  • I think at this point we will see another double sleeve holiday single. Prediction is it will be Eddie's set from the Global Citizen Nelson Mandella show. We will see.

    Oh, I hope not! I prefer a Pearl Jam fan club single to be Pearl Jam music, not Ed solo.

    Sadly it's all about communication... which when it comes to the 10 club there is FUCKING ZERO... (unless it's about merch)... and a perfect example is this thread, how simple would it be for someone from the 10 club to comment on what we're discussing and give us an update, or at least acknowledge the discussion... but of course, NOTHING... silence,... there has been a huge disconnect from the 10 club and it's members, and i honestly don't think the band has much to do with the 10 club anymore, so i'm guessing they don't even realize how bad it's gotten... because if you ran into any member of the band you know they'd at least answer any questions you had and would let you know what's going on with the band... so in my opinion it's all on the 10 club, and over the last few years it seems like they just don't give a fuck anymore..., the band used to run the fan club, and it was fucking epic... and sadly when that all changed, well look where we are now... it's really just fucking sad, and we have every right to be pissed off about it..., so hopefully our voices will be heard and something will change, and maybe 2019 will bring better days...

    LOL, yeah, that was a real treat. I don't need to hear Ed with Beyonce, or Bieber or Miley Cyrus, or any of his a-list friends (or b- c- or d-list). I just want to hear PJ do something. Preferably something new, or rare, or unique. Or even goofy would be fine. But make it PJ.

    What if it was Pearl jam with Miley Cyrus ?

    That would be awesome. Anyone who was eligible in 2017 or 2018 gets both.

    We'd be all caught up until the end of 2019.

    This Christmas Single issue is going to either cause a Riot Act around here or an Evacuation.

    A few of us have expressed our concerns with our wallets - somewhat - by downgrading to digital.  Granted we are still missing out on promised benefits as we haven't received digital files that we paid for 2 years ago.  But if everyone who had analog would cut back to digital, that's half the revenue from those customers in membership fees that 10C no longer gets.  Will it matter to them, will it make a difference, will they be more apt to fulfill the benefits promised?  Who knows?  But this is what's great about living in democracy, we get to speak with our actions.
    I doubt it.  I think you would have to have the majority here boycott the club all together... and then there would be no club, so there would be little point in that. 

    I think the best thing to do is speak our minds here while at the same time respecting the forum rules so that what we say is heard in fair terms. 

    And having done so, it would be nice to get a likewise respectable response.

    10C, are you listening?
    Boycott would definitely be effective. If I didn’t have a number from ‘98 I’d have dropped. Seniority is the only thing keeping me in at this point.
    But you don’t think losing out on all this free, easy money from the band wouldnt take notice? It definitely would. Even when the obligation is filled, it is a zero effort by the band. It’s not like they go to the studio once a year to record the single (don’t they usually just use an outtake, soundcheck, rehearsal or demo or something and add an unreleased live track?). It’s not like they even have to get them together to record something. It’s stupid easy money for the band and they have taken advantage of it.
    A boycott would definitely work, but unfortunately I think too many, like myself, aren’t ready to give up membership yet.

    I say we just absolutely monsoon their customer service with complaints at the exact same time. That’ll send a resonating message.

    I suggested this previously but no one was interested. I think if they came back from the holidays to several thousand emails all saying the same they would be fools not to take notice. For all those speculating what the single will be, we already know its Cant Deny Me.

    Now that would be a good idea, and also this would be the perfect time for doing it: they will return from vacation and find thousands and thousands of complaining emails all with the same message. I'm in, for what it's worth. Just post here the text to be sent, and let's see how many people adhere.

    Pressing Can't Deny Me will be so underwhelming 9 months after it was released. If it's not a 10 inch with 3 other songs or something.

    It will be even more underwhelming if it’s on the “forthcoming” new album

    You do know that forthcoming album is code for greatest hits LP with Can't Deny Me as the token new song.

    I'm not the best at writing a balanced email to 10c because at this stage I'm too angry about this. Can we have a volunteer who can word this. We all need to use the same subject, same address to send it to and the identical content.  Volunteers? Then post here once you send the email so we can track the number of emails they might get. It also might get more member attention if we start a new thread.
