Hi, all! Longtime listener, first time member of the fanclub and PJ page.  Got my shirt and license plate ordered. What else do i need to know to best immerse myself in this group? Any dos/don'ts, etc that aren't spelled out. Like, unspoken rules or whatever? Not that I'm looking to break any...just happy to be here. Peace from the midwest!

    Advice would be to not take things personally when some share their opinions in a messed up way.
    All just people typing on a keyboard.  Sometimes jokes or sarcasm doesn't come across as intended.  (Other times people can be.....well, people.)

    There are, however, many very fine people here who love to help other fans and have fun communicating on the different forum topics.  Jump in and enjoy!

    Okay! This is good stuff. Hi, everyone. And thank you!
    I'm just realizing there are like tons of different "boards" within this thing.

    I was diving, I was diving
    I surfaced when all of my being was enlightened..."  =) 

    This could take a while.      B)

    Do not ever, even in jest, use the term "jamily"

    Also the Tenclub sucks.
    Oh wait the Tenclub is awesome
    The PJ fan club ticketing system is the worst

     Welcome, Bombchelle :hang_loose: Solid name!

    Hmmm, forum tips and suggestions....a few come to mind:

    - Newsletters drop at 10a pacific on the 10th of each month
    - Be quick on the draw for limited merch drops. @Santos L. Halper (w/ 10C) is your friend and posts links on the forum.
    - Check on the 'Given to Fly' forum during tour time for setlist relays....it's fun to follow along if that's your thing and you're not at the show
    - There's a lot of good people around here. And some crusty whiners too. Take it all with a grain of salt.
    - oh...and regardless of what you may hear otherwise on here Johnny Guitar is a bada$$ song :rock_on::glasses:

    Enjoy the ride....and the tour...and the new album....!!
