I've been a member since it opened for business as it were... on the whole it's been pretty good to me opportunity wise but it's gone a bit lame since Mark left.

Should I renew mine? Is it worth it? Mine expired in September or something.

Last I heard was that there was content from Alex and Paul due for inclusion, hence the delay. However that was a looooooong time ago - think before FFG folded.
Who knows now, it's quite sad that Mark had to give it up as he actually did a bloody decent job at it.

They're comin out with a new single "The Lobster Quadrille" on the new Alice in Wonderland soundtrack. Anybody heard of it? The album is coming out in March. Here's the track listing! Looks like a good line-up IMO bit.ly/AlmAlcOST

I see where you're coming from, but I honestly don't agree. I'm not that into owl city either (all I've ever heard is fireflies) but I'm very happy that Franz is getting promoted like that! (and I've been an All-American Rejects fan for years, so I like that they're both on the cd. although, now that I'm on that topic... the AAR fans these days can be quite annoying. and I don't like their song for the soundtrack that much. unlike The Lobster Quadrille. I love that one!)

Just about sums it all up the shit thats going on feelings wise with the band J tbh.
Mark asked us to do the diary, thought it would be a lovely idea etc surely the best tribute to him would be for it to be published? Also this digital fanzine nonsense goes against the whole reason Mark asked the band if he could start the fan club. he wanted a TRADITIONAL fan club - where you get a physical fanzine to hold in your hand.
EDIT:
Absolute Bollocks and personally a bit of A) a cop out and B) an insult to Mark's aims. Fuck knows where the fan club is going... either down the drain or down the pan

So what if there's a few extra copies of the fanzine knocking about in a storeroom somewhere - Madness had 200,000 copies of their first one in a cupboard because their manager thought they could shift em in newsagents Its all bollocks - the environment excuse is a cop out - ever heard of recycled paper?! I just view it as insulting to Mark and his vision.... like I say, old school fan with all the right ideas.
I'd rather they just jack it in if this is where it's headed tbh

What reason do they have for not putting a magazine out in the UK? It doesn't make any sense, why are we excluded. Or are we? Have i read it wrong? It's sad if they're not doing anymore magazines. Like someone already pointed out, the novelty of the magazine was the best thing about the club. x

It is really sad to see how everything seems to collapse. Many people still see this band as their "heroes"... but what do real fans get from them? A shity digital fanzine. It's not fair. If they ain't doing anything new with quality they shall better stop for the sake of it.
