Sure this is amazing.... how about grabbing tickets to this? 3k max at this venue.
What does "5-show ticket packages available to fans" mean?
what a bunch of Wilco ripoffs ::)
GFD, why the hell dont I live in NYC
HELLS YEAH!!! I hope I can make them all!
what do i do if i can only afford one ticket but have never seen strangulation or war begun live?
OMG OMG OMG. Please say this means 5 volume live album or something nuts like that. Gotta figure there are going to be ridiculous jam sessions on War Begun, Phone, Steam, Dondante....this is unreal. I wish I could take the time off work to be there. Already amped for the tapings. Maybe we'll get some of the B-sides never before performed like Devil's Peanut Butter. Particularly excited to hear the tapings of the Tennessee Fire and At Dawn albums! I'm pretty sure there is a lot of stuff the current lineup has never played together live (I'm real amped about Just Because I Do ;D)

sell everything you own.

only 3k capacity?! wow, that kind of sucks as a ton of people will get shutout on tix.
Shark move might be to try and get tix for the Evil Urges & Beyond night as it will probably have less people trying for tix when they go on sale
so, they'll only be playing Steam Engine 1 night?
that sux :-/
This falls right after "The Philadelphia Phillies are the 2008 World Champions of Baseball" in my list of Greatest Words That Have Ever Been Spoken in My Lifetime.

ok, so maybe 4-5k then. That still isnt much considering the city theyre doing this in and the demand there will be for tix

it'll be interesting to see which shows sell out first. i would be all over the first 3 (just because i've seen them so many times on the last 2 records).

I am more interested in seeing the first three nights, especially 'It Still Moves'. Still not sure what they mean by "fans" have rights to a 5 night package on June 14th. Anyone?
Terminal 5 is an awful venue. Sound blows and you can hardly move-not stopping me from trying for tickets though. Hoping this means a fall tour filled with lots of old and new tunes and different setlist each night. A girl can dream....
Anyone have an idea on pricing for the 5 pack?

$219 r/t from Chicago. All right.
Seriously, how am I gonna swing this? hahaha. I might have to start a thread...
Un-fucking-believable. This is my wet dream. I'm ridiculously excited for the day to come just to buy the 5-pack. I cannot describe the excitement that will come from actually being there.

ALady, I'm in the same boat as you!!!!! And it's over 6 nights so hotels will be pricey$$$
Anyone interested in getting a group together to cut down on prices? I'm buying a 5 day pass for sure and then figuring the rest later, I'm shaking right now!!!
HOLY FUCKING SHITTTTTTT............ahhhhhhhhhhhhhahasdhoiuhsfhhh
This is brutal for a west coaster who has pretty much blown all his vacay time already. I think I'll just [try to] buy tix and go from there.
my reaction to this was similar to when i went on that crazy ass ride atop the stratosphere in vegas: HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! the difference being i was scared shitless on that thing & this is just pure elation :D

it sure is! this is AWESOME!!!!
mine is 2 days before the 1st show, but i see nothing wrong with celebrating the entire month. hmmm, i should ask my fam to all chip in & get me the 5 show pass thingie. then all i'd have to do is try to beg out of work early 3 of the 5 nights. if i'd have known about this - i would've planned my vaca time better. time to get creative ;)
I love this band more than anything. Thank you, MMJ for doing this. I love you.
My only concern is actually getting the 5-night package since I am sure the demand will be insane.
Who wants to go in for a hotel room? I don't mind sleeping on the floor if it will lower the cost. Is 12 people to a room too much? :P
Will there be a pre-sale password? (Lol...I am sorry for the anticipation...)
you couldn't fit 12 people sardined on the floor in most NYC hotels, they is tiny!
I'm way into splitting a hotel room. I'm not a weirdo or anything!!!!!
sweet!! i'm going to entertain you all during the day! ha ha
who wants to sign up for my bob dylan village walking tour?
God is good. God is great. Let us thank him for the Jacket 5 night stay(t).

I'm in Chicago but I'm willing to travel for a little crime.
just moved to brooklyn from seattle. picked a good time. will definitely be at Tennessee Fire and will most likely be at At Dawn and It Still Moves.
these 5 nights are going to be legendary. who is taping? we need all 5nights! TAPE IT!
Quotethese 5 nights are going to be legendary. who is taping? we need all 5nights! TAPE IT!
YES.
Even if you can't go to the shows this should be super exciting. The band is going to reacquaint themselves with the ENTIRE catalog! You know they are not going to spend all that time it takes to get tight and then never break them out again.
Oh
My
God!
The pain of not being able to go to any of these shows is heart-stopping. Oh the sorrow :'( Must get money, sell everything, rob bank, learn to walk on water... [smiley=2vrolijk_08.gif]
fuckin college damn it. i'd be all over this shit.
Quotethese 5 nights are going to be legendary. who is taping? we need all 5nights! TAPE IT!
Don't just tape it. fucking release all 5 nights in a DVD/LP package. I'd pay $500 bucks for that shit since I can't make the shows.
I will be going for the 5 night package.
I only want Z & Evil Urges.
Does anyone out there want:
It Still Moves
Tennesse Fire
At Dawn
Preference goes to someone who wants all 3 nights. 2 tix each night. Face + Fees.

i'll try z and eu.

