The vibe I get from those is simply that you can't put all of your eggs for the event happening in the Tribute Store basket
They've already sold merch online prior to announcing any event, so why can't they do it in person? It's only anniversary material so far anyhow.
But also, when every two minutes in this thread is "THE EVENT IS HAPPENING", "NO, THE EVENT IS CANCELLED", "THE SKY IS FALLING" on loop every 15 minutes, it gets exhausting repeating the same things over and over again. He's not our personal reaction machine lol.
