    Coming to think of it, I probably should have exploited that and bought a bunch of subscriptions last year for the pre-sale codes, then punted off the excess gifts on eBay.
    It's funny, I let my subscription slip and missed that gift. I've been trying to get it on ebay, but I use the subscription price as my bar... I won't pay more than that.

    Dozens did that.

    And yeah, it's pretty absurd to pay over the cost of a subscription.
  3. I will have a few duplicates as well, will probably give one away here on the site. You heard it here first

    can't you re-subscribe then?
    it will activate your account again.. I think it's better than pay for it on ebay and you will have a presale code for the next leg that go onsale..
  5. Yeah if you resubscribe now you should still get the gift (plus, some pre-sale code probably!)

    I meant the gift awhile back. 2012, I think. Between tours. It was the one time I let my membership lapse. I'm active now.
  7. From the Ground Up hardcover was nice.

    I think I'm going to buy more subscriptions so I can get extra vinyls and sell them on eBay for travel expenses (and a new camera or some lenses).
  9. oh.. ok!
    which gift was that year?
  10. Actually it was 2010, artificial horizon

    And opportunity for more tickets
  12. Can you believe it? After the vinyl arrived, I started reading North Side Story...!

    In fact I am very amused with Adam's tour diary of the 4th October leg (across USA)
    - didn't someone here attended the West Palm Beach gig? Adam says this about it:

    I felt a lot better about the gig that night; we definitely made a big impression on the crowd.
    My own performance was the first one of this US tour I have been totally happy with. I think
    I'm rising to the challenge and finally enjoying myself.
