    Hell yes but not from 10C. Looking forward to a Newbury Comics visit on the morning of 3/27. Did the same for ST/Avocado in 2006.

    I remember going to Target for Backspacer on a Saturday morning because they had the t-shirt promotion. Strange that I can't remember what I did for Lightning Bolt.

    this is kind of where I am at..... was a bit underwhelmed by LB and the sound quality of the vinyl release..... they tried hard but I listened to it the other night and came to the same conclusion ...... the vinyl press/ mastering was subpar..... even after I received a 'fixed' version....

    I no longer buy physical items, so no. I'll listen on a streaming music service and support the band financially by seeing them on the tour.

    Yes, ordered the CD Bundle 
  • KN219077KN219077 Montana Posts: 1,164
    Buy from amazon, often get the free mp3 download along with the physical cd for about $1 more.

    i hvae a hard time believing people could pay for a yearly fan club and not buy an album from a band they love to support them.

    I purchased a vinyl and then a CD/7' bundle. A little disappointed you can't order them together but I'm sure there's a good reason for it. The standalone CD is no longer available in the GOODS section so I had to buy the bundle with the 7". I'm having them both shipped to my parents place in the US as shipping equaled the cost of the items to ship to Canada so I'm hoping on release day I get a download link for 10c and then I'll just have to wait till the next time my parents go down to their place and bring the mail back for me to enjoy the physical copies. Less than ideal, but every album I can think of from the last 14+ years that I've bought in the 10C store has come with some sort of little extra bonus so it's a small risk I'm willing to take to wait a little longer for the physical copies. 
  • sparky_frysparky_fry Posts: 760
    Yes, but $80 Canadian for just the record is crazy.

    Also have no idea why the single is $17.

    I'll be buying it local as well.

    I have high hopes for this album. I think they are really going to blow us away with a great effort.

    LOL the OP is asking the 10 Club Pearl Jam fan club forum, whether or not, they are going to purchase the new Pearl Jam album.

    Oy vey.

    And we’ve already had one person answer “no”, so not a terrible question!

    Yes, ordered the vinyl bundle from the shop. It's good to support your local record store but (1) I don't really have one, (2) if there's one thing that's better than supporting your local shop, it's directly supporting your favorite bands so I try to order from artist sites when I can (admittedly this is less of a concern with PJ, they get enough of my money) and (3) there's a chance that you might get some extras from the club, like the slipmat/sticker for LP2.

    Ordered the LP bundle on 10C, but going to cancel and go with just the LP on Amazon. 

    I'll pick up the CD later whenever it drops in price (currently $18).
  • tbergstbergs Posts: 10,102
    Probably end up ordering vinyl from 10C and streaming from mobile when on the go. It would be the first CD I don't have from them that's an official album release so if it's really good I'll most likely cave and get the CD too.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Yes -They really took their time with Gigaton and I'm excited to hear the results. Will get it from the closest shop to me. We've lost one since LB - so the drive will be a little further this time. But, I found out that the owner of the other shop was the same guy that owned the first indie store I frequented in another town back in the '90's. Glad he's still going!

    I'll buy the vinyl somewhere online, got burned with buying Live at Easy Street for way too much through 10c as I didn't think it would show up elsewhere.  Wouldn't have minded if it included some extra goodies but it was nearly half the price at other places when including the free shipping.

    Ordered the CD/7" bundle. I have all of the other albums on CD, so I want to continue that. Going to order the vinyl from Amazon, because I have a gift card, so it won't cost me anything out of pocket.
