Post by: CousinEddie on Dec 01, 2009, 03:07 PM
Heard they have holds on a venue in Memphis in April. Could not be more unconfirmed, but it gives me hope. :)

;D There are a couple.

You know how it is over there with the rumors, but to post an MMJ rumor out of the blue has me a little hopeful. Just a little. We'll see... :D

Hey, I'll meet you in Memphis if that happens! Of course, I'd much rather there be truth to the rumor that they'll play their first show in Oklahoma...

Very sketchy rumor here, but if your looking for something to possibly keep an eye on...My Morning Jacket to go on tour come 2010 with Son Volt being their supporting act with a possible date at Freedom Hall in Louisville. Just hearing things through the grape vine, you know how it is. We Shall See.......

i heard and this could be very far fetched but in Boone, NC (Appalachian state university to those unfamiliar to this beautiful city) they are redoing an old theater turning it into a music venue. someone on the city board and unfamiliar with mmj told me that mmj was gonna christen the new theater. i would downright cry id be so happy if this were true. :'(

I just got a txt from management and they say 2010 spring/summer/fall/winter is for sure.  the band has already completed their follow-up to evil urges which they are saying will blow minds.  12tracks, thick melodies, raging vocals.  all completely brand new songs as well as special guest appearances that they wouldn't disclose.  

still not much info but at least it's something, they're saying somewhere around 220shows this tour.

I found this from twentyfourbit.com that adds a bit more fuel to the Sun Volt/MMJ tour fire!!!!!


Jay Farrar to Release Woody Guthrie Album, Feat. Jim James

I mentioned this last week, before TwentyFourBit took off on our road trip, but a story that involves Woody Guthrie, Wilco, and Jay Farrar certainly deserves its own post. In an interview with the Austin Chronicle (via The Daily Swarm), Centro-matic's Will Johnson revealed some huge news about his involvement in the next installment of unreleased Woody Guthrie lyrics set to music composed by a living artist: Jay Farrar, of Son Volt and formerly of Uncle Tupelo, has taken the torch from Wilco and Billy Bragg, helming the recording of the next volume in the Mermaid Avenue series.

What's more, My Morning Jacket's Jim James is also performing on the album, according to Johnson. There's no release date set yet, but the songs have already been put to tape and are currently in the mixing stage.

My initial reaction to this news was that Farrar trying his hand at the same Guthrie project as his former estranged band mate and songwriting partner Jeff Tweedy could permanently burn the Uncle Tupelo bridge, but now I'm thinking the promotion of this volume could make for a pretty awesome reunion tour. I suppose it's going to take a few more chance encounters in Mexico for that to happen though.
Title: Re: Anyone else hearing rumors?
Post by: ALady on Dec 07, 2009, 03:51 PM
You know, I hadn't thought about that.  Good call!  Son Volt are really terrific these days; they would be a great match to tour with the Jacket.

Choder's prediction:

A few special show announcements, probably coinciding with things like Jazzfest and ACL, combined with one-offs that together join to form a Voltron-esque mini tour that showcases no new songs, but some new sonic directions that result in an EP, followed by a short break, then another moderate tour, then an album, then another world wide tour culminating in the rapture in 2012

BH...I don't know if it's the blue in the sky, but I'm feeling the thunder. It has the static pressure that's about to explode...the hardest part is I don't know what to expect; tour dates or a new album? The boys (especially yim yames) have been spitting out a couple of mini-albums & MOF, so maybe we are getting ready to hear about a summer tour.

if they play the Flimore in Miami again...i would spend the money to get down there...that was an awsome show and the theater was not at max capacity..you can be right up front, elbows on the stage...awsomeness

Post by: wakebord on Jan 14, 2010, 07:52 PM
i'd love them to play florida again.  just not shorten the setlist.  last tour in orlando we got about 4-5 less songs than other cities got.  miami got the same treatment.  i know florida isn't probably their biggest area for a fanbase, and its sort of out of the way to hit miami and orlando on a tour since they are so far out of the way from the normal southern swing, but i'd love for them to come back so i don't have to make the 5 hour drive to ATL from gainesville to see them (which i'd do for sure, but a bit closer would be great).

I was at the filmore miami august 08 as well.  I had a great time at that show too.  The miami crowd was a bit late arriving (as usual)  I was front and center and was able to "rest my elbows on the stage" as well.  I caught a peak at the set list, and the only song they skipped, unfortunately, was steam engine.

i'd love for them to make their way back down here again.

My Jacketitis is so crazy bad that I CANNOT listen to their music. I have been avoiding all my old romances with Just One Thing, Strangulation, Anytime, Gideon and so on and so forth because I am dyyyyyying for them to go on tour. Tonight I got in my car and XMU plays Mahgeetah and oooohhhhh, it felt good. I am not joking when I say I got a little teary-eyed.

I fell off the wagon.

And I will be at every show possible in 2010. I don't care if I have to fly, drive, walk, skip, thumb, swim or spend all my student loan money doing it.

You all better be there.

Bonnaroo announced their lineup by this time last year... has to come soon.. I'm sure many bands are sworn to secrecy in announcing their perfomances due to festival contracts. Perhaps we have a concert schedule coming as soon as the roo and coachella announce...

Again: Toronto; Masssey Hall please please please please.

Listening to 2008 Syndey recording from Archive. I too have been trying to take a break from listening because it brings me to this site to check out the rumours instead of listening.

