XENOPHOBIA is on the set and it is superb!

oh man some off u people are really ...
how on earth can u complain about getting ano extra with it
ok we already have this but why coplain about or even get mad about it.
maybe they send it 2 u so u can give it 2 a friend as a holliday gift.didn't u gat the message by the npgmc mail.
let a friend play the extra ona.
eye'm very glad about it.eye don't mind that we didn't get the other c.d's because we are gonna get it annyway in the future .so stop COMPLAINING about this and that and every step prince is making.
so lets all say homer simpsons way WOEHOE!!! ona live box set is coming and lets party and freak out .and let the box bring us back 2 the concerts in our dreams.

Put yourself in Prince's shoes for a minute - which would be the smarter thing to do (from his viewpoint):
A: Send Xenophobia along with ONAL & hope it makes the members happy so they will sign up for another year.
or
B: Save Xenophobia & use it as the sign-up bonus cd for the NPGMC 2003 edition to entice old members to continue on as members.
Just a thought.

LaV, thanks for the scans

I got mine yesterday! Nice Thanksgiving present! Listening now. It was left on my deck probably by UPS so I didn't discover it till late last night.
I live in Michigan, but my friend who lives in the same area hasn't gotten hers yet.

UPS came and left - Toronto (North York) - NOTHING!!!

(I really need to proof read)

This is preplexingly odd. For those of us who have not received the set yet, note UPS Ground does not deliver Saturday and Sunday. Also, Friday was a holiday for ground service.

Anyway, I was curious in how the good ole delivery system at UPS works. Here's the deal.

There is a mail sorting location in MN. Hence the reason Lavish was the first to receive the set.

I believe I read somebody received theirs in NY. If that's true, then it means the CT plant is on the ball.(Hehehehe. That means RI and MA should see theirs this week.)

The remaining plants are MD, KY, TX, and CA.

Unfortuantely, the site does not specify the complete regional breakdown. (you know what site is responsible for what territory.) I hope this is encouraging for some.

Ciao.

mine was shipped via the US postal service, and i got mine on wednesday... a friend of mine who works at the postal service said that it had actually got there on tuesday, but they were behind with the sorting of packages...

i have expressed to the npgmc that i prefer things to be sent to my PO box, therefore they always have to use the postal service... ...

I wish I had a Post Office Box, but the waiting list is way too long.

a waiting list for a post office box..? geez... no such problem here in cullowhee, but when i lived in charleston, certain areas had that problem...

how long is the waiting list..?

It's been a while since I checked, so I couldn't give you a number or nothing...they basically told me it coult take a couple of years. Once folks get a box, they usually don't let it go.

damn... yeah... the po box is nice and all that, but it's not worth the 2 year wait...

for what it's worth (and i'm sure it isn't worth much :LOL:) mine will opening up in may... ... it'd be one hell of a drive for you, but...

happy to be getting the hell out of cullowhee...

EllisDee said:

You gonna share? :O

only if you don't mind me going through your mail...

no, i was saying that my po box will be free in may, because that's when i'll be moving out of here... ...

i just don't think it would be worth the drive for you... unless you're really, really desperate for that box... :LOL:

EllisDee said:

Nah...Letitgo...

if your mail is anything like mine, i'm probably not missing out on much... whenever i check somebody else's mail, i'm always surprised that it's really just as boring as mine... bill, bill, credit card application, crappy bulk coupons, bill, bill, bill, credit card application, credit card application, credit card protector crap, bill, bill- ooh, is that a "musician's friend" catalog... yes, the one bright spot that i find once a month in my box... ... i hate bills...
