Important Change to Ten Club Membership Benefits in Recognition of Our Move to an Early Retirement and as a result are Simply Not in the Studio all That Much These Days
Beginning January 1, 2019 the Ten Club Single will be discontinued.
We hope that you have enjoyed these special collectibles over the past 25+ years.
At first I was like "Oh man, that sucks". Then I realized they haven't done anything original for these singles in what....10-15 years? "Hey band, we got to release the Christmas single this year." "Goddamn it, that means we should get together and do something?" "No, we stopped doing that back in '98...where have you been? We just add a couple of live tracks that everyone has heard already and ship them out in April." "Hmmm...we should charge more for this perk!" "Agreed"
"Members who purchased or renewed their membership at the Analog level in 2017 and/or 2018 will also receive the limited edition vinyl for those years once physical production is complete."
So anyone signing up or renewing last year or this year (for the next few days) will still receive their single(s) some day. The 2018 single will be the last one.

Sad to see them go. I appreciate all the care time and effort it took to make and ship those out to us all. Looking forward to hopefully something new in its place. Lovely memories and I am grateful for them all. Thank you!

I always thought the annual 7" single was one of the coolest things going here. And of another era. Too bad.
I downgraded to digital. Which is a bummer because I never use digital downloads. I'm a vinyl guy. So now for $20 I have to privileged of being able to post on the forums here. Too bad there's not a "post only" option for less money. Oh well, I blown twenty bucks on worse things.

We all know that we’re in the club for the (chance at) tickets..... fingers crossed that doesn’t change.... they’d watch this place empty out.
Definitely the end of an era. We'll never get the full story, but I always wondered what the challenges were in getting two songs out on wax each year in a timely fashion. Then again I'm not in a world famous rock band, don't run a fan club for a world famous rock band, nor have I ever pressed a record.
Boo, Bad decision. Pearl Jam has been slowly but surely becoming a lame money grab nostalgia act situation by increments. It is what it is....
We all walk the Long Road...
