I don't normally come on the porch and hate the whining about "pj play my city" and yadi yadi yadi... i REALLY can't stand that.
but i dont think calling the 10c out on this issue is unwarranted.
the people with the deep pockets should understand that its not just the price but the principle, we basically now have to pay twice as much for our memberships in order to get a free t-shirt.
yeah, "enjoy the music" at twice the cost :?
And if you continue to pay $20 you're not getting anything other than 10C presale for the cost. This is probably useless for the majority of the members.
From my perspective, I'm only in the 10c for ticket access and they don't come here nearly as often as the States or Europe.
Believe it or not, they still go there more often than they tour the entire southern region of the USA.

I've had some time to digest this, and I've changed my tune on it. I say it's not a bad thing. Free T shirt without having to pay $20 int'l shipping? fine with me.

Believe it or not, they still go within travelling distance of Texas many, many, many more times than most other regions of the world. What if you were a South African fan?

Of course that's true and I have been fortunate to be able to travel to see them many times, but not everyone is that lucky. Pearl Jam is also an American band not a South African band. How many other American bands regularly tour in South Africa? If I enjoyed a band from South Africa I wouldn't expect them to regularly tour here.
With the exception of Austin and New Orleans last year, they haven't been a decent driving distance from Texas in a very long time...I'm talking at least a 12 hour drive to get to somewhere like Bonnaroo. Even New Orleans is over 8 hours from Dallas.

I will take the cheaper option and cheer about my pre sale rights...then I will be on ticket master because those tickets are out of stock in 2 seconds and a skeleton error message comes up
I guess I will be less of a fan :roll:
The Human Puck could never be a lesser fan!
Holla !!!!!!
As long as we live in the northeast we will never be less of a fan
The hell with all this membership talk, announce some shows in New York, Hartford and Boston already!
I'm too damn lazy to read 18 pages of posts, so maybe someone already said this...
At the VERY least, I hope 10c doesn't go & put the analog membership t-shirt up for sale on the website, or anywhere else for that matter. PLEASE give ppl who are paying for the upgrade the peace of mind that this is an exclusive t-shirt, each year. If I see my cousin walking around in the same shirt, that she bought at Target just cause she "liked all the pretty colors," I might just have a fucking meltdown. And for fuck's sake, please tell me they will ask our sizes when we renew. If this is the only "upgrade" I'm getting in the "upgrade," I sure as hell wanna be able to wear it (if it ain't shit-ass ugly).
OK, I've said my piece.
Yes, you get to select your shirt size. They range from Mens S-XXXL and Womens S-XXL.
I like my membership, I like the fact that I have always been able to get tix, and I like the vinyl. That's worth the 40 bucks to me...... sorry if it's not for all of you.
Going "analog" for sure but waiting to hear back from 10club about my account. What happens to those user's, those international paying members ,who's already paid till 2021, like myself? :oops:

I'd have to agree with this. I was mad about it at first, but it's really not that big a deal. Everyone has a choice of what to do, too.
wrong. we won't get the single or the mag mailed to us. and the people that say the complainers are so predictable, so are all the folks that come on here complaining about the complainers. pot? Kettle.
You will still get all the content you currently do. The medium is different, but the content is the same. You guys certainly have the right to bitch and moan about a band and fan club that for 20 years has done more for their fans than any other band in history. you are just wrong for doing so.

telling someone they are wrong for expressing their opinion is ignorant. I have realized that it's really not a big deal, but people have legitimate concerns, and you sit there in your tower calling it bitching and moaning. Gimme a break. :roll:

get over it people, they acted on several suggestions that the membership give more, and have more options. so Now you got em stop complaining!
You can do exactly what you did before and nothing changes, or pay 20 more and get more cool free stuff and opportunities. It is a paid club, not a free entitlement. This is not The US government where they give you everything for free for doing nothing, or even being a member

Totally random..but the avatar is just priceless
i post on the board of a band that doesn't exsist anymore .......i need my head examined.......

What have they done for us exactly? Why do some people around here seem to think that Pearl Jam are the most righteous and amazing thing that has ever existed?
Give me that friggin' record. Yes, you can get the songs for free...however, nowadays, it's the 1991 VINYL we want so bad, right? The songs are available freely, but we all go apeshit over the actual record, right?
IMO...buy that record for $20 now, so you DON'T have to buy it for $80 later on. And this way, when you get the analog membership, you also get the other stuff included as well.
But yes...it would have been nice if they threw in a $5 discount at the online store.
