    Well... I paid $1500 for a festival this past July, as a gift for the gf... it turns out the promoter grabbed all of our funds and cancelled the shows... my bank won’t even give me the time of day because I’m out of the dispute window... makes some fan club issues seem minimal... (just be thankful we get anything over the years??)
    What festival?

    I like the singles for the collection part of it. Never play 7 inch singles at my house. Whole album or nothing. We should all know by now that communication is not a strong point for this band/fan club. To me 20 bucks is 20 bucks. Doesn’t matter what I spend on weed, lunch or anything else. As I sit here in the 105 degree heat for work that’s income I didn’t feel like throwing away. 

    And to the people who said it’s for the tickets, there are no consistent shows for a long time. Once again, no communication from anyone involved. 

    Ill end it with this. All of those who don’t care about the 20 bucks a year please pm me and I’ll send you my address so you can send me some of that disposable income. I’ll take anything I can get. Thank you
    Me too I’ll take some spare $20.

    It is the lack of communication that’s annoying for me. We know these guys work to their own schedule and we learn to live with the frequency of shows and new music output or lack thereof. But this prolonged silence is just frustrating. Tell us what’s up please. It’s like calling in sick for work - I don’t need a blow by blow account of how you ill you’ve been. I just want to know you’re alright and that you’ll be back tomorrow or the day after. And when I’m gonna get my singles...

    Unfortunately just complaining on the message board is not going to really do anything. I think its fine just to vent frustration. Personally I think unless it becomes a news story that other music websites pick up, they wouldnt take much notice and no one is going to file a court case. I cant even remember what the analog description was back in 2017 and if they would legally have to send us the singles.

    It would be great if everyone was strong enough to say no to any more merch until this was resolved but thats never going to happen.

    If the bands not choosing it/recording it, what is 10c supposed to do? They work for the band. The band doesn't read these boards. Its shouting into the void. They gave us an update 7 months ago. I'm sure its out of their hands at this point.

    Yes, you said it - 7 (SEVEN) months ago. And then it was ready to go to the pressing plant or whatever?

    Seven months.

    If the 10c came out and said, “we have no update, the band hasn’t chosen anything”, everyone would be happy, right?

    I would be. A "We're waiting like you do. The band has postponed going into the studio and whip it together because of Eddies Europe tour he had to do to pay off Glens new summerhouse" would be great. And to be expected IMO. 

    Compare to the Do the Evolution musicvideo book that has been postponed since 2016 - they have updated with reasons like "The book is done. It's sent to the band for them to sign off on it". That book is late as hell, but there has been communications. Which cost nothing in this digital day and age. 

    Because to my knowledge you don't get a fine or something of that nature when communication. People sometimes even want to communicate and update people who's money they have taken.

    All that would do is give the usual suspects a new chance to piss and moan. Instead of crying about no communication, it would turn into the communication not being good enough.

    Its a damned if you do and a damned if you don't situation. I figure no updates means no news. I'm sure we'll get an update when they go into production, until then, yeah it sucks we don't have anything yet, but I'm sure there is nothing to update. 

    Part of me thinks that people want to hear that "there is no to update" so they can complain more.

    It wouldn't be one of these threads without the people complaining about people complaining posts.

    For a band constantly preaching how  we should act, be committed to this or that cause, they have been totally uncommitted to this aspect of their bought and paid for obligation, to those whom have been most loyal to them. 

    It is unprofessional, and the antithesis of what they continually lecture us about.  Sometimes the principal of meeting your obligations is a big deal to people.

    The single  has never,  been a reliable release, but it always got released.  They say they will take care of it, I believe they will.  To take years to meet your requirement to your most loyal fans.....poor reflection  of them, their view of us (clearly we are merch lemmings to them).  Now because we are critical of their poor business practices, we will gey banned, threatened with locked accounts or threads, or bullied by the board.

    I love the 10c. I love Pearl Jam. With that being said there is no acceptable defense of not at least giving paid members an update on what is happening with the last two holiday singles. $20 or $1000 it doesn’t matter the amount. It is wrong for any company to accept money for goods and not deliver. Or at the very least give a time frame update. And I put a lot of blame here on the band as well. Especially as much as they all love vinyl. You think they would care about releasing a cool piece for the last two singles. And just for the record I’m not “worked up” over this in any way at all. Just stating some facts.

    Some people have valid points from a consumer standpoint but we’re talking about the Christmas single here, guys. :lol:  

    i truly don't care one way or the other.  The other benefits are just fine with me.   Bring on Vault 9!

    How much $ do you think PJ made off analog subscriptions over a 2 year period?

    Well, I hope painting some killer whales at least gave Eddie some inspiration for the artwork of the next single.

    You are smart enough to know it's more about the principle and them taking us for granted with their silence and not giving a crap for X years to produce what has been paid for.

    I don't give a crap about the actual single. It shows up when it shows up. And hopefully the DEEP too - because that is great,

    I do give a shit about tenclub attitude towards us and the magic of communication.
    I do give a shit about Pearl Jam finding a bunch of stuff to do for X years but not the time or energy to care enough to fix the things they owe us. 

    That says something.

    "couldnt" care less.  
    Actually, it is “couldn’t”
    I’m not a fan of grammar police, but at least do it correctly if you’re going to do it.