Now on to Archive to download another show... any suggestions?

Girl, I had a Mahgeetah moment last week too.  It came up on shuffle as I was walking home from my dance class and I just had to bust out singing "SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, ARE YOU READY TO GO, MY LADYYYYYYYYY!" at the top of my lungs and generally looking like a crazy person.

I like to think of myself as a hippie of sorts, though my long hair fell out a few years back and I couldn't tell you what happened to my last denim jacket. Being that I started "hippiedom" in the mid '80s might ruffle a few feathers (ie. "not authentic!").  Not a very hippie-like sentiment, however.  

As to what I mean when I call myself a hippie.  Its not my clothes (pretty conventional).  Its being politically aware, striving for peace, abhorring violence, digging good music and nature, being environmentally conscious, and following the golden rule.  No one would look at me and think "hippie."    

from Dictionary.com

hip[ch8901]pie[ch8194][ch8194]/[ch712]h[ch618]pi/   [hip-ee]
 
–noun a person, esp. of the late 1960s, who rejected established institutions and values and sought spontaneity, direct personal relations expressing love, and expanded consciousness, often expressed externally in the wearing of casual, folksy clothing and of beads, headbands, used garments, etc.

Word Origin & History

c.1965, Amer.Eng. (Haight-Ashbury slang), from earlier hippie, 1953, usually a disparaging variant of hipster (1941) "person who is keenly aware of the new and stylish," from hip "up-to-date" (see hip (adj.)).

I think it was on the inforoo boards. I look at the "headliner speculation" and "strong rumor/confirmation" threads. I only look at them around this time of year so I dont know how reliable some of these kids are. Some of them could be talking out of their tailpipe, but I've noticed over the years that they're usually pretty close. It's a rumor thread after all.... ;)

glue sniffin' trustfund havin' skinny jean wearin' hipsterees always speculating on the jacket

Well well well, if it isn't the (DI) draft dodger...there's nothing more hippie than a draft dodger!!!  ;D

interesting list.  If it is legit I wonder if MoF will get together for anything special since they will all be there according to the list.

Aw, sheesh...   ;D

That list is a wishlist/prediction made up by some kid on Inforoo.  It's been making the rounds of the internet all week (and he seems pretty tickled about it).   ;D  They made a fake poster and everything.

http://bonnaroo.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=music&thread=19704&page=101#631872

That said, I think there are a lot of good guesses on that list.  I'd bet a beer on Jay-Z and DMB both being there.

it'd be awesome if they got Peter Gabriel to headline this year, didn't he just drop that album of covers?  hopefully Jay Z doesn't headline.  he'd be fun late night though.

Jay-Z would almost have to be late night What because he's playing the Isle of Wight festival in the UK the day before.  That said I am pretty confident he will be there.

I would be so, so down with Peter Gabriel.

Tuesday is a big day. Lost returns and the Roo lineup comes out. I might need some tranquilizers that day...

my cousin has been getting emails and tweets, little secret insights and riddles as to who will be there, I'll post them here.

They're sending the clues out over twitter as tweets. I'll send the literal clues and other possible outside clues (that are included in the tweets, but not the "clues" themselves).


Clue #1 - "The warmest monkey and offspring"

Clue #2 - "Buddy When Jolly"

Clue #3 - "Perfect to finish out the mispailed meal/mill"

Other clues?: "Some think I'm tweeting la-la-la-lies, some say this is monkey business. Who do you want to headline @Bonnaroo 2010?"
"Okay I'm sorry. I'll stop being a jokerman. I'll quit playing games with your heart. Though I could go further - or is it farther?"
"Sorry, what I meant to say was: 2010's gonna be big because @AC_Ent & @SuperflyGroup be big pimpin, spendin cheese..."

These are being solved over on Inforoo...apparently "Buddy when Jolly" = John Prine.

This site gives a nice summary of the tweets and guesses, too:

Sorry, I am a total Roo obsessive this week.  I just want the lineup to drop already!!!

Clue 10:
"local boys made good, and largely by wood"

tweet: "10 prolly not the rulers of birthday in july and august"

post: Local, could be anywhere in the South, made of wood, baseball bats> Louicville Sluggers> bands from Louisville


MMJ?

hmm..

my reply:

I went over the river.
And into the woods.

apparently it's gotten pretty ridiculous over at consequenceofsound.net.....john lennon just logged in and claimed to be headlining...simon lebon, too...

i would do RV to the VIP if J Lennon was headlining...just sayin....

Post by: Murph on Jan 29, 2010, 12:48 PM
i think DMB is pretty much a lock to be a headliner....their tour dates have come out and their is a convenient little gap from 6/8 to 6/15 where they have no shows booked

Quotenow that this thread is obsolete, let's start rumors about Bo based on this pic:
(http://images.musictoday.com/stores/images/mymorningjacket/2010/mmj700.jpg)

he was worried that someone was gonna make a voodoo doll of him & thought that if he didn't look directly into the camera he'd be safe.  unfortunately, he's unwittingly double-whammied himself because mirrors, like photographs, steal your soul - even when you don't make direct eye contact.

he'll be a zombie by the end of jazzfest.

Bo is a really complicated person.  But to be honest, ever since he joined MMJ he's become the biggest DIVA since Whitney Houston.  I think Bo is a bad ass but sometimes I wish he'd turn down the attitude.
