I got mine today. Everything's great, but Tom's premium is the best of the lot. Yay for stuff in the mail!
I'll probably go into the wee hours.

I would just like to reiterate:

a) Fuck you all.
b) This is bullshit.
c) What the fuck?
d) Yeah, yeah. I pledged so that WFMU can stay on the air and it's not really about the merch. I'm just glad to be able to help out.
e) That was a total lie. I want my fucking schwag now!!!!

I'll accept your snarky comments when you establish yourself on this message board, young man.

I think blaming Manhattan mail carriers is the only obvious solution to your issue.

That, or blaming Matador Records who, while they might not have anything to do with your marathon swag, are clearly putzes.

This has crossed my mind, and is the most obvious an upsetting answer. I would bet money that there is a box with my name on it in some corner of the 42nd Street post office.

I like this notion better. Who wants to join me for a burning of Cat Power's Jukebox tomorrow?

If the idea is to cause shame, pain, or general discomfort in a Cat Power-related way, I think all Matador employees involved with the Jay Reatard 7" fiasco should be forced to actually sit down and watch that 4-hour-long DVD of her sitting in the woods and playing an acoustic guitar in its entirety. That'll teach them to waste my time!

I'm in the same boat as Forrest, except I live in California.  It sucks.

I was thinking maybe they're sending them out in some sort of alphabetical order, but my last name comes near the end of the alphabet so I should've been one of the last.

Maybe they have to space it out for financial reasons. The postage for my package was almost $9, so multiplying that times the number of comparable pledgers adds up to a lot of money quickly.

Anyway, I'm sure you guys will get your stuff very soon. I wouldn't be surprised if you get it today. It's worth the wait just to hear Patton's Daniel Plainview impersonation.

I got mine yesterday!

On Patton's CD, he goes into another bit about KFC famous bowls, and acts out the sign language symbol for ordering one. This, of course, doesn't translate well to the CD format. Can anyone describe what he's doing onstage? Anyone seen him do this lately?

I got mine yesterday. It was like a glorious belated Father's Day present or an early birthday present. The Scar-Face shirt is incredible.

My pack arrived today. I am a pig in swill right now. Literally rolling around in it until a Cherry Blossom Clinic pin got stuck in my shoulder.
