Ten Club, bring back cool stuff like the Vitalogy Health Club Starter Kit

I was just thinking how cool it would be if Ten Club started doing some cool shit for members like back in the day. I'm not saying that I don't appreciate what they do now with respect to ticketing and stuff, but just the "other" stuff that made being in Ten Club special.

For example, the Vitalogy Health Club Starter Kit ( http://www.twofeetthick.com/tft/readArticle.action?id=2324 ) was cool.

Do I have anyone on the bandwagon with me, or am I going to be alone like a fat chick at her senior prom?

    It would be cool to have the one from back then. It would be cool now as long as the fees don't go up because of it.

    That stuff predates my membership and looks awesome...I'd settle for a new 10c tshirt design, but that stuff is all pretty rad (and irreverent) - for some reason I don't think the band is focusing too much on that kinda stuff anymore, but they seem to surprise us every once in a while

    Man... forgot all about mine... Its still sitting in my closet in some boxes. The only thing I remember using was the flipbook... I think all the decals are still intact. Gotta pull that thing out again!

    That's pretty awesome. I feel as though something like that wouldn't be very profitable so the days of stuff like that have been replaced with poster books and $40 lighters.

    It think it'd be a good idea to bring back iron-on patches.

    I still have the decals intact, too. (I bought this long before I could drive!) I'd like for them to bring back decals, too, but not the kind that they used for the mosquito logos, but the static cling, easily-removable/re-usable kind. That way you can decorate your vehicle's or house's windows without having to worry about any possible damage from scraping the decorations off if you wanted to sell/trade-in your car or move to a new house.

    I occasionally flip though the flippy book. Fun times, minutes of enjoyment! ;) I think the stamp would have been better if it said Pearl Jam instead of No Code, like on the old NC hoodie (black zip-up w/ maroon/silver NC logo patch on left side).

    They actually have these... I picked one up at the wishlist pre-party in OKC.

    Has the circular symbol with a lightning bolt and PJ in it, and on the other side says "touring fans.net"

    might be able to get one there? http://www.touringfans.net/

    Yes please! I missed out on the last two on ebay. I really want one...

    I've been trying for years to get the ambulance sticker from the Health Club starter kit. I'm a paramedic so you can see why I want this! I've tried here before with no luck but since it's been brought up... Anyone got one to sell? Or how about maybe the T shirt with the image?

    I still have a bunch of these! They were cool in theory but didn't last very long on fabric items.

    Edit, sorry. I wasn't thinking about the patches. I was thinking of the old iron-ons they had. Like the rooster or truck one. I'll have to dig them up.

    I agree. The sticker kits and the ugly I'm Analog shirts don't really make for a great membership package. The sticker kits don't even have the word Pearl Jam in them... lol.

    I wouldn't complain if they came up with more interesting (and less tacky) things to include in the membership package. If the shirts are going to be tacky, maybe include 1 shirt of your choice from the store. I also wouldn't complain if the membeship kits emphasized Pearl Jam opposed to 10c. I'm a fan of the band, not their fan club :)

    your last sentence is a recurring theme/complaint that many of the membership have vocalized.

    I don't mind if it say's 10club / Pearl Jam. Least put back "Pearl Jam" on their fan club merchandise.
