Today has been quite an exciting day if you are an Echo & the Bunnymen fan, I found this in my email this morning regarding their PledgeMusic drive:
“Good Afternoon!
We have some good news for you, your pre-order of the Signed CD format of ‘Meteorites’ has now become a Signed Deluxe CD/DVD format at no extra charge to you.
The new album format will contain 3 bonus demo audio tracks and a DVD featuring a ‘Making Of The Album’ mini documentary.
The release date for the album remains the same, May 26th and your album will be delivered to you in line with that.
For any further questions please contact Customer Services via the Questions section on your order.
With very best wishes,
Team PledgeMusic.”
