Oh beloved Jacket, won't you please give your hometown a killer 3 hour set and let us dress like Daniel Boone and Davey Crocket... I wanna be Abe Lincoln or Colonel Sanders!

I will ride with mjkoehler! I will need an alibi for work from someone who works in an industrial plant somewhere in Louisville.
I'd come from Reno, Nevada but only if the actually played in shelbyville Ky.
on a farm.
They could start their own homecoming festival there every year, in the early fall when the summer heat cools.
we could build a bonfire and slow burn till dawn.
Forum members would be VIP guests of course.
camping would be encouraged.
we could smoke blue grass.
Take me down to the space rock city
where the grass is blue and the rock is sticky

Oh won't you Pllllllllleeeeeeeeaaaaaaaseeeeeeee take me HOME!!!!!
I am coming from San Jose California!! I am there for all the sticky rock and roll I can take.
I love you guys- I have not been off this cloud since meeting Evonne in the second row Friday night at the Fillmore.
I have found some new old tracks thanks to this Forum and love the streams.
I saw Jim at the Palace of Fine Arts and was totally in heaven back in October.

Yeah! Road trip. BTW, you inspired me to feel the love for NYS. I spent a few days in the Adirondacks with a good friends and realized how much I miss the woods. Rejuvenating. Thanks. :)
If I'm not mistaken there is a music festival in Downtown L'ville this summer. This may be possible. We can only hope they play and treat us right there. I don't see why they wouldn't.

CAN YOU SAY HEADLINER (HOPEFULLY IT OCCURS TO ME)
Yea, Forcastle is cool! They can come to that as well as the spring fest we plan for them... hehehe
Chalk one up from Chicago,and Detroit.
I'll put one of my testicles up on Ebay if I have to........

I don't think Forecastle is biig enough for them. Don't they have that at the Mellwood Arts Center. I like the Cherokee Park idea if there was some open space in the park, it's all hills, the great lawn may be a better idea. I'm thinking a surprise/secret show at Headliners, just like old times!

Yeah, if you had told me ten years ago (high school-aughh!) that I would feel the love that I do for this area, I would have scoffed...

Forcastle is moving to the Belvedere this year so that should be kinda cool.
Dog hill in Cherokee would be very cool, the park probably wouldn't go for that though...
I'd love to see them at headliners, you'd have to camp out for days to get in.
DO IT!
I will be there. A 90 minute drive is nothing. We drove to Champaign, Illnois, for god's sake.
I will be there. I will dress up like whatever. I will go wherever.
I need my 2007 fix.
as a relative noob here at the forum, I'm wondering if this idea is within the realm of real possibility
I dont know if I can deal with another dream of the Jacket playing Cherokee Park if it cant come true.....or at least close to the park

Make it so! Can't help with the alibi unless it involves a large, international, petfood company that is based in StL that is owned by a Swiss Chocolate company that shall remain namless

I think you're sort of right but I've gotta dream. If they keep growing like the do, we'll be lucky if they come home at all. Louisville hardly ever gets bigger bands of that tour (not that I want to see half the bands that don't come here) Not that Phish plays anymore but I think they played their last Louisville show in 1995, yet they continued to tour for 9 more years, we just don't have the venue or the crowd draw.
LouVilloozaJacketRoo Fest 2007
Waterfront park.
Other local bands play till sundown.
Jacket starts at dusk.
Really all you need is money to make this happen.
...so does anyone know someone with lots of money? :-/

I guess it was about 5 years ago, the Jacket played Waterfront Park for some WFPK thing....for free
it was awesome
were any of you guys there?....there were probably only about 200-300 people there on the lawn
I am there from the Bay State 8-)

yo, I was there. When Johnny stood on top of the monitor and swung his guitar around it was seriously inches from knocking me out. That was a great show. I was also at that show at the Rud in 2000 you were talking about the other day. I'm sure we've bumped into each other a few times over the years.
I'd come from MN

See MMJ, we'd bring um in from far and wide... PLEASE! Maybe we could collect money to pay you guys... how much does a show in a field cost?
You know, if we can't get the band I say we all come anyway and everyone that knows how to play music can just play jacket tunes, and various other covers till the sun comes up. Hell, I'm cool even if you want to bust out some of your originals. I might even get up there and rock an acoustic guitar for the final Jam of "At Dawn" as the sun cracks the plane. It will be like the "Last Waltz" except we will do it every year in some big ass field in Kentucky and we will all dance and hug and get naked and howl at the moon.

Shit, that'd be so cool the band would just show up to hang out!

nice
Seriously, it could be like the Labowski fest. We could have games and everything.
First Event.
One Big Holliday - Air Guitar Contest.
You need to have a partner so you'll probably have to fight with your friend over who gets to be Carl. It's awesome because I've already put in hours of practice. I really feel like I'm at the top of my game right now so........Watch Out!!!!!!
We could have a beard growing contest! There can't be a winner until the second annual event because we would have to document the length when you enter the first year.
I would like to request Maker's Mark as the official sponser.

dude, totally. You can go ahead a confirm a performance by Your Evening Windbreaker (my psuedo mmj cover band)! [smiley=vrolijk_26.gif]
This is THE BEST IDEA EVER.
I can't believe it's taken me three pages to lend my support.
I would be there in a flash. From Michigan. With my mom & sister because we ladies know how to rock. :-*
Great idea! At this point I would travel anywhere to see them. I just got back from Cali where I saw them in Anaheim and L.A. Amazing shows! I live in Va, but what's a few miles? Count me in! :)