They may need a bigger boat.
From what I see there is only 3000 seats in the this place. They sold out Radio City in 40 minutes and MSG was close to capacity. That said.
I can't wait!!!!!!!!! Oh please god of Yim, deliver us souls tickets!!

Ok.... Just got my puke cleaned up..
This is insane, I will do my best not to miss this.
I've read all of your thoughts from the live shows, and the recordings, heres some other thoughts:
1 Each night they only play "the" album, nothing else. From track 1
to whatever. They play it so perfect in the perfect setting to the perfect crowd. They play it like you've never heard them play it before with the fear of never hearing it like that again.
2 If a recording project comes of this, never mix it, use all footage from start to finish in a series of disks. I would even add some off stage content.
3. If at all possible get the package. I couldn't imagine seeing one of these shows, knowing there is another one the next night..unbelievable
just my 3 cents,, I'm going out of my mind ;D
Man, I am blown away, excited for the band and for we fans. I can't see myself going, though. It would be all or nothing for this and its hard for us teachers to take a week off when classes are in session.
I will "pray" for you all to get your 5-day tix, a place to stay, and for some top-notch tapers.
Maybe something will change, but for now I will live this epic 5-night run through you.
Wow!
Well this is certainly a nice present for us fans!
Can't wait!
I'll be at atleast one show.
can we dream of a live stream? iclips? that would be to good to be true.

I hope these 5-fers don't sell TOO quick so we can get our hands on 'em
:D Excellent news...plus, the new forum header looks fuckin' sweet!!
it'd be awesome as well if we could get some form of live webcast to listen in for those of us that can't go or can't swing tickets.
also, 2nd that on the forum header. lookin' good!

two weekends ago when they were broadcasting summer camp I was talking to the iclips mod about them webcasting Ween and MMJ this summer and they were all about it. It seems like it's up to bands, iclips would probably gladly support them from what it sounds like.

This is just ridiculous. Totally put dibs on my dear friends floor space 2 seconds after I got the email. I still have plenty of vacation time left and this is right before my black out period for travel (yay!). And, me and the hubs have been really, really good about saving for a rainy day, so the cash flow is there. Now, getting tickets is my only concern. May the ticket Gods smile upon us all. Any word about what time the pre-sale starts on Monday?

hooray!
my one source for a couch in NY moved out of town this month. alas!
I might manage the Saturday show, though more for the "...and beyond!" then the "Evil Urges..." Great album, but all of my live Jacket experiences have happened post-EU. Still, haven't had a live "Librarian" or "Remnants".
I'd love to find up to 3 others willing to carpool with me down from NH, through MA etc. to NYC. Plenty of time to iron out the details. Just can't swing the whole week.
I'll save my 4 personal days for the next big MMJ tour announcement. I think my 3-show April and 3-show August are fair consolation.
Just think, a few months ago, how we all bemoaned the drought of live MMJ. I've been jumping on every live experience I can and now I'm running out of money and goodwill points from the wife.
Unreal...
I wouldve rathered they did this at MMJ's first "Jacket Only" 3 day summer festival so everyone could enjoy this instead of 3000 people
QuoteI wouldve rathered they did this at MMJ's first "Jacket Only" 3 day summer festival so everyone could enjoy this instead of 3000 people
Wilco is doing that in N. Adams, MA. Looks like a great fest.

I still cant wrap my brain around the sheer awesomeness of this. These guys never cease to amaze me....thank god i live in NY
QuoteI wouldve rathered they did this at MMJ's first "Jacket Only" 3 day summer festival so everyone could enjoy this instead of 3000 people
in time, capt.
nothing to complain about here.
I think I will hit at least one show...ISM for sure...I can't stay away from Steamengine. But I will happily go to any of the nights...it's all about what you can get.
I also agree with BH; it's likely they will be playing these more.
But I'm wondering when the Terminal 5 Box Set of DVD's will come out... :D maybe Xmas!
I still feel a little weak in the knees...holy shit...
[size=24]THANK YOU MMJ!!!![/size] :-* :-* :P :P :P :P :-[ :'( :D ;D ;)
Yessss bring a Jacketfest out to North Adams, MA too!!! :D Or anywhere out in the beautiful Berkshires. Of course we do have a mini Jacketfest coming up. I can't wait to check out this newly renovated venue in Holyoke, MA.
IF I can make it to one of these NYC shows (sadly, probably not) I would have to go with the Tennessee Fire show! A small intimate setting for those songs, played in the same order I've listened to them privately over the years???? .... What an emotional and unforgettable experience that would be.
Hmm....this gives me a weird feeling.....like maybe they're gonna announce the band breaking up after these 'career summarizing' shows.
Hope not.

what sort of band does something so committed and deeply involved before disbanding? not sure i understand the logic there.

