I was cleaning out my desk drawers and I found an old PPU mailing. I'm not sure about the date, but I'm guessing fall 2000. It was the fan issue or whatever and there's a whole bunch of posts from the CC and fan poems and such. A lot of good memories.

Is there a site where they have old PPU issues? There should be.

I still wonder to this day what the HELL the Media Play stores were offering if you bought SM from them.

I already head it......so I didn't buy another one to see what the free bonus cd was.

Anybody know?

did you get the IMAGINE single?. I know people said they didn't get either.
the last thing I got from them was the letter from GLOBSON and the Our Lady Peace poem lamented.
I did get the RBY single. I know from when I joined(in97) I got the video tape with the OLP poem read by sol and holiday greetings

the singles for Julia(piano) Imagine and RBY
I got the Happiness Postcards as I called them and about 6 newsetters
plus the posters, t-shirt( when renewed) and signed photo. I gave away the t-shirt(2nd time) , photo and poster.

I owe alot to the PPU. They were very instrumental in my seeing OLP in Canada on the World's A Blister tour :cry:

( happey tears)

Oh The memories. I think they were one of the better fan clubs, but I think the Happiness and SM CD's brought alot of fans for a small operation. I was in the 500's I think-when the PPU shut down there were well over 11oo fans I think.

The only thing I know you got with SM (if you bought it in the US) was a live CD. It was Car Crash and Clumsy from the CLub Tour. In Canada you got the OLP togue when you bought it. Unfortunately I bought my CD in Canada too early fot the touge( I did win one off ebay for $5.00) and my friends worked in a record store and gave me the llive cd.

with Gravity you got a live CD also. I can't remember the songs on it. I think it was Whatever, Starseed, Naveed and 4AM. I don't remember because Igot alot of OLP CD singles from overseas and that stuff is on there also.

I actually waited almost 1 year before joining. I joined only cause there was no press down here, nothing on the radio.It was the only way I would get info on the band. I am glad I did join.(hugs her membership card :love:

)

I owe alot to the PPU, and Much Music for helping me stay updated on OLP. This was way before I got on line or anything like that.

I am too. . . :cry:

When I first started becoming enough of a fan to go online and stuff I was just about to join it. . . but then I realized that every single site I went to that mentioned it hadn't been updated since pre-gravity. . . then I read on olp.net that it was dead. :crying:

olp.net sort of took over for the PPU. It was suppose to be the on-line fan club. That is why it came out around the Gravity Era.

AnnieDreams · Post by **AnnieDreams** » 5/5/2004, 4:55 pm

yeah, but olp.net doesn't give you cool stuff just for joining :roll:

lemonphile4 · Post by **lemonphile4** » 5/5/2004, 7:17 pm

No and they don't really update either.

Post by **xjsb125** » 5/5/2004, 10:16 pm

When the band is on tour, .net usually stays up to date. I'm sure when the next album drops, Stace will have some cool stuff on there. *hugs Stace*

exactly what matt said :lol:

stace doesnt update when the band isnt doing anything band related :lol:

lemonphile4 · Post by **lemonphile4** » 5/5/2004, 10:21 pm

I know there isn't much to put on there right now. But it'd be cool if there was a new calendar or something. It's all right though.
