10c Membership should I renew? Thoughts?
Just putting the question out there. I am not really into the bootlegs to be honest, and the TShirt last year really sucked (IMO) Never wore it, never will, most people do not even know what "Deep" is and i would have been really uncomfortable wearing it.
In prior years I really enjoyed it with great poster's, patches, buttons and a wearable shirt.
Does anyone know what this year will behold? (My renewal come up in January) I know it may seem "cheap" but I live in Canada so any exclusive merch online is way too expensive to ship here now, and the last 2 shows I went to I really did not get any 10C benefit, and in fact got better seats for Toronto at a decent price with TicketMaster (I was rather shocked by that)
Anyone else in the same boat, or is it just me?
Honestly appreciated, nastiness not
Cheers,

It sounds like it comes down to concert tickets for you. Either you want to pay $20/yr (digital version) for the chance at Ten Club tickets or want to take the risk not to.
If you are a traveler for the band then stay in. If you are in it for just shows in Toronto (or nearby), then you'll probably end up paying $60-$80 for the privilege to buy Toronto tickets.
It seems like for the most part there are rumors before tours are announced so you can just not renew and then when the rumors seem legit (like they were for this Europe tour) you can get a new membership.

This is my general thoughts also.. If you have a lower number lower than 145,000, please do not renew. If it's higher than that, do whatever you want.

For me the last singles are not on the same Level as the older ...
Most years I dont bother, like many said, usually not worth the 2 minutes of time it takes to do it for the shirts we get.
I will probably be switching for that reason, because I am basically paying $20 for the xmas single. I could get it for less than that if I switch to digital.