This is epic. I'm seriously considering a week's holiday in NYC this October.
Whilst I haven't had the time -or the bother- to read over the last 9 pages, I heard about this today in so many different forms; I did however read that this venue is a little under par; anyway. So I live in Australia, and have been wanting to go to the states for a while; would it be crazy to spend my little savings and fly over for this amazing event (or concept)?
And who would give me their couch for a week? ha!
(Yeah it is sounding kinda crazy).
This is probably the most incredible concert series ever!!!
I have a problem with it though. Why not do the same string of shows on the west coast as well. I'm sure Portland has a venue equally as good as the one in NYC. It's shitty that the east coast gets a string of shows with the PHJB and now this and the west gets a few festival dates and that's it.
For all you lucky people who get to go...you're fuckin lucky is all I can say.
QuoteYessss bring a Jacketfest out to North Adams, MA too!!! :D Or anywhere out in the beautiful Berkshires. Of course we do have a mini Jacketfest coming up. I can't wait to check out this newly renovated venue in Holyoke, MA.
IF I can make it to one of these NYC shows (sadly, probably not) I would have to go with the Tennessee Fire show! A small intimate setting for those songs, played in the same order I've listened to them privately over the years???? .... What an emotional and unforgettable experience that would be.
Hope we get to see you Kenny!!!!!!!!!! (or as i like to call ya -- Kevin ;)
Bring the 5 NIGHTS - 5 ALBUMS concept to Europe!!!!!! :)
QuoteWhilst I haven't had the time -or the bother- to read over the last 9 pages, I heard about this today in so many different forms; I did however read that this venue is a little under par; anyway. So I live in Australia, and have been wanting to go to the states for a while; would it be crazy to spend my little savings and fly over for this amazing event (or concept)?
And who would give me their couch for a week? ha!
(Yeah it is sounding kinda crazy).
If you can swing it, it'd be CRAZY not to!!
MMJ in New York City, all 5 albums in order, a trip you've been wanting to do for a while. It will be epic, and a memory you'll cherish for the rest of your life!! 8-)
Don't worry about the venue. It's going to be great seeing them in a smaller club. If the sound isn't that great where you are, then just move to another area. It'll most likely be all ga, and we'll be free to roam all three levels.
You still have time to think it over before the presale, but I say go for it, if you can.
Fingers crossed that the ticket gods will be smiling on us at the presale.
So, do you think we can expect a lot of Sandworm and whatnot? I'm looking at you, Top Gun and Ms. Badu!
What's up guys and gals?
Long time lurker of these forums....been coming here for a few years to get info and stuff.....but now I felt compelled to join. The 5 night residency is awesome news. Just what I needed.
I'm looking to try and do the last three nights. It's just better for me financially and also schedule-wise.
What do you guys think will happen each night? Will they play ONLY the album they are supposed to or do you think we will possibly get a cover or two? Maybe an encore or something?
If they only play the albums....i'd imagine they'd have to stretch some songs out (not a hard task for MMJ) so that the concert lasts longer than 80 minutes.
can't wait. hope i don't get shut out when buying tix for the Thursday, Friday, and Saturday shows. I'd probably be down for sharing an apartment/hotel room as well. I live on Long Island but don't really want to pay $20 a night for train service.

Where's the dissent? Am I the only person here not from the NE? The idea is un-fucking-believable, but it makes me highly su-motherfuckin'-spicious. Was greater thought not placed towards a more "neutral" site? Besides selling everything I own, which I saw given as advice on an earlier page, me and many other hardcore west and southern fans are sort of left out.
If not somewhere more central in the U.S., then is there some reason this couldn't be done multiple times?
I mean this is the most epic of everything epic I've ever imagined(short of them joining the stage with Geddy, Neil, and Alex). I realize I'm just being a sore loser, but why are they doing this to me? :'(
I'm in Cali, and certaiy not bitter. It's NYC for chrisake! Get yourself a plane ticket and be there.
... Terminal 5 is NOT "a smaller club"
It is a freakin' airplane hangar with 500 foot ceilings
seems to me if this is a huge success a West Coast repeat's not out of the question. Don't be bitter- hope for it to succeed!!
(from an east coaster ;D)

Doing it multiple times would kind of take away from the epic proportions of it, IMHO

Haha....no I don't really train monkeys. I'm 23 and have had this as a screen name since I was in my early teens......made it for no apparent reason and stuck with it. That's a common question though.
I'd love to see some guests or other songs or something. I mean I'm sure they can stretch some songs and jam it out but I'd like to see at least 2 hours of Jacket per show.

