makes sense & is consistent with other rumblings I've heard - OBH, then album, then tour.  The 3,000 seat venue detail is also consistent and encouraging - perfect size & hopefully they'll do several multi-night runs

AND MOUNTAIN JAM!!!

I've seen info there before it hits this forum a few times. Plenty of OBHers there, too.

Fair enough. I haven't gone to Phantasy tour in maybe 10 years.

I swear, if they do a multiple night run at the Ryman, I will cry. If they some how line it up where they're at the Ryman around May 29th (My Birthday), I may die of happiness. Who do I bribe to make this happen?

Maybe they're going to make it really intimate and bring extra chairs on stage? Maybe they're going to make it completely GA and squeeze more people in? Just get out of here with your soul crushing logic!

Would a tour rumor make the band more or less likely to tour the rumored area if they haven't already booked a tour there? Depending on the answer I may or may not have heard that they're coming to Gothenburg...  :rolleyes:

I would assume that there will be a world tour after the initial north american tour for the new album.  Exciting  for europeans and americans alike because i recall the setlists in europe to be slightly different than they were here.  They got some big time rarities.
Title: Re: Tour Rumor!
Post by: Tomer on Nov 07, 2014, 07:29 PM
Cool. So the new album perhaps March/April? Think they'll announce album details soon?

And yeah, Im starting to save money for a european tour...This is the first thing in my mind for next year.

I have heard 3 separate rumors on venue holds next Summer.

Personally, I'm holding out for lineup announcements for Mountain Jam, Forecastle and Lockn.  The latter is shaping up to be insane.

I have an airline credit through SW Airlines that I am waiting to use for hopefully Red Rocks this year! Also, hoping for Forecastle....my tour date hopes:
1. Chicago (Chicago Theater)
2. Milwaukee (Pabst Theater)
3. Louisville (Forecastle or record release show)
4. Red Rocks (hopefully a 3 night run)
5. Indianapolis

I would absolutely love to see them come back to Chicago Theater.  That was my first non-festival MMJ show ever, and recently went back there to see Neil Young.  The place is magical. 

Whatever happens, we know that it's going to be good.  I can't think of a single time that i've been disappointed with anything that they have done tour wise.  They don't just go through the motions and have a tour just to have a tour.  They do things right.  They keep it real. 

Between the extra time off and the quantity of new music that they will be putting out in the near future, this feels like a big turning point for the band.  I don't think they have now or will ever have a big enough fan base to do what Phish does, a smaller collection of tour stops with multi-night runs more the norm than the exception (they certainly would have the catalog for it, though), however, it would be nice to see some more multi-nights sprinkled in.  It'd be nice if Chicago got some 3-night love, they could certainly support it.  And for that matter what about Louisville?  How about some 2-nighters in bigger but not massive cities like Milwaukee?  Yes, my midwest bias is showing hehe.  Anyway, I just feel that they have too many good songs (plus the obligatory new-album songs which could be great good or decent) not to expand a little in this way.

I'm waiting to make summer plans until I find out if/when MMJ will play Red Rocks this summer.  I saw them with Band of Horses at RR a couple years ago and it pretty much changed my life.  I'm so excited at the possibility of them returning this summer.  I checked the Red Rocks summer calendar and it looks like they have some shows booked already for June, July and August.  I'm hoping there will be an announcement after OBH. 

Also, Stevie you make a great point.  I agree with the multiple night show idea.  I feel like a 2 hour one night show would still leave me pretty hungry.

I'm digging this.

I agree with Stevie about some multiple night midwest runs. Problem about Chicago is the noise permits. Chicago will never get a 35 song set with serious jam seshs.

Yeah it's been awhile since Chicago had multiple night shows with MMJ (Chicago Theater for Evil Urges Tour). I've always wanted a NYE Chicago show at Navy Pier and then a big after party on one of the Chicago boat cruises.

Chicago crowds are always great and MMJ definitely gets a lot of love out here, I can't wait for 2015!

Indeed. Three nights at the Palace would be sublime. If the Avett Brothers can do it, why can't MMJ?

Whether we get news pre or post OBH, we should be getting news soon. I hope they make a stop at Brewery Ommegang. It really is the perfect venue for a summer concert. The area is beautiful, the staff is cool as shit, and the beverages are waaaay above average. Please hit Brewery Ommegang MMJ!!!

I agree with Stevie about some multiple night midwest runs. Problem about Chicago is the noise permits. Chicago will never get a 35 song set with serious jam seshs.

To be fair, I'm not sure how many 35-song sets MMJ has turned in..ever.  Possibly the most talked about MMJ show of all time, and maybe the longest (Bonnaroo '06), was "only" 32 songs. 

The last time they did a multi-night Chicago run we got:

http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/my-morning-jacket/2008/chicago-theatre-chicago-il-2bd6f88e.html (http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/my-morning-jacket/2008/chicago-theatre-chicago-il-2bd6f88e.html)

and then my first show:

http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/my-morning-jacket/2008/chicago-theatre-chicago-il-5bd6fb38.html (http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/my-morning-jacket/2008/chicago-theatre-chicago-il-5bd6fb38.html)


That's 24 and 26 songs respectively.  Now, it suddenly occurred to me that we are talking about a spring/summer tour and in that case we would be more likely to get an outdoor venue and the noise ordinance would be more relevant. 
Title: Re: Tour Rumor!
Post by: CHIMMJFAN on Jan 04, 2015, 05:57 PM
Yeah I'm actually hoping they are indoors in Chicago this summer so we don't get hit with the noise curfew. I'm good with doing Chicago Theater or Chicago Auditorium (which last happened near summer time last time MMJ was here).

If they'll do a special no-repeats run in NY or something I will consider coming over from Israel. Got some friends to stay at...But Europe is easier :) Got my money saved for an MMJ trip in 2015, hope it will happen.

I think we'll get album release date first, sometime right before OBH and tour dates after OBH.

Late February-Early May depending on the actual date of the release.

Well Cirtuital was released at the very end of May whereas the new album is supposed to be out in April. So if we're assuming (and that's all it is of course) they stick to the same timeline, bump everything up a month. Optimism folks!

Title: Re: Tour Rumor!
Post by: Stevie on Jan 14, 2015, 11:55 PM
Just going off of the circuital tour, i think we are more likely to see a massive summer/fall album tour.  The unclear thing to me is what will happen after the initial tour.  If they stick to the plan, they will have never put out two albums this close together before.  Back to back album tours?  Maybe.  Who knows.  Really anything can happen and thats exciting.
