Lol you know its cause he keeps his nails long to play guitar. He should go back to the shiny nailvarnish he wore in the mid 90s. The earring too.

As for exclusive shit, I wonder if the Christmas single will be an actual new song/b-side this year.
I'm putting my money on Cold Confession and Let It Ride. If those songs were just sitting on a shelf, they wouldn't have leaked. They were moving around for some reason. This a fairly likely reason for members to be e-mailing two old demos around.

Yeah, it's like they've totally forgotten they're meant to be branding a band. You know, creative people, with imaginations.

Yet, as corporate whores, you'd think they'd really be focusing on it.

I can't really think of anything to add. The whole thing is just weird.

They're whores, just not very good ones.

I think if they were actually good at doing what they do -- that is, focussing entirely on the band and the music created by said band -- nobody would be calling them corporate whores.

I've been wondering what to get my oldest daughter, DJ, for Christmas. After watching that commercial, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna get her a Ten Club membership. It seems like a present she'll be able to appreciate for a long time.

gotta pay for that essspensive lighting rig somehow
now that 10C keeps member credit cards on file and auto charges renewals to them its like having an annuity stream
probably an opportune time to attempt to recruit new members given that there was just an album and tour and jimmy fallon brown-nose session and with all that many new potential annuity streamers
