Joined a bit late (I think the XMas single with the Skeleton hand (Last Kiss?) was the first I was around for, plus I think my membership lapsed one year I was in college.
On the other hand I've got a great low member # for the DMB fanclub since I joined right off the bat in 12/99 (which I'd give up in a heartbeat for a low 10c #).

Must have joined in about 1997, should have been much earlier but you had to be more organised to be an overseas member back then (sending cash, buying international reply coupons, etc)

... and I still think Drive-By Truckers are better.
43 145xxx (I had a lower number but either it lapsed or i think 10c did some change of numbers one year, i think my tour show tix that I get are better than what my 10c id is, so they could still be referencing my old id for tix).
What would be cool is for someone to put together a database of this info that is accessible on the internets with a 10c member's number in 999xxx format and their location, so you could search it to give you an idea of your seniority level within your area.
There was a website that did that but I don't think it's in existance anymore. It was interesting to see but it was only as good as people would post. So it only gave a rough estimate.
A real possibility I may meet you in my dreams ~ I go to sleep

good idea! I like the location and number idea. Hope someone can do this.
Not a bad number, but it's done me absolutely no good since 2003, the last time PJ played a Bay Area show that wasn't GA. Bummer to see them play so many places multiple times in past six years, yet nothing here.
That said, fingers crossed for an early 2010 show with actual fan club seats somewhere around here.

I think I let it lapse once, around '95.

My Original # in High School was 178097 back in 1998
Have always liked the band but had never done fan clubs before, boy has that been a mistake
