Will be there. Going with wife and friends to the London show but Ritz on my own so I don't have to worry about being able to dance as though no one is looking in Manchester.

Heartless Bastards are gonna open. That's great. Saw them last year opening for Drive By Truckers at the same place. They got a new album out next month.

Nice. I'll be pretty early in the venue area. Waiting to meet you guys. I will be the 32 year old who looks like a 20 year old, wearing MMJ dark red t-shirt :)

Flying from Israel tomorrow night! Gonna have the Saturday in Manchester to chill and then Sunday time! Excited.

Driving up from Birmingham but not sure what time I'm getting there yet. Pretty excited to see the band again and kind of miffed that this is the only show I can get to. Looking forward to seeing Tomer again after last years DBT shenanigans.

Probably the best show I have ever seen from probably the best live band in the world and even quite possibly the best band in the world that there is and as ever been.
Simply amazing. Thank you so much for coming to Manchester MMJ and much gratitude.
Will be asking the universe for you to come back soon.
Gratitude,gratitude,gratitude.

Great evening.  My 6am alarm this morning is the only downside... looking forward to London tomorrow night.

My first live experience of MMJ and I wasn't disappointed. Met some MMJ superfriends and was welcomed with open arms. Erica owned the joint. Jim's a fine front man, and the band were on point! Looking forward to doing it again tomorrow in London.

wow, seems like such a small stage but I guess the venues are smaller so it makes sense. Still kinda crazy to see

Must be really weird for you in the U.S. to see MMJ play in really small venues. In the UK the band are virtually unknown but those of in the know are so privileged to see this amazing band playing in small venues.
I was telling people at work on Monday morning about the show and all I got was just blank expressions and a lot of who? who? etc. Ridiculous for the greatest band  I have ever heard or seen.
