I'm at work and won't know until later on. My guess is NO bc we have the WORST Post Service of any city in the country.

    Yep, got mine yesterday..... I downloaded it after hearing my vinyl would not be here by release date, even though the record shop I frequent has a box of them.

    I love PJ but Im not about to pay twice for the same album.

    Sorry 10C, bad business.

    so instead of being patient, you went agaist the band's wish's and illegally downloaded it.

    sorry ofthegirl, bad call.

    Mailman came and went and no cd. Sucks that it has actually passed over Chicago area and has been delivered even farther East. Guess the farther away you live the sooner you get it.

    Shit. I was hoping for a nice surprise in the mailbox when I got home from work. Hopefully it will be there tomorrow for a great start to the weekend.

    Those in Philly and Virginia had theirs mailed a day earlier.
    zip codes 0-3 mailed Monday
    4-6 mailed Tuesday
    7-9 mailed Wednesday

    No album for me..I live near St.Louis,Mo...

    I really truly find it hard to believe that my album was sent off Tuesday...I could be wrong?...But, sure seems like four days is a long time for shipping from Seattle,Wa..Thats if it shows up in the mail tomorrow?

    Hope it comes in the mail tomorrow...

    In my experience it takes at least a good five days or so minimum to send or receive anything from here to the west coast or vise versa unless it is overnighted, 2nd day air, etc.

    Hopefully I am pleasently surprised though since again, people farther east have already received theirs.

    so three confirms and one negative. i like my chances. :lol:

    if i get it, i'd invite given to fly over to listen to it, but it appears he is a cubs fan and i have a strict limit on the number of cubs fans allowed in my house. :mrgreen:
