  4. it doesn't surprise me, it doesn't bother me. It will come sooner or later. It's a gift and I'm glad it's a nice gift. I got my (JT) tickets, that's what I subscribed for. Paying 25 euro's on customs for a gift is another thing though, that's just ridiculous.

    Didn't they do a thing a few years ago where they told everyone to wait until the beginning of the year?

    And most people were on the same cycle?


    Correct. My accounts were running October and December and then got extended both to Dec 31, and then again to Jan 31 that one year where they just weren't able to announce any gift at all so nobody resubscribed, there was also no tour in sight so they had to do something to keep the people. Luckyily for people like me that meant I never had to resubscribe forced to get a presale code or whatever. Some people already have their accounts running until 2021 or so, because of these forces.

    at least your timeline is finished, but majority is still waiting...
  7. What was the musical surprise? The liner notes vid?
  8. If it was I’m disappointed. It said for resubscribers though so you’d think that would mean only people who resubscribed from when the announcement was made but it seems every subscriber has access to the video.
  9. The musical surprise has to be the BBC concert
  10. Nope: Its The Edge pan flute tapes. Lost in a move between mansions, the pan flute tapes were recently unearthed in an Irish bog. Coming 2018.
  11. I just got a post notification. Could this be the day?
  12. The musical surprise is Edge playing Stuck In A Moment on the spoons.
