Did you contact them and ask about the delivery status yet? I though they sent the 7" out to the US addresses first ...

sent them an email last night to see, so we shall see if they reply. I sure hope they pressed enough extras for some that possibly could have gotten lost in the mail (if that's what happened).

I emailed them this morning as well.

So I just "renewed". But I have the strangest feeling that I bought a new membership because it says my account was just created even though I signed up back last year August 2012... Anyone else have this problem?

No way am I renewing until I've got what was promised when I initially signed up - the 7". Still not received it, I ain't gonna be conned again into giving money.

I got mine today finally

Mine arrived today too.

Got mine today, cheap sleeve but looks cool  

Still not got mine.  Is anybody else considering not bothering renewing?  I never had a problem with tickets on the last tour through the various pre-sales (live nation, O2 etc) without the fan club sales.

Yeah, I don't think the member pre-sales alone are worth it. I'm in it for the pretty pretty vinyl

Haven't got mine either.. not sure I want to renew, always managed to get tickets and there doesnt seem to be many plus's at the mo. I'd be super annoyed though if something changed and the club became great! So I don't know what to do yet!

Mine arrived today so hopefully yours won't be too far behind.

I decided to renew but I don't think its very good value (more fool me eh?).  I can do without another t shirt though hopefully the vinyl will be worth having.

Hi! It's been awhile since I've been here, but I'm wondering where the link is to reapply for membership on InfiniteMerch's site.... I looked specifically under the 45 RPM Club page, and all that's listed is a per-sale link for a show in Germany. Has anyone else had this problem??

They are sending out renewal links by email, you cant access them through the website.

My 7" finally arrived, so i guess i should get on with renewing...

got mine this morning.  renewed as well.

Well my fiancee got her's but still no sign on mine dont think I will be renewing. Their poularity has dropped a bit since Handwritten so I reckon tickets will be a lot easier to come by in the UK

What makes you think that their popularity has dropped?

really??? why??? i think, if anything, they are getting a lot more popular in germany. if i think of the crowed last year at highfield festival and this year. big difference!

Just the feeling I get when talking to some people. For a while people were "into" them when Handwritten was all over the radio but nowadays its hard to strike up a convo about them. Seems like a people weren't that sold on the new album. Just my opinion though. They will always have a strong fanbase here but it's never been hard to get tickets. And after the vinyl fiasco I dont know if i'd like to renew.

Really I have the feeling it's quite the opposite. To me it seems playing all these festivals in the past really payed off for them. The crowds got bigger and more and more people know who they are and their music.

I had a couple of El Jefe postes in my office and not so long ago a colleague from another department came over and immediately recognised the band and exitedly told me that he saw them on the Frequency festival and how good they actually were. Whereas 2 years ago people would only admire the artworks but had no clue that they are actually for one band only ....