? :'(
Not sure what their reasoning is. I know I was upset that there weren't many NY dates for the initial tour announcement. The only close shows I saw were opening for Petty which is cool but not a full Jacket show. With these new dates then they seem to be showing more love to the northeast/NY area. I'm happy (selfishly) because I will get to see them (assuming I get tickets).
Maybe they'll do some other special things in the future in other areas.

not sure it makes much sense to have it centrally located..? in the midwest somewhere? where would you suggest that other than Louisville *similar to the DBT doing their Athens shows every year...? population density wise, it makes sense to have it in the northeast, that's where the people are, and they are more likely to travel..oh and it's NYC, even if you think the venue's subpar (it's a fine venue); everything becomes a little more 'epic' in NYC; just think having it in a neutral place would inconvenience a ton more people somewhat rather than a small number extremely..it's a trade off
they should play in a field where Nebraska, Iowa, and Missouri borders all meet god damnit!!! >:( :D
who wants to buy my tickets and transportation?

Hey itrain...I recognize you from Inforoo. Welcome :)
Didn't y'all read the press release? ;D ;) It says they'll be performing each record in its entirety, along with whatever b-sides/outtakes/covers from that era in Jacket history. I'm pretty psyched to see some Rocket Man, Dream A Little Dream of Me, Tyrone... :D
And I hate to add griping to the griping, but man...I don't see how anyone can complain about them doing this. It's an amazing, once-in-a-lifetime thing!

Dude, chill. Something like 60% of the US population lives within a day's drive of NYC. I'd say that's pretty "neutral".

Thanks for the welcome. Glad to be here....tho I feel like i've been here forever since I've lurked quite a while. ;D
Oh....and the news about the B sides and other songs.....amazing. I'm now even more pumped for this set of shows. I wish I could do the whole 5 nights. This will be epic.

Exactly Penny. I can't even go but I can't imagine a better place for them to do it (no idea about the venue, but I sure wouldn't be bitching about seeing them inside up close and personal). New York City can't be beat, tis the center of the world.
As for all the other haters, who the fuck are you people? Do you even like my morning jacket? These 5 shows could possibly be the most intense set of shows the Jacket has preformed to date. We're already guaranteed songs that haven't been played in years and some that haven't been played ever.
Also assume they're going to be playing Cobra, How Do You Know, and a bunch of other shit off the EPs they've dropped over the years. These shows are going to be insane no matter which you're at.
I can't go (except maybe the last show), but I can fantasize. I'd like to see, as a consolation prize, a 6-disc BluRay boxed set.
My Morning Jacket
Five Nights
NYC 2010
One disc per show and one of extras. And release a BluRay Okonokos w/Acoustic Chorale in the bonus features, while you're at it.
I know New York makes it hard for people out west, but like was said above, its probably the best location for it. There are only 3 other places I could see them doing this: Louisville (obviously), Nashville (due to all sorts of ties the band has to the city), and San Fransisco (where they have done 3 night stands before). The same gripes are going to be made about any place they chose to do this because so many people want to go, but New York is a good choice. MMJ is New York big time these days. I just hope and pray for some good live recordings, a live album or DVD, and that this isn't some sort of Last Waltz for the guys. I don't think that it is, but it would be a hell of a way to go out if so.
My head is still in a fucking daze since I found out yesterday. This is going to be one monumentous event!! Though, I don't think I am going to be able to swing 5 shows. Definitely hitting ISM and probably Z. Finally get my sister and her husband to see them, Z is the only album they really know; and it's about fucking time they see them. THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! Guys for doing this!!!!!! ;D ;D ;D

If there is some rule I'm unaware of regarding Signature images and their maximum sizes then somebody please let me know. Not trying to cause a problem. What's the overall consensus? Is this really too big and I have to make it smaller? :-?
edit: looking around now it seems like nobody has images in their sig. I just thought it was a common thing on music forums. If it's really an issue for everyone then I'll remove it. Otherwise I'll at least make it a bit smaller later on tonight or this weekend.

I'm considering surgically attaching a packet or two of smelling salts to the face, as I've developed a disorder of blacking out roughly once per hour when I think about this event.

The plight of teachers. We get loads of time off, but its hard to take it when we want. You're not alone, Dylan. I'd suggest you come up to New England for a few shows in August, but you guys start school earlier that we Yanks. We do what we can.

Is the 5 pack going to be available on the 15th or 16th? Or is it just a pre sale thing and thats it? Sorry if it's buried in the previous 14 pages, at work right now so I can't really look around.
Thanks!
QuoteHas anyone confirmed that the "5-pack" are individual tickets that can be split and used independently by anyone?
I really want to know this and am scrambling for an answer. It will dictate whether I buy today or not. (also will dictate how hard the scalpers will hit this I suspect)

QuoteQuoteQuoteHas anyone confirmed that the "5-pack" are individual tickets that can be split and used independently by anyone?
I really want to know this and am scrambling for an answer. It will dictate whether I buy today or not. (also will dictate how hard the scalpers will hit this I suspect)
I have no idea about this. I am going to get the 5 pack, but if I see anything on the TM website, I will be sure to post.
Well, I went ahead and bought anyway. It's not likely I'll be able to use all 5, but it seemed better than trying to buy individual tickets or dealing with scalpers.
Interesting that there was no electronic printing option and that tickets have to be mailed. Curious to see whether it's one big ticket that you use each day (that would kill scalping for sure) or if they mail 5 tickets, in which case I can sell a few off.

