Yeah, but not even an approximate date or anything.
Super weird IMO.

on twitter they said they are restocking 3 of her albums for the anniversary of Idler Wheel. Then seems they are capitalizing on that by following that up with a tweet saying sign up for the waitlist. i bet they don't have a date yet from the plant but want to drum up excitement.

as far as i know they have NEVER done a press-to-order situation and they know this one will be coveted. none of the fionas have been limited at all.

Yes, there's no way this will actually be limited. Too much money would be left on the table. I expect this to be like the others and just pressed in batches.

with how backed up plants are, maybe they are using the waitlist get an idea for the next repress already haha

No total pressing quantity listed. I wonder if they're waitlisting it to see how many they actually want to press, instead of throwing out an arbitrary number like 1000 or 2000. This was in pretty big demand, so probably seeing if they should press like 2000-5000 instead.

This is my guess. Also kinda want it on black vinyl so it's like all my other albums in her discography
 
So here's the official explanation from Pauly.

For some Context:
We did this with the Euphoria repress that we did, and its because we don't have an exact timeline on when it will ship. Its far out currently, and long pre orders, possibly followed by delay emails, are never fun.
We are trying out this method, where you can add yourself to the waitlist, so once we have a timeline, and we can put it up for sale, you will receive an email about it.
Let me know if that helps clear things up or not. Sorry for the confusion!

Basically, looks like they'll drop it when available and in stock so people stop bitching at CS.

don't blame them. none of the fiona's have been limited at all though. every single one has gotten repressed. they seem to have a good relationship with fiona and have exclusive but open runs as long as people want them.

The only bummer is if I sign up today to hopefully grab it but my 3 month ends before they put it on sale then I'm out of luck.

If they preorder without a date, people will flood CS with "WHEN IS IT GOING TO SHIP" questions, I'm guessing this way they'll have a firmer idea on when it will actually be ready to ship to avoid strain on the employees.

or just wait to announce it? also seems like kind of a way to keep members "hostage"....don't want to miss out on the drop if you're not a member!
 
Im confused, so the Extraordinary Machine isnt out yet?

Also, they have the latest Miles Bootleg (standard release) @stpaulbrowns
