    Does anyone know about the baseball bat company in which Jack White and Ian Kinsler (Anaheim Angels) are involved?
    Only that they have recently been approved for MLB use.  My guess is they will catch on pretty quickly considering the name is "War Stick", and kids are not brand loyal, they will go with the hot name.  Kids jumped all over DeMarini when they entered the baseball market.  I always thought of them as softball, but I'm an old timer.  Just give me an Easton Black Magic.  
    They got a good plug last night during the Angels broadcast...the announcer mentioned the involvement of Jack White.  Ian Kinsler used to play for the Tigers, so I see the Detroit connection.

    Definitely makes sense.  I haven't seen anyone using one yet.  They need to be sold at Dicks or something like that in order to really hit it.  The bat market is competitive.  Will be interesting where they price themselves for LL.  The last Louisville Slugger I bought for my son was about $200.  Crazy.  And I think it was a year past the model.

    They have a few pros besides Kinsler using the bats. Justin Upton, his teammate in Detroit and now Anaheim, uses Warstic. Nick Castellanos, another Tiger, does as well.  Looks like they're starting to branch out beyond Detroit as Matt Kemp of the Dodgers has started swinging Warstic.

    Got an email yesterday from TMR that I was one of ten people selected for early entry to the MN show. I'm even more excited now!
    Congrats! Looks like they've notified through the end of August so I didn't luck out.

    That's good.  I hope the investment works out.  Jack definitely has some non-traditional investments!

    You've Got Her In Your Pocket is my favorite from that album.  He's been singing it alone on this tour.  His voice sounds perfect, like he's 19 years old.

    Consolers of the Lonely by the Raconteurs.  It's a tremendous album both musically and sonically.  It's pressed all analogue and sounds spectacular.  Either that or Icky Thump, which is my personal favorite WS album.

    As do I. However, I remember Broken Boy Soldiers being average at best in terms of sound quality. Not sure if I'm alone on this one.

    For me, Consolers is a superior album to BBS in every way, including sonics.

    I will be surprised if it's not on the next newsletter.
    EDIT: I'm an idiot. Once again, I thought you were talking about the PJ Vault, lol. I guess I just ignored the 37 part..... I'm sleepy. :tongue:

    Typically around the 1st of the next membership sign-up month which will be July, so I’d say this Sunday or Monday.

    Received mine today and have had it promised to someone for a while but if they don't follow through and you're interested, I'll sell it for cost ($60) plus media mail shipping to you.

    Did anyone else receive a charge for a Vault subscription yesterday? They usually don’t charge before a title/package announcement is made.

    They charge on whatever your sign up date is, regardless of if the vault has been announced or not. So if yours is on the 1st of whatever month you signed up, then that is the date you will be charged for the next vault.  But if you signed up on a different day of the month, then you need to contact TMR.

    It's important to have a renewal date after the announcement so you have plenty of time to cancel if you don't want the next Margo Price box.