One big ticket might cut down on scalping, but I'm not sure I want to be walking around with something worth $200 in my pocket all week long.

Sweet...I did it by phone so that I could ask about the ticket package, but the woman on the phone didn't have any info on that. It is SOOOO worth it even if you have to miss a show or two! I paid over $100 for single tix at RCMH on ebay - so this was a deal for me! Can't wait to see you all!
thanks for trying to find out the scoop tdb. "A++" for effort!
i guess we'll have to wait & see if it's a 5 day pass or individual tix that can be split up & divvied out to other fans that can't make all 5 shows.
i'm ridiculously excited about this!
I went to the Wilco 5 night engagement in Chicago - I bought the five pack, which came as indavidual tickets for each night - I assume that this will be the same
since this is a different album in its entirety every night, do you guys think they will have the normal evil urges backdrop or will they use album era-specific backdrops on stage? random thought but just wanted to see what everyone thought.
QuoteIs the 5 pack going to be available on the 15th or 16th? Or is it just a pre sale thing and thats it? Sorry if it's buried in the previous 14 pages, at work right now so I can't really look around.
Thanks!
earlier today, d. sinclair (mod) posted that they will be individual tix. sweet!
and the 5 pack is still available on TM today. i was able to pull 6, the max allowed, not too long ago (i was just curious).
I'm curious to know how the tickets were split up between 5-day passes and individual day tickets. Will they stop selling passes when the individual show tix go on sale? Would they potentially sell the place out with 5-day tix if they sold them all? Or will they still have 5-day tix available after individual tix sell out?
Just bought a 5-Day ticket.
YES!
BUUUUUUUAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
Is in... :D
Just visited eBay for my daily gander at all things Jacket. Someone has a single 5-day pass up for $439. Damn, that ain't right.

i'm definitely working on it... ;) something special for the whole week, where bluesky and vespa's flags can hang and where the band can stop in and say hi. i'll keep ya posted.
breaking news: Jim James just hurt his cervix during rehearsals for the terminal run. Word on the street is they were trying a new harness out so Jim could schwoop down like an Owl during the shows and float over people's heads. Supposedly the safety line snapped and he busted up his cervix really bad and had to be rushed to the hospital. no word yet on whether or not the shows will be canceled but it's looking like it's possible.
Men have a cervix?

a) i'm almost 99% sure men do NOT have a cervix
b) where did you get this info from? Any source links or anything?

I usually don't trust anything until Wikipedia says so :D but damn, I sort of pictured him 'schwooping' and didn't even think to fact check
whatever h8ers, CC Baxtor should be making the announcement tonight or tomorrow. and if you must know my morning coffee I get all my info directly from patrick via direct tweets. If you read back you'll see Pat and I are the best of friends and used to hang out all the time before the band got so huge, now we rarely hang since I moved up north. he's a great friend and I really hope Jim is alright, it sounds like he fucked himself up real good. They tried using the same harness system Andrew Bird used that one time on steam engine. When the crew re-fitted the harness with the owl wings it made it heavier than anticipated, thus the rope snapped and Jim apparently "wailed his cervix on his stack", whether this was merely Patrick messing with me or not remains to be seen. I hope you're alright Jim, My <3 Beats 4 U. :-*

Back in Philly in 2006 Jim proclaimed that bass could get you pregnant. I had no idea falsetto could have the opposite effect.

badass. only i have had mmj in my life for years...therefore i have never felt the feeling of being sad. only varying degrees of elation. the last couple of days have been simply labeled as 'happy'. an all time low.
but seriously. great post. it is a tough time but nothing could stop me from nyc. i'll take 1000 breakups.

well the 5 day passes were up for several days, and to my knowledge never 'sold out' just became unavailable once the single tix went up. When the single tix went up...I think Z sold out first, fairly quickly, then EU, then ISM, then the others. You could still get ISM, AD, and TTF for several hours after they went up.
So all five nights are sold out now?
my bad, TF and AD are still available, didn't realize that.
Quotemy bad, TF and AD are still available, didn't realize that.
That blows my mind. whatever tho. people who aren't going to those two shows are going to regret it in 5years.

