    Not only was PJ20 an EVENT of a LIFETIME...

    image

    the Pearl Jam Museum was INCREDIBLE:

    TEN CLUB PARK at Alpine Valley was one of the BEST concert experiences I've ever had:

    Putting this celebration together for the FANS proved to me that 10 Club was thinking about the members and these thoughts matter to me!!

    Because I still remember the first time I heard "Alive" on the radio on a late night driving home from work in high school. I've been a fan of PJ ever since, but just this year became a 10Club member for the first time. I could never seem to justify spending the money on a fan club membership, and am really glad that I finally did. And yeah, the rumor about free tacos...

    Welcome.
    Membership fees are paltry compared to the experiences you will have as a member.

    So you can set an event in your calendar on Record Store Day, login, make a purchase, and have it cancelled without notice or explanation because they assume you're flipping.

    I generally buy 4-5 copies of each release. I put them up on my wall as art and play one - haven't sold a single one. It's outstanding how they value their members (the truth, as well as frustrated sarcasm in this case); if they were actually concerned about flippers, they'd just limit the number of records you could buy per membership - not cancel orders.

    Poor form - unsure whether I will continue to be a member.

    That would be awesome to see.

    I like the mystery sales...not knowing if I got something or not.

    I like pressing F5, that key gets a workout, and probably gets more action than any of the other 'F' keys.

    I'm here for the pony rides, funnel cakes and goat petting zoo.

    Oh, and to laugh at Kevin and his cheeseless Philly cheese steak sammich.

    Ha! I am not terribly savvy in this department... Working on it. Currently have Ukelele Songs and Live on Ten Legs up - nothing spectacular. Will try to figure out pictures though - just got onto Instagram ;)

    With Kevin? Well, if they explored other parts of the message board they'd know about Kevin. ;)

    Kind of a crumby picture, but I figured out how to post, at least... so that's something. I'm considering devoting a larger space for more albums, but most of the wall-space in the 'man cave', so to speak, is covered in acoustic panels and Pearl Jam/ other framed music posters (this is the living room, which is a bit more subdued ;)). I don't often just have 4 x 4 of the same - I trade them in and out for the album art.

    Haha... you are very kind. I got the idea to put them up after I bought Miles Davis' Bitches Brew album several years ago - just lovely art work. The Lightning Bolt release was a good time - they did a really rather spectacular job with it.

    I was pretty bummed to have my order cancelled. As with just about anyone else, I can't afford to buy a copy of Benaroya Hall, so to have even a chance at one was pretty cool. The world will continue to spin, however... it was just a disappointment for the loss of opportunity. I just can't bring myself to buy it on CD... lol

    not a lot of selections, though. :lol:
    that uke album is out of print so that one should be popular.
