Magnolia Record Club

Yeah, if they were going to go this route they should have announced it when they announced Isbell and Mt Joy. As you said, most everyone had preordered this but I was all but certain this would be there choice anyway.
I’m betting that there are not a lot of their members that had this preordered. I mean she’s a big deal to us, but not necessarily to the public at large. I’m still a little like why was Mt Joy a big enough deal for them, Isbell made sense to me.

I absolutely think you are right. Magnolia's demographic is not the Phoebe Bridgers of the world, so as you said this will probably be a suprise to most members. Mt. Joy is bigger than I give them credit for, I mean they sold multiple nights out at the Ryman. As long as they aren't sending me comps to many times, then I will keep subscribing.

I get that with Mt Joy, it’s just weird to me that the band that is touted as toured with Rainbow Kitten Surprise is that big.
 
My Isbell is very warped. Emailed in for a replacement. Bummer, but I'm sure they'll treat me right.


Finally got my Isbell package in the mail and.........slight warp as well. haha.

I'll send an email out to them.



Edit:
Well, it appears USPS must have sat these in the sun the entire month they were missing, because the Brian Dunne record is warped the exact same way. Pffft.

I'll echo that. Disappointing to be sure. I presume my Isbell replacement is in the same predicament
This seems like a new problem with them. Mine has been over a week now as well. I know it's most likely a covid issue, but I put in orders so many different places, and 90% come rather quickly now...the exceptions are Magnolia and the crap shoot known as VMP.
 
I got my Isbell replacement a few days back. Not nearly as bad as my first, but not flat by any means.


Bummer. I just received an email that replacements for both of my May records will be shipped out shortly. I can handle a little warp if it still sounds fine, but I'm not regularly putting my stylus on a record that looks like a matterhorn ride at the carnival.
