The constant attempts at incorporating Pearl Jam lyrics into every day conversations, both real and on the Internet, has always been my #1 pet peeve with PJ fanboys.
I'm Olé with them, sometimes I don't .

Good thing Ten Club is charging $7.52 for shipping on 1 CD!
Oh wait, no, that's a bad thing. Fuck those guys.

About one minute after I downloaded MYM from the 10C, I got the email with July newsletter - and, of course, they're already promoting new merchandise. Board shorts, yo.

Why would anybody ever preorder a CD from the Tenclub in the first place? It's not gonna arrive on time. You're better off going out to a record store (ya know....like we all used to do) and buying it yourself.

It's saying it'll arrive on the release date, ha ha.
Usually the packaging is a little bit different, "for the serious collector".
Plus it's offering "exclusive video content" available day of release...

So you're paying $8 for a sticker and immediate access to some videos that will be available to everyone on youtube 2 hours later?

The amount of apparel that has come from this band the last few years is shocking. I remember being 15-16 years old and searching everywhere for a damn PJ shirt. Hard to find in 1997.

To be fair, they may be automatically charging for express shipping so you get the disc ASAP. Or maybe they are just bastards.

Not sure this is true.
Chris Cornell sounds best where Ed sounds best: solo live tours. I've been to both and I can confirm. What they've both lost in power over the years, they've gained in maturity, depth and the ability to really "sing."
I think Cornell sounds damn good on King Animal. To me he's hit and miss live. He hasn't sounded so hot for some of the Soundgarden shows but he sounded great at PJ20.

I wasn't sure where to put this, but for all the things 10c does wrong they were pretty impressive avoiding leaks here.
maybe it's a separate part of the organization.
Of course this is the one fucking thing I wish they were bad at.

The site also didn't crash with everyone on it at the same time for the end of a long countdown. The ordering process and free download were fast as well. Maybe we should start a new thread.

Clearly they missed this.
Lots of people are saying Shipping to Europe for the vinyl is only $5
Or perhaps there's just more overseas business from international members and they want to encourage that so the US fans carry the can?

Is there a chance that they are being manufactured and shipped from somewhere in the European continent? 'Cause that's kind of weird, right?
