There's been a few album vs album and song vs song threads out there during to slow Holiday Season here. So, pick your favorite fan club name. I always liked the VHC...it was the name of the club when I joined using a post card and stamp and dropping it off in a mailbox.

Any idea why we had a name change?

    ah..the old days..

    we would gather round the FM radio furiously ranting that our C90 TDK casstte was going to run out before the end of Mikey's solo in "Garden" from the 4/3/94 Atlanta broadcast..

    Damn that "Tape flip" was so tricky...

    and we would climb up the nearest telephone pole to make our collect call to the Seattle Pearl Jam news update message with hopes our TOUR DATES!

    (insert "Green Acres" themesong here)

    :D

    I have the 95 boot from Missoula (amazing show with the "new" drummer, Jack Irons). Its not an official, but it says "vitalogy health club" on the cover, because they play almost every track from Vitalogy!
    I hold the pain, release me!

    may be the best audience bootleg recordings I have ever heard:

    02/05/95 - Moore Theater: Seattle, WA (Fan Club show)
    attendance: 1,400
    set:
    Jack Irons chant/Last Exit, Spin the Black Circle, Tremor Christ, Corduroy/Not for You, Animal, W.M.A., Lukin, Glorified G, Daughter, Rearviewmirror, Immortality, Blood
    enc 1:
    Satan's Bed, Black, Porch, Garden, Go
    enc 2:
    Better Man, Let My Love Open the Door

    notes: Free tickets were mailed to Ten Club members and PJ appeared as the "Piss Bottle Men." Ed speaks of how they just got their vaccinations for the Asian tour, and, while speaking of "pains in the ass," says about the "jumping thing" (moshing and stagediving) that they are "beyond that now." 'Lukin' premiers at this show. A riff from 'Baba O'Riley' is played to open 'RVM.' 'Immortality's' ending is long, lingering and soft. They pause after a ripping 'Go' for Ed to note, "So this is what the fan club looks like ..." 'Let My Love Open the Door,' a Pete Townshend cover, is played for the first time live by the whole band.

    02/06/95 - Moore Theater: Seattle, WA (Fan Club show)
    attendance: 1,400
    set:
    Release, Last Exit, Spin the Black Circle, Tremor Christ, Not for You, Corduroy, Lukin, Dissident, Act of Love, Animal, State of Love and Trust, Daughter/(W.M.A) /(Stuff and Nonsense), Improv , Whipping, Immortality, Go
    enc 1: The Kids Are Alright, Porch, Jack Irons chant/Blood
    enc 2: Jam, Satan's Bed, Rearviewmirror, Instrumental Jam
    enc 3: Act of Love

    notes: Free tickets were mailed to Ten Club members and PJ appeared as the "Piss Bottle Men." A new song/improv ('The Price of Everything' ?) is dedicated to Riz Rollins, a Seattle record store clerk and occasional funk DJ. Ed explains 'Whipping' as a song "... about getting hit in the face, turning your cheek and getting hit again. Come to think of it, all the songs are about that." 'The Kids Are Alright' is solo by Ed, accompanying himself on guitar. Neil Young joins PJ in a surprise 'Act of Love' encore.

    :shock:

    It was Ten Club originally, they changed it to VHC when Vitalogy was released, don't know if that was intended to be just short term or not, but they resumed calling it Ten Club shortly thereafter.

    I remember taping that broadcast off of 'BCN. (RIP 'BCN)...then later won a copy of the show on CD from 'BCN (RIP 'BCN), and each disc was one long track, bootlegs have come a long way.
