Despite being from Western NY, I have never been there to see an act, but based on the pictures on the web, the setting appears to be great - background of the Niagara Gorge, Waterfalls, etc. 

If you are not familiar with the area, Lewiston is a quaint little town right next door to the venue and there are a lot of touristy things to do all over the region - Niagara falls US/Canada, Wineries, Niagara on the Lake, etc.  So, if you can stay a few extra days, I would do so.  I have also heard that if you plan to drink that you should also plan to stay nearby due to the police presence and their being very unforgiving.   

We have family in the area, so will likely turn it into a few days "see the family" trip.

Tried to snag the front row tix right at 10:00am this morning, but they were sold out by the time I clicked. Was out of the country for the pre-sale. Seriously disappointed. If anyone has extra front row tix, please let me know - thanks!!

Has anyone been to shows here before? Looking for an idea of the venue's curfew. My girlfriend is unable to get the day off work, so we're faced with leaving for Lewiston from Toronto (at rush hour) around 4PM. I imagine with all the traffic it could take up to three hours for a normally 90 minute drive. It could be tight if it's an early start!

EDIT - Through some scouring, it looks like the curfew is 10PM for Wednesday shows, so I imagine the Jacket will go on around 8. Looks like I'm in for another pre-show scramble!

I've been there before, they usually are pretty spot on with when the acts go on and wrap up. Only issue I've seen in the past is leaving the parking lot after the show only one exit for each parking lot and the wait can get ridiculous. When I saw MGMT we sat in the parking lot waiting for the line to die down for almost two hours. Other than that it's a beautiful venue in the middle of a park that is open to the public all day and the stage itself is seated right on the edge of the canyon above the water. Pretty much any seat is a decent seat even the nose bleeds on the hill have a great view especially with the big screens. $12 GA can still can you really close (about 20 rows back) if you stand right at the second gate. The security are dick heads about standing in the walk ways tho so if you want to get a spot and not get hassled get there by at least 7

What are the odds of getting a poster?  I'm not a Roll Call member or anything... is it strictly first come first serve or is there preference?

Most definitely first come, first served. I'd just be sure to get there early enough to get in the parking lot by gate time to be safe. Traffic is usually pretty solid with it being a small town with one way in and out.
Got my presale tickets in the mail today, very relieved. I was nervous I'd have to hassle with will call like in the past.
Gonna be a great night with a great view!
Hey oistheone, check your inbox!!! Lets meet up!!!

Got nothing in the inbox man! Maybe some forum kinks are still being worked out...

I'm gonna be flying like a mad-man down the QEW to make the show on time but have decided to stay the night so I'll have more than enough time to meet up! Still have that EU poster with your name on it if you're still interested!

No worries. Just wanted to check in and make sure we were all good. Hope you can get in town early enough to not be stuck in Lewiston traffic. Why don't you shoot me your number in a PM so we can have easy contact. And if you don't get there before gates, you could let me know. I'd be happy to snag you a poster for the show so you don't miss out on them.

hi guys, is there a meetup happening at all? this will be my first MMJ concert, after being a fan for a long time. Looking forward to this, looks like itll be a really great setting!

Man, what a joke. My tickets shipped in early June. They were last spotted in California two weeks ago according to UPS. Between still having no tickets and the epic traffic battle I'll be fighting, it seems as if the MMJ Gods are doing everything in their power for me not to make this show. I MUST DEFY THESE GODS

There isn't a meetup that I know of, but my wife and I will be hitting up the Brickyard Pub for some eats and drinks beforehand. Any and all are welcome to join us. We love meeting new people, especially MMJ people!
This is a Wonderful venue for them to be playing, and should be a great first experience for you. Everyone remembers their first time, and I love seeing and hearing peoples reactions. Your life will never be the same. It'll be my 9th time seeing them, and each time is special and never fails to move me.
Regardless, enjoy the show and the surrounding. Both are beautiful!

Hope your luck has started to turn! We're under a week, and it can't come fast enough. If your tickets don't show up, I'm sure they can set you up at will call. And remember, if you're running dangerously late, let me know and I'll be sure to snag a poster for you!

Can we not just pay for the ticket online and print ourself? why this hassle of waiting to get tickets in the mail? I haven't bought my ticket yet, as you can tell:)

I have 2 tickets for the pit that I can't use. Email me at danielcaputo@sbcglobal.net
We are in the middle of a move and I just can't swing it. At least I have MPP to look forward to.
I will overnight them. No charge. Just want them to be used.

WOW! This show was something special. Jim was in an incredibly talkative mood, heaping HUGE praise on ArtPark and Lewiston, at points comparing it to Red Rocks and The Gorge as the most beautiful venues in North America! The falls definitely inspired a KILLER setlist and fabulous playing throughout. Jim's voice sounded fantastic, his guitar work might have been the most focused I've ever heard from him. And the sound throughout the venue was unreal! Great place indeed. Special highlights were Where To Begin, Honest Man, Memories, Spring and War Begun! So glad I made it to the show, a special night indeed!

Couldn't have asked for a more perfect day! 

Good food and drinks at a place overlooking the beautiful Niagara River before the show, standing on Carl's side of the rail for my very first time and experiencing a great, great show from my all-time favorite band - all at a small intimate venue on a perfectly cool summer evening - having some adult beverages in town afterward, and then topping it all off with some late night eats courtesy of Jim's Steakout - if you have never had a Chicken Finger or Cheesesteak sub from Jim's Steakout, you seriously do not know what you are missing and should consider your life to be incomplete!

Perfect Day. 

My sincerest thanks to all that made it happen!

My first in person show. WOW.

Thought Victory Dance was well timed with the setting sun. :)

Cannot wait to see them again in person. What an awesome day for me... afterwards my sweetie took me to the Falls and we walked around until well after  12:30. Couldn't have imagined a better way to spend my 40th birthday.

Hoping a taping surfaces!

I was only able to snag one. The artist said all prints went to the show. So he doesn't have any more. He has a store on Etsy https://www.etsy.com/shop/ivanminsloff where he sells whatever gig posters he has left.