Yeah, I meant the first night sold out in 2 hours after general sale. I got my 5 day pass at around 6pm the day they went on sale.
*hums* ...so I'm looking for a ticket to the Evil Urges show... *whistles a tune (specifically Sec Walkin)*
So many posts about these shows, so maybe this has already been posted, but if not:
"Everest has been invited by friends My Morning Jacket to help close out their five-shows-in-five night run at Terminal 5 in NYC this fall. The Los Angeles-based quintet will take the stage Saturday, October 23 before MMJ caps off their five-album stint with Evil Urges. Already sold out, the show is sure to be a memorable finale for the ambitious week, which is sure to set a historic musical precedent"

A greatest hits set each night.
Hi there, :)
I'm from Greece and I'm going to visit NY for a month in October. It happens to be a MMJ fan also and I really want to attend the fifth show at Terminal 5 because "Evil Urges" is one of my favorite albums.
Unfortunately I can't find a ticket for that show. Does anyone has a spare one. Please PM me. Is there any possibility to find one outside Terminal 5, the day of the concert or the days before?
I've seen twice MMJ 4 years ago in Portugal, they supported Pearl Jam and they were great!

I cant wait to see some more. Looking forward to picking up some posters of this epic event.
Cool! Where did you see that hanging up??

Okay, so I have been given the task of finding lodging for nights 3,4 and 5 (thur-sun). I thought I saw something posted regarding apts in the thread but can't find any after going through all the posts (but prolly missed it). We stayed in a $350 a night hotel room for RCMH but we will not make the same mistake again. I have found a couple wesites like citi-habitats and nycdwellers for listings in Chelsea. I presume this is the way to go? Are there any other websites worthy? We'd also do a group rental thing if peeps are doing that somewhere, we have various night's tix to barter with folks. Any other thoughts or parking spaces we could car camp at? Someone's driveway or something?
Thanks for any positive advice!
Try homeaway.com or VRBO if you want to do the group rental thing. Brooklyn might be your best bet for a location.

where are you flying in from? (if flying?) try Newark or a hotel in Queens ...(cheaper) very few parking spaces anywhere here...
Thanks Penny,
We are driving from NH. I have looked into Dirty Jersey before and it is an option. I truly love the city though and find it that much more exciting being in the middle of it all. I was hoping maybe someone else has rented an apt before and could give the skinny, like cleaning fees and pets, etc...
Finally booked my airfare. Got in just under 200, so I'm super pumped. Booking the airfare definitely makes it real (especially since the tix are non-refundable)...guess I really have to go now
Just over 2 months till PUMPOSITY

Try Jersey City or Secaucus for lodging.

I agree. If you got a few people it's cheaper to get a hotel in those locations and just bus in. Im still looking for a good place, just gotta get some cash together.
Hey guys, I know I'm late to this thread...but...
I'm a longtime lurker on this forum, and a diehard MMJ fan.
We're flying from CA for a few of the Terminal 5 shows (ISM and Evil Urges)
but we really wanted to see Z too!
anybody on here got two extra tickets? or know anyone?
Much appreciated guys. See ya at ISM and Evil Urges!
I just noticed that the week of these shows is also CMJ in NYC. There is going to be lots of shows to hit after these shows end and probably some day shows as well. I wish it was October.
Hey guys, desperately searching for 2 tickets to the Z show if anyone has any. It would be much appreciated! I'm coming up from Atlanta for the ISM and hopefully Z shows!!! ;D
Will pay cash or paypal. You can reach my cell at 404-808-9930. Brad.
I think tickets will get easier as the shows get nearer. I know i may have 1 extra to Z and Evil Urges.
Flights booked, apartment booked (5 blocks from the venue!), passport updated. On a plane 8 weeks from today...
And just when this trip couldn't get any better, it looks like Pearl Jam will be playing Bridge. So the difficult decision to miss the Evil Urges night is gonna end up alright... So thats now MMJ, Neil Young and PJ over a 7 day period. That dripping noise I hear is my brain melting out of my ear in anticipation...
56 days til lift off! :)

If any of you have done CMJ before, I'd be curious if you have any tips or pointers. I've done SXSW several times; is it sort of that same format?
Thanks in advance :)
Hey all! Too many pages to back read...
What does the pre-game look like for the NYC shows? I will be at the ISM->Z->EU run. We should all get together..
Let me know if something is already planned!
Hey all. Bummed to have to make this post...but not going to be able to make the NYC trip after all. I listed the tickets at face +ebay and paypal fees. Hopefully someone can avoid scalper prices.
If any of you need a pass or know of someone looking...please help me out! Thanks for the help ya'll.

If any of you have done CMJ before, I'd be curious if you have any tips or pointers. I've done SXSW several times; is it sort of that same format?
Thanks in advance :)
Never done SXSW or ACL but I interned at CMJ in 2005, helped with the band selection.
It is my impression you'll get a A LOT more college and indie bands than you would at SXSW or ACL, or at least there's a bit less of the "MMJ is playing and debuting new songs, so good luck getting in" type events. So in other words, there's a bit more crowd distribution across the entire marathon instead of super-hyped sets that everyone everywhere flocks to.
Keep your ear out for label showcases with surprise shows, and best of all, in my experience nothing ever really sells out in advance, but you need to get to certain buzzed/hyped shows early to get tix, especially if you don't have wristbands.
Of course, this could all have changed this year if they attract some super-huge headlining act.
That's good to know...thanks choder.
SXSW is pretty much all college/indie bands...I don't think I'd be able to make any of the "big" shows anyway due to the T5 shows, but I wouldn't mind checking out some smaller shows during the day or after T5. Assuming there's gas left in the tank, that is!
I signed up for the CMJ mailing list, so we shall see... :)
I guess I'll need to read thru this thread since I'll be at T5 x 5 now 8-)
Thanks eleaf! They wont go to waste

