    Thanks, Tim. :)

    But still no homemade canned tomatoes, though?? LOL

    Anyway, thanks for interpreting the little bird - I don't blame the bird for not wanting to come here itself. :D;)

    Poor bird. its not its fault :(
    Friends, dont kill innocent birds. Please.
    Sid will be very very sad.

    Thanks for the news. Im happy. I guess Im one of the few (or the only one)
    who wasnt expecting any big news...whatever you guys were expecting...
    Heh, it's more about the tweet thing than the annoucement. The annoucement was always gonna be for something insignificant. It's the use of the tweet thing that's messing with my head.

    Seriously. I wasn't expecting anything big, but I'd hardly call this something to get everyone excited for. I can shell out 50 bucks, or even 200! if I want an extra special book!! & We may even get our Xmas single on time...whooo I can hardly contain myself. :rolleyes:

    LMAO!!!! I have to admit that I doubted that email when everyone started saying they hadnt gotten it and I hadnt either... but you are right at least no one got on the phone and call 10C to check on the authenticity of the email :D

    Sid...oh how i miss you.

    no disappointments here. can't wait for my Deep to arrive and the annual holiday single!

    it occurred to me this morning that Sea's tweet post said "...it's a good time of the year..." and it made sense that it was probably the annual gift that we were being advised about...cause it's getting close to that time of year. duh ;).

    And no one makes me close my eyes
    So I throw the windows wide
    And call to you across the sky....

    I don't think I saw that the 10C ever said there was a "major announcement." That was a bunch of people who started putting out a bunch of theories on what it could be. I mean seriously, I am all for being excited and hopeful about some possibility, but don't blame the 10C for being disappointed. All they said was it was a good time of year to make sure our memberships were updated.

    Well I'm excited! :)

    This will be my first holiday single from 10club and I couldn't care if it was Eddie singing Tiptoe Through The Tulips with a ukulele! :D Actually that sounds pretty darn cool to me! :D


    Thanks rubysdad! :)
    NOPE!!!

    My feelings exactly. Same here! :)
  • AM I the only one that is still holding out hope that the annual gift will be more than we are used to... like maybe instead of one song and a B side that we generally have access to before the vinyl's arrival, that we actually get something really special on vinyl this year?!?

    Ok, so maybe I am overly hopeful or optimistic... but until I get mine in April or May, I will still hold out hope that it will be something even more special than usual.




    Never hurts to hope... just hurts when you are expecting it, and it doesn't happen!
    For those who scoff at "Jamily" in my name... 9 years ago, when my first daughter was born there were jokes about whether my priority would be my family or PJ. I smiled and quipped "I am a JamilyMan." What was a family joke became a hated term among jammers. Didn't see that one coming!

  • Why do people still want MORE from this fan club and the band? I dont get it.


    I don't think hoping for an extra song or two is really all that demanding. I love being a 10 Club member and am thankful for what they provide us. If I didn't think it was a good deal I would have quit a long time ago... not happening. Like everyone else, though, when we get the single, I am hopeful that it will be special. This year, I am hoping the same - although I would take quality over quantity every time!

    PEACE

    I'm not sure "news" is the appropriate term.

  • Well, I may be firmly in the minority here, but thanks 10 Club. I am very much looking forward to the single (Though for me it's just for display, as I haven't had a record player since my brother went off to college in 1982, taking his Blondie collection with him) and the book.
  • What are the odds on the single containing songs we've already heard?

    It's for the vinyl, and it also gave us heads up for the merch, birdies do everything this days...

    well i did try and tell you all it would be the xmas single... i mean why oh why would they need to have your shipping address up-to-date for concert tickets... we all know these are picked up on the day of the gig... so it could only have been for something they were posting out.

    yes, i am smug... but I love reading the crybabys comments anyway.
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.
  • Come on, did anyone actually think they would be touring again this soon?

    I'm really excited for the single and I just hope it will be something we haven't heard yet. :)

    your making my point though! the 10 club knows how if they put out something a few days in advance like a "tweet" thread we fans go insane! whether we should or not is a non issue...anyway i just think the 10 club could have avoided any overreaction by simply making this thread and saying you have until some point to renew/update! personally im not upset or anything i didnt think they would tour now there is really no reason to tour at this time!

    I'm going to start treating the bird like the boy who cried wolf. Tweeting around like there's some big secret coming. And all for the Xmas single, which, like every year, we're told is going to be sent out sooner than later. I'm patient when it comes to the single, but I was starting to think this little bird had really important surprised for us.

    I had my dreams for something much bigger...Damn you, Bird!

    My views on recreational hunting of birds have been completely altered over the past week. On private ownership of assault weapons, too.

    Anyone up for firing IEDs at birds that go tweet? It'll be 100% based on recreation, cos we're blowing them up rather than hunting game.
    I'm with you guys..

    birds that sing out of turn and shit $10 eggs should be driven to extinction!
    :D

    last year they came out with it straight: make sure your membership uptodate by teh xx for the single.
    simple, to the point, end of story.

    teasing us with a tweet is looking for trouble, Cheney style..
