Did an Irish address give you a problem?


Nope, worked fine for me about ten minutes ago.


Ordered copies of this years and last, interesting no shipping charges?

The $15 price tag probably has something to do with that.
i can do you a copy of last years CD if it doesn't ship with it.

Cheers, I'll see how I get on.

The $15 price tag isn't too bad, it's about €11, when I pay about €8 for a copy of Word or Mojo...

The was an older issue at about $60 :shock:

If you subscribe for a year, they'll send you last year's music issue and the cd as a gift.

Got the last issue at Hollywood Borders today -- had to really search the magazine section to find it, too.
On the other hand, price was $9.95, pretty much what I'd been paying for Mojo before I went cold turkey two issues ago.
Subscription price is $19.95; two years for $30. Pretty good deal, even if -- like Goldwax -- you hate The South.

Hate to say it, but I'm not that big a fan of their regular issues.


I wasn't going to bite on that one either, even though the subscription was only $5.00 over the cost of the one issue and there are only about four issues/year. I will be on the lookout next year for the next music issue.

On a related topic, there isn't a music magazine out there that I want to read every month anymore. The closest any of them come is No Depression. Even the jazz magazines don't do it for me anymore on a consistant basis. I'm a picky mother fucker.

This year's issue along with last years arrived today, with CDs.

$30 dollars, which all told wasn't bad considering the postage to Ireland was $19.

Looking forward to some time to read them now :-)

10th Anniversary issue- with two CDs- one the soundtrack to the current issue, one related to articles in previous editions- is out now. I just got it at Barnes & Noble for $10.

You'd be crazy not to, really.
