can't find the full announcement anymore), but if it wasn't truly a 'mystery' package but instead a chance to get incredibly loyal fans the thing they want most, is that really the way it should work? Is it legal? I did not participate as I had to work.


    Here's what the April Newsletter said:
    We are happy to offer Current Ten Club Members the opportunity to purchase a 2015 Record Store Day Ten Club Mystery Vinyl Package. This sale will start on Saturday, April 18 at 10am Eastern.

    Each package, limited to 1 per member, will contain one 12" and one single (7" or 10") vinyl release. Pearl Jam, Eddie Vedder, Jeff Ament, Stone Gossard, and Mike McCready releases will be included.

    Click below to find the full list of offerings, and approximate quantities included in the sale.

    ----and here's the link to the site:
    http://www.pearljam.com/tenclub/events/1/22613/2015_record_store_day_mystery_vinyl



    So....definitely a "mystery item" and not a "random" thing.

    A friend of mine. I won't share her name here. I won't speak for her either but there's a *slight* chance she might be up for trading it (she'd probably need a proper PJ album in return).

    It seems like she has already posted pics on FB
    Oh - ok. I didn't want to do anything without her permission.

    Be patient, pjradio, mine was brought by the UPS guy, not with regular mail.

    Curious, have all deliveries been by UPS as opposed to the regular mailman?

    And Leeze....does your newly acquired Benny live up to the hype?!

    I have to say yes. It seems like this was made to be listened to on vinyl. Everything is all warm and fuzzy. I love that the show is so long. Somebody said they don't spin theirs often because they don't like to flip records all the time. Well, four records is a lot. But each side goes for a decent amount of time. I had a fabulous time cooking while listening yesterday. Our living room has lived up to the hype too. It is all open with no walls to the kitchen. We have nice vintage floor speakers from the early eighties, and they have never sounded better.

    Please, Pearl Jam, consider a Benaroya Hall vinyl reissue!

    A trade was requested of the person who posted on FB and her response was "not for sale, not for trade".

    For anyone that gets a purple mad season and is up for trading/selling, PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR!!!!

    Thanks!!

    I posted the recording of the live Periscope broadcast I did on the Official Pearl Jam Ten Club Members Facebook page, if anyone's interested. 17 people joined the broadcast when it happened. It was fun!

    It's true that I already have Backspacer as most of us do, but I got a very rare record that will likely never be repressed along with it, plus the whole experience of anticipation was fun. No reason to complain on my end.

    PS- it'll be interesting to see how people feel about Backspacer when it is out of print, disappears from stores and is the new hot collectors item. I'm predicting this will happen around 2029 just before the reissue Haha.

    Got a Moonlander and Merkinball 7". While nothing great its two for spinning that I didn't have. Was fun waiting and dreaming. I will not share the weight as it will take the fun out for someone else.

    awesome...I have 3 copies!

    I also got Into the Wild and a white Fixer. Mine weighted in at 1.885. I am thrilled about the Into the Wild. It was very very high on my wish list. Ive already have a white fixer, actually I think I have 3 of them now. An outdoors store (I have no idea why they where carrying them) was selling them dirt cheap, so I picked up a couple. If anyone is looking to trade for a white fixer hit me up. I also have a red RSD Mad Season I can trade.

    I'm so glad I can't see where mine is or what the weight if mine is. I feel it would ruin the excitement to an extent.

    I know for a fact I will be checking my mail every day for the next few weeks with anticipation. This has been a blast all round.
