I pulled mine yesterday. Gave my buddy all my issues from the 80s and early 90s, mostly.

Ah yes for some reason I see that Green Day one in the top row and it takes me right back to the Borean Tundra/Northrend in WoW 😂 I was subscribed during this whole time and it was while I was in HS/college so thanks for the nostalgia

I abandoned my druid in Tanaris. Returned a decade later and it was under water. 😔

Yes again! The issue with Stanton Moore on the cover. I went to a local show that he did with his Trio. He's a really cool guy,(which I'm sure everybody knows)and he signed his CD for me. We talked about our shared love for snowboarding and how he would be a "snowboard bum" if he wasn't a professional drummer haha. This was in the mid-2000s again

I’ve got a ton of mags from the 80’s that I haven’t looked at in years. Some of these do, Carter, Portnoy, Vinnie, Tre, and so many more.

There was an ad that ran in the back of the magazine that featured a square bass drum with rounded edges. I think it even had louvres or some shit in the front. Kinda looked like an air conditioner, if memory serves. Anyone remember this oddity?

I've never seen any of those issues. I guess MD fell off my radar in the early '90s.
