I always get the impression that the types of fans who do things like this truly believe Ed or Jeff or Tim Bierman is going to see them and reward them for their actions.
They just hate to see it like the rest of us, but some people have a hard time acting like human beings.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

I believe the people who kiss the 10C's ass on the message pit do so because they think they will get free tickets or something. They are too naive to realize they were the people Bierman called losers in their parents basement on that call in show a few years ago. The weekly show that just was abruptly ended and never spoken of again.

Kind of an asshole move on the band/managements part
Emek X Emek
12 hours ago near Portland, OR
any good people out there want to hook an artist up (me and my artist brother who is flying in from New York) with tickets to see the big concert in Portland on November 29th? I thought the band was going to give me some tickets, but i guess they could not get any. 2 nice seats for a signed and doodled poster from that show? or trade for something else? i have not asked for tickets since i was a kid, but i thought i'd try. how embarrassing. oh well. thanks- emek

Yeah, I gotta agree on this one. Kinda surprising given that he was one of the artists they selected to make Wrigley posters.

“The band leads by example,” Bierman says. “Whether it’s a concert promoter, an usher at a show, or the fan in the back row, they are treated with respect. When you see that happening night after night, it becomes engrained in your day-to-day work. Respect for our fans is the guiding philosophy of Ten Club.

This article exemplifies everything that is wrong with internet reporting, modern business school philosophy, and the alternate reality in which the band must see the 10 Club. Thanks for that.

I wonder how blindly they actually trust the 10C. I mean Bierman got the job because he's Jeff's friend. What can a friend possibly do wrong at this job? I wonder if the 10C is a time bomb waiting to explode.

I'd bet good money the band trusts Bierman unquestioningly.

How I imagine this in my mind:
“The band leads by example,” Bierman says. “Whether it’s a concert promoter, an usher at a show, or the fan in the back row, they are treated with respect. When you see that happening night after night, it becomes engrained in your day-to-day work. Respect for our fans is the guiding philosophy of Ten Club.” Bierman then leant back and let out an uncomfortably long guffaw. "What's so funny?" I gingerly enquired. "Oh...nothing" Bierman replied, wiping away a tear.

Bierman = Bier Man = Beer Man

Obviously 'Tim Bierman' is just an all purpose alias used by whichever drunken member of the band is on the other end of the phone/computer that day.
