Got My Premium...Thank You, Thank You, Thank You

Last night I got home from work and there was a box by the door. I was VERY excited.

But it was something for my wife. That package was a total jerk to do that to me.

I threw it in the garbage.

You did right.

did you kick it for me?  kick it.

Your wife will understand once TOM arrives.

I bet he did kick it.  A man can't resist a woman telling him to destroy something on her behalf.  It's hard-wired into us.

I saw the UPS truck today. And then I saw it go right past my house. 

Does anyone much of your pledge do you have to pay before they send your stuff? Or how many monthly payments? I did the $30 and change a month payment option for a Mouse Pledge.

Got mine! Thanks Tom & Friends!

I especially like that the album is named both "TOM" and "DOG"

[lisajanepersky]

Came home to premium sitting on my desk. A little choked up at seeing Dogmo but so happy to have the picture. Love, Love, Love Ted Leo cover of The Back Seat Of My Car. Going to enjoy all of it now. Oh, Double You Eff Em You. 
Goosebumps.
Sigh.

[Spoony]

Thanks, yesno!

It means a lot to me that you liked it.

GOT IT. So glad. Thank you to everyone who was part in getting all of it together!

I look forward to my wife (who has never heard Cherry Blossom Clinic) wearing the shirt outside and having some stranger come up to her and talk to her about the show. 

[eljezel]

Got it yesterday!  The shirt is great, the bag is great, but the TOM cd is amazing!  I had Ram on vinyl for years without fully discovering how great it was(just played the hits).  When Tom announced his plan to do a full cover of the album it led me to finally dig in and then subsequently kick myself for not doing it sooner.  So to now have a tribute version of it with some indie luminaries is the icing on the cake!   It's all genius, but some standouts are Death Cab, Dump, and the Stones Throw Singers. 

Thanks Tom for always putting so much into this amazing show.  It never ceases to amaze me that you pull it off every week, let alone put together these premiums!

every time ive pledged, its necessary that i make payments; last year i remember clearly that i had to make at least three payments before they even considered sending my premium.  

for a mouse pedge, you shouldve received it by now, but these things are being assembled and sent out by hand; patience is the key in this case.

Got mine Monday, and I've been too busy enjoying it to post that I got it.  Amazing, Tom.  And I feel bulletproof with that card in my wallet.  Am I really?  Probably not, but until told otherwise, I'm going to assume I am.

[steely damn]

Can you tell me if the premiums are coming via USPS or UPS?  I am overly excited about it and I need to know if I should be excited when the mail comes or when the UPS man arrives.  Thanks!  

I got mine from the USPS.  Start camping by the mailbox.

Hmmm. WANT IT NEED IT WANT IT but 3 questions:
• as I've heard some are getting theirs by USPS and another said UPS um, are things going out under multiple carriers? I had a UPS delivery slip on the door yesterday, and there's no chance I'll be home for the last delivery attempt...
• I was pretty sure that last year I got all my mouse pledge premiums at the same time. Based on the above please tell me that the SSD commemorative plate is holding the order up.
• If this gets sent back to WFMU I would be more than willing to come down personally and get my swag as actually going from my office in Manhatten to JC is easier than going out to the UPS depot in Brooklyn where I live. Is that possible?



any insight would be deeply appreciated!

[masterofsparks]

I haven't heard any mouse donors speak up on this thread, so I'm assuming the premiums for the mouse pledgers have not gone out yet.

I got mine last year via USPS so I don't know if other carriers are used.

As for other premiums holding up the delivery of your stuff, sometimes they'll ship delayed items later. They did this last year with my SSD premium.

i hope so.  the last two years ive made the $1,000 (not braggin') pledge; last year i only opted for the best show swag.  this year i went all out and grabbed 17 premiums..ew brother.
