Please send an email to the address from your Matador Store Registered email address. If you're one of the first people to email, you will receive a confirmation email and a buy link for the 7" will appear on the Matador Store when you log in.

where did y ou copy that from? i've seen this:

On Tuesday, at 3pm EST we will reveal an email address on preorder.matadorrecords.com

Please send an email to the revealed address with “Jay Reatard” as the subject line. Those that email us in time to get a record will see a buy-link appear in the store when they log into their account within the hour. Make sure to send an email from your Matador Store registered email address. To be clear, sending an email DOES NOT ensure that you’ll get a copy…

We have even fewer copies of this 7″ than we had of the last one so we’re taking these extra steps to ensure that everyone gets a fair shake at getting a copy. That means less server lock-up, no waiting in the checkout line, and (hopefully) less confusion in general. Good luck!

doesn't mention the confirmation email...

come again?

[Hewletts Daughter]

it's on the actual order page for the 7"

[Pavement Ist Rad]

me and my brother are hoping they give us free copies because we sent it from our gmail accounts which is some serious domain cred

Bullshit, I remember when gmail invites were like "ooh" but naaah. My email is from a paid domain.

I might be crazy, but I think I got a Gmail invite from SG or Dan or somebody here.

Remember when the entire board shut down so that everybody could (fail to) buy Strokes tickets for their Park West show? The internet rules.

so will they at least email us to say we're not the lucky few to have gotten this?

i don't want to be left IN THE DARK

It's just you're tendency for ALWAYS WANTING MORE

[Simakos]

i'm just waiting for something to happen...

[yancy]

Confirmation email received. Cha-ching.

[Undercooked Sausage]

hahaha remember when Hewletts Daughter, Paves, and myself went to The Park West and waited forever to get said tickets to said Strokes show? Amazing, wasnt dave with us too? amazing day

[Bangs]

Confirmation email received. Cha-ching.

Yancy, do you have the headers on your original email for what time you got through to Matador?

[Undercooked Sausage]

i just figure whoever would actually get an email would have to be like 10 miles from matadors server

[yancy]

j/k, I have a bad feeling about this one.

[paramedicfetus]

j/k, I have a bad feeling about this one.

damn... i was almost hoping that i could go on with my day knowing that I wasn't going to get it. now i have to just sit here... clicking "check mail" every 30 seconds.

HEY GUYS I JUST GOT AN EMAIL IT WAS FROM JAY RETARD HIMSELF

I did too. But then I got one from Stephen saying to disregard Jay's email b/c he was just being an asshole and sending out bogus info. Sucks to be yall.

[Undercooked Sausage]

i just fucked your mom.

[yancy]

What are the odds that none of us get one? Kind of unfair considering the world wouldn't know of Jay Reatard if not for this thread. Marty/tattoo/pong's one lasting contribution to society.

[Burz]

got one!

[paramedicfetus]

finally --- no bs this time

CONGRATULATIONS: You get Record #5

This email confirms that you will be able to purchase the 5th Jay Reatard single.

Please give us about 30 minutes for the servers to get back up to speed so we can dump in your email address. After that, you should be able to log in to your Matador account and buy 1 7" whenever you want.
Thanks for participating in this and we hope you enjoy your record.
Take care,
Matador Records

[Undercooked Sausage]

they should just cut to the chase and say "we hope you enjoy ebaying your record" anyway congrats you two
