SO, if you already pre-ordered through the ten club you don't get the bootlegs?

ya that's not fair....ive never complained about PJ doin big-business stuff before...ive always said do what you want to make a buck but this is redic. As fans, we all want these 11 shows but it's absurd to have to buy 5-6 of the same CD to get it. That's just going overboard guys. Open the vault and let us buy the boots we want just like before years ago when we had the option to.

Huh? It seems pretty obvious that they're going to finally open the vault in conjunction with the new album, and you can download boots and you get two free ones if you bought the new album. I don't think they would put a bunch of shows up only for the free ones you get with the album and not have the option to purchase apart from that. But if you would rather buy Backspace 5 times instead of just paying for the downloads, more power to ya.

he was obviously using the word gay, not in the homosexual way, but in a way that means lame or uncool? Dont be so easily offended.

Exactly MY point!!!
I think it'd be great if more people stopped using that word to talk something down.[/quote]

Unfortunately we are not entitled to the right to not be offended in this country. If you dont like someone's words you can ignore them. Or maybe we should try to ban another word??

Not trying to argue with you , I just get annoyed when people take words of context.[/quote]

People shouldn't use the word gay to mean "lame" or "uncool"... it's just not right. It's easy to say "don't be offended" when you're not the one being offended. The poster of the orginal comment needs to work on removing that use of the word from his lexicon.

Let's say you WERE African American (which I assume you're not, given your avatar)..... I come up to you and say "Listen to the stupid thing so and so just said to me, that's so BLACK of them to say that..."

Wouldn't you be offended by my use of BLACK to suggest STUPID?

the word gay used to mean happy, the original meaning of the word has been warped as it is.

I completely agree with you, its not like I’m getting bent outta shape because someone is cursing, using the word gay to describe something as lame or stupid is wrong, there is really no excuse for it.
Unfortunately it’s widely accepted for people to say “this is so gay” or “I feel so gay” … I guess under the premise that we should be able to use whatever word we please then I guess it should be ok to throw around the “N” word when talking something down. The argument that we should be able to use whatever word we want and the rest should ignore it is not a valid argument, no matter where you are (message board, party, school or at home) we should be respectful to others and care about not offending people.

Every time I see that term I make a comment (not only on the message board) because it is wrong, and maybe one of my comments will make someone else think before they speak or type the next time.

seriously not cool.

RELAX...before this thread gets locked because of this...end it. This thread is about the upcoming Target release with extra goodies..get back on topic. Its a friggin word...

uh as for shows I'd like something from 1991-1998 long before anything from this century when the official boots launched.

As for getting access to the vault, I assume the Ten Club CDs will have this. Its an imprint on the disc, digitally, not the packaging etc. Do you honestly think the band would do that?

Also, $10 at target for 2 free bootlegs is cheaper than ordering through Ten Club bootlegs anyway Might be smart to buy 4 extras for the 8 bootlegs and give the CDs to friends afterward.

it's just that... the more someone tries to explain that using 'gay' to mean 'stupid' isn't offensive or worth being upset about... the more they are actually illustrating that they are an asshole. lock the thread, it makes me sad to think of a gay PJ fan stumbling across a bunch of other fans being douchebags.

Hey if I buy 5 CD's I will have access to almost all the boots!!

Can you imagine which 11 shows "spanning Pearl Jam's carreer" they picked!!!


:shock:

So... those of us who trusted PJ and bought directly from them get.... what?

I'm sure we'll all have access to it, I think its like someone mentioned before, an enhanced CD (@ least I hope) :geek:
