True talk: I have two memberships; my brothers and mine and I renew both each year. The numbers are 1 apart. So I'm spending $40 a year for two memberships I might never use again. Hmmmmmm.

But think of all the charities they're helping with that money.

Here's a tip: If you think a band's terrible, don't pay to be in their fan club.

Seems pretty simple doesn't it?

I gotta say if you give actual money to a fan club, you probably cede the right to say anything bad about them. Its like the opposite of voting.

no. but there's a fanclub of the pearl jam fanclub. It's called 10C and they'll send you real neat 10C stickers every year.

10c merchandise is absurd.

True story: Last month I was looking for a white shirt to wear to an annual drunkards cricket game that I play in and I managed to pull that particular shirt down from the very back of the cupboard. Took 1 look at it and couldn't bring myself to wear it as I couldn't be bothered having to try and explain it all day.

It went into the good sammy's bag and last weekend I saw some old Aboriginal guy wearing it the park. More charity work for PJ.

That's the entire premise of the Pit.

This is the entire premise of RM. The jilted Ex.

I prefer the term "cash grab" to "money grab".

Carry on.

CopperTom · Post by **CopperTom** » Mon April 14, 2014 4:50 pm

Unfortunately, the gap between the positivity of the Pit and the negativity of RM is at all time high. I liked it better when I considered RM the realistic point of view rather than the negative point of view.

What about the roadies, 10C staff, etc. Maybe the band wants to keep the machine going because they feel obligated and care about the people who have helped them.
I could just read this all day long.

you think you know and like to speculate and criticize, but you really have no idea in the end.
Holy shit. I *do* like to speculate and criticize! I like the living SHIT out of it!

How did you do that? Do you...I mean...are you spying on me?

would that make you feel better about yourself?
