I just got tracking confirmation that my package arrived at the origin center in New Jersey. I believe this means that that Sandbag has been blatantly lying to me and everyone else who got their bull crap "it's not our fault USPS, blah blah blah" email. I won't be ordering anything else from the NIN store. It's unfortunate that they chose to lie to me. I enjoy the music but it's not worth being lied to over and over. 

Fool me once, shame on you.

Just got the deluxe version from UPS a few hours ago. Spinning it now and it sounds like QOTSA to me. My favorite album is LC so take that for what it's worth.

Regardless of whether you like the album or not, they always deliver amazing deluxe packaging and Matador got it to me ahead of time. Trent and Sandbag could do to take some tips from them.

Has anyone actually gotten their records that have Pre-Ship Hell tracking?

I have not. Emailed Sandbag and got the standard letter. Called USPS and they were, of course, no help. Waiting two more days and then contesting the charge on my credit card. 

If memory serves, the only good thing on this album is Method Man.

They just answered everyone on their FB post. Apparently they cancelled due to scalpers and the box office at the venue pulled some shady stuff. Cool to see a band standing up against stuff like that but again I feel bad for the legit fans that got pre sale tickets and have to reschedule.

Anybody know why they cancelled the Ventura show? I'm not a fan of California but it sucks for those fans. Hearing rumors online that it was due to excessive scalping.

It's same as it was for QOTSA. You sign up for presale, link your account their with your Ticketmaster account when prompted, get put into Group 2 and then when you buy the merch it takes them some time to match your Ticketmaster acct email with your purchase email and get moved to group one. It only took a few minutes when I did it for QOTSA and Foos. Then late at night the day before the QOTSA sale I got an e-mail and a text message with presale codes.

I think the key part to having everything go smoothly is already having a Ticketmaster acct when you sign up for presale. 

I'm excited for the pre-sale. I just got QOTSA tickets for Pittsburgh this morning through their pre-sale and was super bummed when the Foo Fighters D.C. show sold out in under a minute. Wife is going to see Imagine Dragons in Cincinnati on the 21st so it looks like we'll just make a weekend out of it.
