There's no way I can, seeing as I'm not in the Ten Club. But really, I think an extra $150 is a little much for 32 extra pages.

So is safe to assume this is what the birdy was bitching about, right?

Well 10 has been re-released on 180g in Europe, and is nice and cheap to.

$200 is too much for me. Hell, I think $50 is too much for me for a picture book. I doubt there is much more than just the pictures of the posters, no words or explanations. It'd be nice but I might just buy it used down the road for cheaper.

50$ is a lot of money for me right now but I might actually buy this. Their concert artwork really is amazing

$200??? :shock: There's gotta be something more than 30+ extra pages and a signature to fork over that much dough, even if you really love concert art, which I do. I love that the cover is the DC 2003 poster, though. :nice:

I'm usually a sucker for anything that PJ officially releases, but I think I'll draw the line here. I have most of the posters for shows that I've attended anyway.

: ( feeding 5. my girl will be going to college. if things were different I would get this. I'd also get the posters I'd had in my cart before reason took over and I exited the site. I'm not even going to look at Synergy.

I'd poney up for music as that's a necessity, but someone else can enjoy these and not be burdened!

Hmph. $200...

In an alternate universe where I've got a decent job, I'd be on this in shot. But It's just too damn expensive...

let me know when you find that universe :roll:

Then you'll have to "flag" it a la George Costanza.

This is why 10C members were supposed to have their memberships updated? :shake:

Sounds cool, but I'm tight for money right now. If I weren't, I'd spring for the cheaper one.
