    Please read the entire thread before commenting.
    but it's a free country
    I'm from Sweden so I'm not part of this "free country" you are refering to - if you mean USA ;)

    Please post if somebody knows if there is a download available. I never read the email sent by TC that someone posted on this thread.

    Still, I put my TC BS in my PC and clicked on Downloads. It only connects you with the goods section for purchasing bootlegs, if I remember right. I knew that only Itunes and target version had free downloads.

    Anyway, we should do what Kat posted and send TC an email. However, if someone already has an answer it would be easier for us and TC if it were available on this thread. Thanks.

    By the way, I know it´s not the topic here. But, if an album comes out with free bonus features like concert downloads, doesn´t billboard and other album sales related institutes exclude such albums from their list? I´m curious if BS got to be # 1 despite having such versions cut out of the sales list.

    I just read it and it appears you are right. I never received that e-mail from the 10 club or saw that information posted here. I was under the impression that Target and ITunes were the only ones you could get the concert downloads from.

    I bought Backspacer through ITunes and the 2 concert downloads suck because they are not the complete shows...they removed any cover songs that were played during the concert...so you really are not missing out on anything. You are better off going to pearljambootlegs.org (not sure if that is the correct website?) and getting the complete concert.

    Ok....I have it... :wave:

    The Ten Club has not forgotten you or what was said. They're working on something. Please be patient.

    Now, I know you want more...but that's all there is....and there is no timeline on when it will happen.

    Again, your patience is appreciated.

    Have a great weekend everyone! 8-)

    Thanks Kat!

    (and my thread forced a response from 10C -weee!)



    BUT, it should be noted that waiting 30 weeks without 10club so much of giving ANY information is really weak. REALLY weak. That answer coming know (to keep staying tuned) - should have come earlier and without "us" pushing.

    At least Kat took the time to answer being that I'm sure she has nothing better to do, you know with the band touring in about a month and having to get out tickets together.

    Yes thanks Kat and do you have a bottle to give to Mr. Man as well.

    Yeah, 7 pages of bitching wasn't enough of a NOTE.

    And clearly just saying thanks is just not in your DNA.

    What's funny is that the people ripping into the OP are just as negative as he/she is. :lol:

    I thanked Kat because she(?) took her time to get info and posted it. Really nice of her(?).

    But still, 30 weeks without a word on whats happening with the "stay tuned"-deal is sort of weak according to me. So I think my "note" to tenclub concerning their handling of this is not out or order. Even if the big boss of the tenclub, or better Stone, called me up and told me "we will have something, but nothing yet" after 30 weeks I would comment on it being handled "bad"

    I don't really know why I should jump with joy and thanking tenclub without a reason (in this specific case) - but I thanked Kat. So what's the problem?`

    But to me it's really not that big of a deal. It has been a long time since I bougt the album but hasn't thought of that "bonus features" alot - but still I think tenclub could have handled it (the information first and foremost) ALOT better. And that is not taken away by the fact that they respond to Kat asking them.

    They never promised any shows from the vault. The vault never really even actually opened except for one show.
    Ten Club should have called "The Vault" "The Safe Deposit Box" instead. Who needs a vault for one show? :lol:

    I've never seen backspacer for 9.99.

    This has sort of nothing to with the topic... And I'm sorry, I should have written 99SEK (swedish krona) so that people would focus on the essence of my topic:)

    If it has nothing to do with your topic why did you mention it?

    To emphazise(sp) that I could have gooten it cheaper and faster than from 10club. 9.99 was just an example of a cheaper price, even though I buy from swedish sites so the cheapest is 79SEK (99SEK at the time of pre-ordering).

    OP, you were right, no need to apologize to anyone for anything. The only point I'd make is the use of the word "lying" in your title. All those insisting we were promised nothing and berating you because you dare to question something owe you an apology. Thanks to Kat for stepping up with an answer instead of staying on the sidelines and allowing the back and forth "bashing" to continue. If the band saw this thread, I think they'd be pretty happy with how it developed. A question, heated exchange, a weeding out of the truth from misinformation and emotional response, enlightenment, and some sort of liveable resolution. Quite democratic.
