    No one truly knows what goes on in that world so it’s all conjecture. 

    But the fact still remains we paid for something that they haven’t, cant or won’t deliver. No one should be losing their heads over first world problems like a couple of 45s, no question but it’s not right. Simple as that. 

    Just put it out, anything will do, Ed reciting the alphabet, an extended mix of the writers block typewriter thing at the end of binaural. Or else provide a refund.

    I’m a little disappointed the singles are no more...I say a little disappointed because I realize it’s a first world problem and there are far more pressing concerns for one and all these days. Having said that it was always exciting to receive these while anticipating what would actually be released. It was certainly a little gem from the band just for the fan club and it felt like it flew under the radar for the most part. Mind you 20 years ago bandwidth isn’t what it is today and the fan club has been able to expand while developing a more direct connection with the band and suddenly you didn’t need to wait months to hear news. I get it...it’s evolution but the old fart in me still looks back at the fan club past with warm feelings while shaking my proverbial fists at you youngin today with your airbuds and your parking assists and your indifference towards these 45’s*


    *sarcasm alert.
    So true....all of it. I remember the rumour pit, and the waiting for the rock magazine in the Uk every Weds for some tidbit on the world of Pearl Jam......I recall the vitalogy and No code era specifically - scouring pages for a quote from the band......

    These days its in the news within 10 minutes of it being said. 

    Im an old romantic too, I love a CD. But this year i got a log in to Apple Music.......after abstaining for years to succumb to the spotify movement, and instantly regretted not doing it years earlier. Even Dinosaurs need to evolve Eric.....

    Peak Christmas single time was that post Yield era and having Strangest Tribe and Driftin show up on my doorstep.   Magical.

    Here's to another year of the same. I dont think we can count that out. I mean back in 2016 did we ever think we wouldnt be getting  the single this decade. Im a non believer in the 2017 typo btw.

    I predict next year there will be a lot of new posts in this very thread, other explosion gifs and funny faces memes, and other posts by Tim Bierm... sorry, Tim Simmons, telling us how useless it is to keep posting the same stuff over and over. I'm a clairvoyant.

    ps: all of the above is not to be taken seriously. Any complaints, send them to Jammalambo's lawyer, Frederick F. Ucker.

    As far as I’m concerned this was the far and away the best single. Could have straight up been a one off like Merkin

    Should we start a poll. What will happen first, Trump releases his tax records. Or Pearl jam releases the holiday singles

    For the past 20 years or so I have never cared for anything other than having access to ten club tickets. I do think the people who enjoy the singles should have received them and for the life of me why are people defending the tenclub/band for not fulfilling their end of an agreement. It's okay to criticize them. 
    I think it's because we don't know if it's the 10c or the band.  If it's the band it explains why the 10c doesn't say much.   It doesn't look good if they keep putting out updates saying they are waiting on the band.  First rule of management is shit goes uphill not downhill :)
    The Ten Club is part of the Pearl Jam LLC which is the band.

    Safe to say that it isn't happening in 2019.

    I checked in here to see if I had missed something. A long time ago there was an update that the remaining singles were coming soon, but nothing showed up at my doorstep. I thought something had gone wrong and my delivery had been lost in transit. But from what I understand they still haven't been sent out yet.
    *Sigh*
    Oh well, I keep on waiting...

    Yeah, not happening in 2019 Im afraid. I think everyone is hopeful that we might get something in 2020.

    It really is incredibly strange how this continues to keep dragging on.

    I'm really surprised that they didn't announce they were going to stop making DEEP for 2020. They are 2 singles behind and 3 issues of DEEP. I'm sure they can make 2 records to send out but I don't know how they are going to fix the DEEP issues. As I understand, the DEEP magazine was a yearly newsletter. It's now been 3 years(2019, 2018, 2017). Are they going to go back and write issues specific to those years?

    This whole thing is just ridiculous. How do none of the 5 members of Pearl Jam care about correcting this? It only takes 1 member to create DEEP. Fans that have ZERO contacts with the band could make DEEP. It's so frustrating that they don't care enough to make this right. You don't have to be a member of the 10c to be a fan of Pearl Jam. I would safely assume the biggest Pearl Jam fans are paying members of the 10c. You'd think the band would want to show appreciation for the paying fan club members. When I say appreciation, I'm only referring to them holding up their end of the deal. I'm not asking for above and beyond. They can't even communicate properly about this.

    If I am not mistaken, DEEP was originally at least a twice a year thing, right? Didn't they bump it down to a yearly thing because they couldn't get it done? I would just like some communication from TC to tell us if any of this we have paid for will ever arrive.
