I just got this today. Has anyone else received theirs? It came separate from the Christmas single, which I got last week. The magazine is pretty cool. Great photos and content. I like this a lot more than the older newsletters.

So is there any actual news in the issue?
No actual news really (Stone mentions the album is 55 minutes long), but for those who don't like SPOILERS, STOP READING NOW!
The issue has a lot of pictures from the Canadian/North American and South American tours. They spell Pittsburgh wrong - they forgot the "h". Stone recommends his top 8 books. Jeff lists his top 10 skate parks. Mike lists his top 10 guitar solos (other bands' songs, not his solos). There is page that tells you how to draw the new PJ logo, the angel one from the Christmas single. Ed interviews Steve Turner, in the style of "The Playboy Interview". There is a picture of Al Franken stopping by the studio to visit the band. Kerensa shares a banana bread recipe. There are some letters from fans. Stone wrote a little piece for the Numbers column, which I guess is supposed to be "interesting bits that have to do with facts and figures" but apparently he didn't have time to write something so he just "winged it." They have the winners from Contest 24 (promo shot of a band) and they are a group of 9-12 years olds. The new contest is to match the picture of the band/10c/staff member with their dog. There is no new merchandise from what I can tell. And the foldout "poster" is double-sided: one side has a photo by Lance Mercer from the Vancouver show with Mike jumping while Jeff plays bass, and the other side is a closeup of Mike playing guitar with Jeff, Ed, and Matt in the background.
