    A review of the performance on Stereogum's website. The words "her" and "material" hyperlink to the Video Games and Blue Jeans music videos, so it seems like those songs were also part of the setlist (which would definitely make sense).

    Blog-critic lightning rod Lana Del Rey performed a “secret” tune-up set last night for a crowd of folded arms at the Glasslands Gallery on Kent Ave. She was billed as the Queen Of Coney Island, did her material along with a Sinatra cover (“It Was A Very Good Year”), and had a backing band full of dudes who look like they dine out on jazz-fusion instructional DVDs. Also, she chewed a lot of gum. Ryan Muir was on hand to take photos, which you can check out above.

    The show was a warm up for official gigs at the Box in NYC (9/21) and Hotel Café in L.A. (9/27)

    i think kintsugi is a gorgeous song and a great lyric but ive studied law for 6 years and this is all i can think about when she says the word donoghue and i giggle:

    Oh that'd be great, thanks and good luck!

    The NYT store responded to my email. Sounds like if you order the issue online, the cover you get is random :crai:

    "The T magazine was featured in the April 23 issue but it is not sold separately. You can purchase a copy of the complete newspaper for that day via the link below which will include the magazine but since there are 6 different covers, we cannot provide a specific cover, the one you receive will be random."

    Now I have to decide whether to take a chance by ordering it online and praying that I get the Lana cover :pray2:

    @rosemead ramada where did you get your copy?

    Yes they were. As far as I can figure out, the NY Times style magazine was included with the Saturday/Sunday (22nd-23rd April) paper and came with an option of 6 different covers, one of which featured Lana. But outside of the US, it seems like only 1 cover was available and that had Elle Fanning and Naomi Watts on it. I could be wrong, but every copy I found in the UK said 'international edition' on it and was the Elle Fanning cover.
     I'd like to hunt down a Lana cover because yes, the chicken shot is adorable, but don't fancy paying loads of money for it on eBay when the article is only 1 page long and has 1 photo :/

    Got it, thanks so much for the info! It looks like you can order back issues from their website, but since there were different covers, I wonder if there’s a way to specify the Lana/Joan cover. I’m gonna send them an email and I’ll keep you posted what they come back with :heart:

    Same boat, been waiting for mine too. 

    @maysparkle @Favorite Ever I emailed them yesterday and they replied pretty much right away saying that the issues were dispatched and it can take up to 6 weeks for them to arrive to the US. They said to email them again if I haven’t received them after 6 weeks….but I ordered the magazines 7 weeks ago 

    So I’m gonna give them until next week and send another email if I haven’t gotten them yet :um2:

    I live in a small college town so I thought if I got there like 45 minutes after open I’d be able to get my hands on Elton, Wilco or the 1975 (I figured Taylor would be sold out). I guess my store didn’t get that much cuz they were sold out of so much! I was able to snag the Cure record though which looks super cool so I’m excited for that

    Plus I found some great used vinyls in the bargain bins which always makes me happy so it wasn’t a total flop :wub:

    Oh it turned out to be a scam unfortunately, though to be honest I was 50/50 on whether it was real to begin with, I only risked it because of PayPal's moneyback guarantee. I've already started the claim process. Guess my list of scammed vinyl list will now be two (the other was the UV boxset). It was on Discogs, but not one of those obviously fake listings for like $80 from new sellers that pop up everyday, it was someone who had 100% positive feedback but it appears now it was a real account that was hacked. The scammer just took photos off old Mercari listings to trick me and photoshopped their name into it. Oh well, guess I really will have to pay $500+ for it. I'm only 3 vinyl away from having a complete collection so at this point I'm willing to pay it just to have everything

    Oh no, sorry to hear it was a scam 😢 Hope you’re able to get your money back smoothly :heart:

    Still waiting on my rolling stone magazine. Not sure why I still have hope that I’m getting it at all…

    Me too. Maybe it has something to do with the Royal Mail delays that I saw here, idk. All I know is that I ordered my Les Inrocks magazine from France and it was here within a week, meanwhile rolling stone is nowhere to be found at least a month later :crai:
