As I mentioned yesterday, my Med box was scheduled to be delivered to me today here in NoCal -- and it was. But I'm waiting for my 11-year-old nephew to get home before I open the box. So here I am ... a 56-year-old man, sitting in his room, trying to stay focused on getting my work done, with an unopened box of "stuff" from my favorite band on the floor just behind me. And every 5 minutes, I turn around and look at the box. Then I turn back around to my computer and type. This has been going on for 35 minutes now. Turn, box. Turn, computer again. Am I just a super immature fan boy with nothing better to do with his life? Or is it okay that a mystery box ... order from the 10C ... tour news update ... or pretty much anything from Pearl Jam makes me happy to be on the planet (especially since that feeling eludes me on enough days that I'm ashamed by it)? I'm just gonna go with the notion that this is all okay and it doesn't matter how "mature" or "immature" any of this makes me. I'm just gonna relish the anticipation and the happiness. I sound like a much less articulate Marc Maron here. Sorry for the self-involvement. Have a great day everyone.

@jjflash no it has what appears to be a 2016 Black and gold PJ logo similar to the one on the third man release.

This is where all the big boys check their shipping weight.... thats ain't a 5.6-pound box
I’ve been stalking my UPS app all day! Left work as soon as it said delivered. I got double postered - but definitely better than a double baby brain! 😆😆
Thanks 10C! This was worth all the excitement!!
Nice, that's a great box! Congratulations on the score!
Ok. Mediums will have left the building as of 3pm pdt. The first 50 or so 3x boxes have also flown. Someone's 3x box is gonna be extra special.
That’s an interesting size box!
That's a guitar......holy sheet

Oh ... oh, sweet jeebus. Recipient, whoever you are, you have to post photos of the whole unboxing experience. You GOTTA love this band and the 10C folks.
Here is what I received. Very happy and this was a lot of fun! Thanks 10C!
I wonder if Brothermoon can make a custom sleeve for my orange fixer...
Posters were Emek Seattle and Munk One Milan.
WTF is that supposed to be?? A candle?!
Not a candle, I believe this is the state of a record before being pressed
Lol!! Seriously? I thought he was joking! I'm pretty sure they put the labels on after they press the wax. I don't get it... Is this Santo's sense of humour?