Not to contradict you but I feel the need to add some additional information here. I lived in NYC for 6 years and did CMJ every year. I now live in Austin and have been doing SXSW before I even moved here. CMJ is really like a smaller SXSW with a lot fewer bands playing. But the bands typically are of a similar level. The major problem with CMJ is that all of the venues in NYC are spread out so it is hard to get from one to another in time to see lots of sets. It is almost better to pick one or two shows per night.
A lot of showcase do in fact sell out at CMJ and are hard to get into. Everything at the Mercury Lounge will be tough to get into. Also I would suggest buying tickets to any show you might really want to see especially shows at the Bowery Ballroom. The Sub Pop showcase that used to be held there sold out almost every year.
My suggestion would be look for one or two shows you might want to try to hit after MMJ and then head to those. Most venues will end at 2am. IN the beginning of CMJ there were very few day parties but over the past few years they have started to add these. A great NYC resource for live music is brooklynvegan.com. He typically has a few day shows and all of them are typically worth seeing.
Grazie midwesterner. Are the day shows free like they are at SXSW?
Also wondering if CMJ increases the likelihood of some special guests...
just got off the phone with patrick, word is these shows are going to be only "Okay". He said they're feeling lazy and are going to phone it in. each show is only going to be 45minutes, regardless of album length because of Terminals curfew. NO ALCOHOL is allowed. crazy shit going down. I'll keep you updated as the news comes in.

hey bigsky can you do me a huge favor since I can't make it out there?
It tis but a small request. Whenever you or anyone you're around yells can instead of just wooing all the time can you throw in more than the usual "Fuck Yeah!!!!!!"'s for me? that's my favorite thing to yell at MMJ shows. FUCK YEAH!!!! WOOO!. maybe throw in a few loud OWW!!!'s for me. My final request is that you look at Tom square in the face for me and mouth the words "Sticky Loves You" in slow mo when he's looking at you, if that's even possible. If you could pull this off I should be able to converge my energy with all the chronic smoke that's in the air that night and mentally travel to venue. The chronic smoke has to have the right amount of fuck yeahs and oww's tho in order for me to appear via chronic smoke. Every single time you smell weed, even when you smoke it. that's me. right there under your nose, rocking hard. real hard. man I want to have a dancefest with you guys during cobra this year. (plays tiny violin)

This could be more subjective, but from my experience, the marathon typically will have a genre "theme", and there's never been a name I would consider as big (hence the "smaller than SXSW" type feel). Plus CMJ is way more college oriented. One year it was decidedly emo-ish and I perhaps in my humble opinion, the bands sucked, hence no real big names.
As far as the selling out, I only say that because I've been in the city for shows and only found out I was at a CMJ showcase after the fact (Dirtbombs come to mind, I forget the venue). It was definitely more crowded all around, but I was really just wholly unaware of the fact I was in the middle of the marathon.
So I guess the lesson is, who knows? Or maybe, YMMV? (Is that the right lingo?)
1500 bands over 5 days? Things could get crasssieee!
So Phish just announced a fall tour in the NE before, during, and after the terminal 5 run. My dear friend, whose apartment I will be calling home during the T5 run, is a HUGE Phish fan. I think she will be tempted to go to the Providence, RI show on 10/22. I have not spoken with her yet, but as payment for me crashing her pad, I bought her and her husband tickets for both the Z and Evil Urges shows. Therefore, I may just have 2 extra tickets for those nights. Will let the board know once she confirms her plans.....

Sweet can I stay at the apt too? ;)
Speaking of Phish, if anyone wants to roadtrip up to Amherst on Sunday after the T5 run...I'm your huckleberry ;D
I so want to go to these shows, especially after the 3 I just saw. Unfortunately, it's looking like it will take a miracle.

phish throws a wrench in things for me. i'd like to catch one of their shows, maybe providence or amherst, possibly atlantic city.
anybody else going to try for either of those? i have at dawn and TTF tickets, but none of the other nights yet.

No they don't but maybe they should. After all, it is Celine Dion. I mean you have to smoke marijuana cigarettes (I'm laughing just typing that) to enjoy this.

That and I think her fan base is strung out from drinking the blood of their own children and the dead. If you enjoy this, you have no soul. No offense.

