To everyone that ordered pre order bundles.
As you know, I am doing everything over here at Gumshoe Records myself including the pre order. First there was a bit of a delay and I didn't have the physical cds in my hand until yesterday. Drove down to Phily at 7am yesterday and right back to the Gumshoe/Mad Merch HQ with them to pack the orders. Also, I was expecting to sell about 100-150 bundles and because you are all so amazing, I sold 750. First try and think of how long it takes to pack all of those by hand, then try and think how long it takes to write out 750 shipping labels and weigh them all for postage. Sign 750 posters, Print and fold 750 shirts etc.. It takes a while. I have been pulling 20 hour days in the warehouse trying to get them out and I will. The last of them will be out tomorrow and most US orders should arrive by the end of the week. Also, we were taking orders until Sunday night, which obviously couldn't get anywhere until today.
I'm sorry a million times for the incovenience. I know you don't pre order something expecting to get it 4 days after the record comes out, but I hope you guys can understand and hang on tight for a couple of days. In the meantime, the record is up on Spotify now and you can listen there as much as you want to hold you over until your bundle arrives.
Thank you guys so much
