i love the IDEA of the 10c...i have been a member since 03...and yet...time and time again...the club let's me down.

1. Can't seem to get the holiday cd near any holidays...

2. Can't get stickers in a reasonable amount of time (why sell them if they are not ready)

3. Can't get my pre-sale purchased super delux box o crap on the day the rest of the world can go buy them...

4. And finally...entered my credit card information FOUR FUCKING TIMES...and lost out on tickets.

The band should be ashamed of the manner in which it conducts this club. Without them we would not have PJ..and without us, no one would care about PJ....i get told over and over how great 10c is...and how i just shouldn't join if i don't like it. How about the 10c is held accountable for SOMETHING...

    As a paying customer of this fan club. One of their promises is to make tickets available to us and dealing with the mess i dealt with today not only makes me bitter over the fan club but even the music itself.

    10C doesn't have to do all the stuff they do for us. Be thankful they do a pre-sale for us. Be thankful the band gives us a fan club single.

    How does he have an overblown sense of entitlement? He pays money to a business (Tenclub) but doesn't receive what he paid for when he should. Seems like a legitimate complaint.

    Paying a yearly membership fee does not entitle anyone to tickets when they go on sale...read the fine print. Having a membership provides you the "opportunity" to obtain tickets via the bands pre-sales. No where does it say you'll get tickets every time.

    (And if you're wondering, I didn't get tickets)

    Yeah I know about the tickets but that doesn't explain why the Holiday Single is always late, or why pre-ordered items arrive AFTER the release date or, why I haven't received my Orpheum digital download yet.

    Yeah, agreed! I mean, I'm not annoyed per se that I got shut out for tickets. As was said above, small intimate venue and a lot of demand. What pisses a lot of us off is that the server cannot handle the demand (for the past 8 years now) resulting in tickets being "removed" from our carts. Yes, removed. I and several others got a message saying tickets were removed from our carts after trying to go through the checkout process. How is this right? This isn't a new problem and yet 10c continues to ignore it.

    Agree on some things. I am very thankful for the ticket presale, though I do think it could be better. Losing tickets from your cart after entering your CC info because the server is slow does kinda hurt. I feel bad for people that missed out on shows when they thought they were good to go.

    But, as for the fan club single...I stopped even caring about it at all because of the ridiculous delivery time. But please stop with the "gives us"...it's part of the package with a PAID membership. They aren't giving us anything.

    Kudos for the "sense of entitlement" comeback.

    I've been a member for 15 years and have had ZERO problems with 10c. Sure, it might be nice to receive your holiday single during the holdays, but think about how difficult it is to manage a club with as many members as 10c. Things aren't always going to go smoothly, but the good definitely outweighs the bad. We are lucky to be involved in a fan club that offers so many great perks to its members and really does reward seniority (thanks to 10c I was front row, dead center for Seattle 9/22/09). I can pretty much guarantee it's far easier for us to get tickets through 10c presales than through TicketBastard. As a counterpoint to your frustrating experience, Seattle tix showed up on the screen at 2:03 and after hitting refresh a few times, I was able to purchase my pair and have a confirmation email in my inbox at 2:06.

    If the problems you're experiencing are such a deal breaker, save yourself the $20/$40 membership fee and try your luck with the scalpers.
