Q Magazine edition of National Treasures - Page 16 - Forever Delayed

I tried Preston today, early on and then again in the afternoon, they had Q, but not the special edition. I'll have a look again tomorrow. If someone else could pick up a spare for me I'd be very grateful, just in case they've sold out. I'll reimburse you, of course

Damn forgot this. I'll try tomorrow, but I'm not hopeful.

Oh well. C'est la vie.

Ordered mine online, but I'm in North America, so I have a feeling it'll be another few weeks heh. I did get a confirmation email when I placed the order!

Just bought mine! Truthfully, I think the magazine is a bit shit but the vinyl is fantastic.

I'm tempted to get on the bus to Merry Hill now to see if they have some copies!! If they have some I'll get you a copy Rel x

solidarity - i am sure the confirmation of order mail spoke of "6 - 8 weeks"? fingers crossed you and i, as well as all others outside the UK, get lucky and it arrives in decent time.

is it the same 25th Birthday Edition of Q that my Dad just brought back from the UK? if so, the magazine is not so much a bit shit as it is genuinely fucking awful. it's basically adverts and then page after page of "celebrated artists" discussing their best and worst albums of the last 25 years. the odd interesting comment in passing, but really nothing memorable.

Yay,my mum got a copy for me. The mag is shite though.

Mine says it will ship within 28 days...it's been 16 days since I ordered it, so we'll see what happens!

card debited i think but still not got it. I might just look tommorrow in smiths somewhere and see if they have em. I'm not risking them sending it out late and then it getting lost in the post

They had about 8 in Cheltenham Smiths. Probably got boxes of it 'out the back' They could have at least made it a coloured vinyl or something.
Never bought Q before. Won't be again. Just as awful as I imagined it.

Seems like all of them!

Surely thats more shops than Manics fans who buy vinyl ?

And most people who buy Q will already have bought this issue about 3 weeks ago when it came out.

I went to Merry Hill tonight and I was about to leave disapointed as I could'nt see it with the music mags when my Son spotted them on a stand alone stand by the till.

I've noticed the westfield Smiths isnt listed which surprises me. Might've missed it tho..scanning that list was hurting my eyes
