Pearl Jam Is Discontinuing Their Ten Club Single Subscription Series

Back in 1990, Pearl Jam established Ten Club — a fan organization that grew out of Mother Love Bone Earth Affair with the purpose to give back to fans and create a community around music. Nearly 30 years later the group is still going strong, giving fans access to newsletters, band-curated magazines, concert tickets, limited-edition merch and more. However, one of those perks — the Ten Club Single subscription series — is getting the ax this year.
The band broke the news in a post to fans on their website. Read it in full below.
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.
All members who purchased or renewed their membership in 2017 and/or 2018 will still receive the MP3 downloads of the Ten Club Single for those years. 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.
Pearl Jam and all of us at Ten Club appreciate the loyalty and dedication from our members. It has been amazing to watch the fan club evolve over the years into the tight-knit community it is today, and we’re excited to see what the future holds.
Thank you,
Pearl Jam & Ten Club
Although the news isn't a great way for hardcore Pearl Jam fans to begin 2019, the band is rumored to be headlining Woodstock's 50th anniversary festival this summer alongside Foo Fighters, and if that proves true fans certainly have something to look forward to this year.
