My feeling is to unite in not signing up--in the long run, I think it will help the cause. I have been a Propaganda member since '90, and I too was screwed in the 1st leg fan presale (I did get the keychain), but Larry made it up to us in the 3rd leg and I got floor seats for both LA shows, and got into the ellipse both nights--I honestly think my floor tickets were weighted in favor of me winning the ellipse lottery, but who knows. So, in the end, it was very worth it.
But now, they explicitly say in the Email that this sub does not have anything to do with future presales (nor do they sya this sub will bear fruit throughout the year (the way Propaganda used to), so in essence, it is $32 for fancy packaging of something we can already get assuming we bought the DVD's (very easy to rip audio tracks from a DVD)...oh, and screensavers.
8 tracks???????????? I mean, at the very least offer the whole concert. Back in the day, Propaganda offered 4 issues of a really cool mag plus periodically you would get rare remixes, and in '97, we got most of the Mexico Popmart concert. I think if they do not get a lot of subs on this offer it may force them to offer something actually worth the price of the sub. For now, I think I may hold off, although I am tempted, only because I have a feeling that by extending the sub it will entitle you to first bite of the apple for future tours, even thought they are saying it does not.
By the way, here's an idea--WILL CALL!!!!!!!!!! That is the best way to do fan presales--hold all tix at will call until the day of the show. Upon recieving tix with proper ID, you must enter the venue. Simple. This all but eliminates scalpers from fan tickets.
Anyway I'm still on the fence, but leaning towards not re-upping.