I am thinking Nancy is full of shit and just playing with our emotions...here's a response of his from a different thread: "yeah i know hes joking. so am i
i don't mind the smell of weed at all"
Negative Nancy (aka hacksaw) would get his ass kicked at any show if he acted like he says he would. I am wondering how old Nancy is, both physically and mentally...he might be looking for just some acceptance from his peers. Instead he seems to veil his true feelings with out-lashes of hate. Sometimes people just need a hug...maybe if we shower him with praise, he won't be so rash. With my 3 year old, I sometimes have to kneel down to her level, give her a hug, and just let her know that I care...
Oh Noes... If there's going to be marijuana cigarettes at the shows in NYC then I may have to completely reconsider this whole trip! I'm only coming if its good wholesome family entertainment!! ;D

I heard before the show that someone would shout it, but I had ear plugs in and couldn't hear much crowd noise.
Of course, I was so blown away by Honest Man that I felt like screaming: "WHAT DOES IT MEAN????"
;D

Love it! Now I really feel like I was there. Priceless! ;)
I keep having the idea that this set of shows will be recorded and released as a box set, both CD & DVD. I just think that they have to...it's going to be such a special event.
I still can't believe this is going to happen... :D

not like when he smiles at me. it's completely different.
Booked the hotel yesterday! Midtown Manhattan, a few blocks from Central Park.
This is now real! One week is NYC in autumn is a hell of a trip,
add 5 historic shows by one epic band: possible life altering event!
And yes, a Box Set a few months later would be sweet (sorta like PJ in Philly last year)
:D :D

Thanks guys, happy to be here amongst my like-minded, Jacket-obsessed peers. I am unbelievably pumped to hear the opening bars of Heartbreakin Man to start it all off...

I would kind of rather someone just record the shows instead so I dont have to pay $75 for that ::)
After much deliberation, I've come to the conclusion that two shows isn't going to be enough. I've gotta get on board for It Still Moves.
However, the current hotel I'm staying at doesn't have a room available for the extra night. Anyone have any good suggestions for an affordable room on Thursday night? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Try The Riverside Tower Hotel. Its not the Ritz but it has affordable rooms and a decent location (can walk to T5, close to C Park). Book online though, as the desk says nothing is left. Hope this helps. :)
ATTN: Mr. Hacksaw will be attending It Still Moves.
They're playing one of my favorite albums of all time in order...their is no way they can screw this up. I'm excited.
So who wants to meet up before the show?

ditto. i love the sound of that song on the album & am just about bursting from all the anticipation of what it's gonna sound like now, live & in person.
i'm probably looking forward to TTF & AD the most out of the 5 nights. love all the albums, but i'm just that little bit more excited to hear the old OLD stuff.
AD is the one that I am drooling for although each will obviously be up there with the best shows ever.
hope we get to meet up again for these shows that will be filled with crazy folks that might do something nuts like wait by the band's bus after the show just to say hello or wait for them to sign a poster. people like that are nuts!
8-) ::) 8-) ::)

yeah, i'd NEVER do that ;D
it was an absolute pleasure to meet & hang out with you & your wife. by the way, she is only the 2nd beth i've ever known that i've liked, and i've known many beths. i adore that your mutual love for music helped bring you together & is still something you enjoy together. what a great couple. you guys rock! we will definitely have to hang out @ the T5 shows.
AD was the 1st mmj album i bought & i fell in love w/ them to this album. it's still my favorite, i play that quite a lot more than the others (and i love them all) and am so excited to hear & see this played live.
well we really enjoyed hangin' with you as well.
by the way, guessing from your "quote" that you are a fan of Mr. Waits as well. Never seen him live but LOVE his music.
See ya at T5!
Well it's official. Just bought my flight out from Oakland>JFK. Even though I've had show tickets since they went on sale, I've been somewhat in denial..the logistics are daunting. But, I said eff it, and just bought my flights. This is just going to be unbelievable. I'll be flying solo for the first 2 nights (and Carl show), my lady will be joining me for the last 3! Happy camper here.

I met her the same weekend I saw MMJ for the 1st time (High Sierra Music festival 06), we've been to both the Fillmore and MSG NYE's together. There was no way I was heading cross country for this without her, although she's missing the first 2 nights.

awesome. Should be a rawking wedding.
;D Dammit Penny you made me laugh.
I'm trying to get in a proper "wah-no-Ramble-for-me" sulk over here. ;D
i love penny
also wanted to share a bit of the chat we had with Patrick's wife, Bridgid, after the show. Seems she is having her own difficulty with getting off for the week of the T5 shows as she is a 6th grade teacher (in a catholic school).
Anyway, just wanted to share that -- just to communicate to those who aren't going to make it, even the drummer's wife is having a hard time trying to figure it out! She was such a sweetheart, and I regret not getting a picture with her.
She also shared some wonderful insider information about Patrick's culinary skills and his 18 hour pulled pork recipe.........YUM.
I would seriously just love to hang out with these people. :)
So invite us all to the wedding Penny!
Trish - I agree with your thoughts and sentiments on Patrick's wife based on that chat.
She was sweet, smart, fun, down to earth and just outright cool. Imagine if all the people you met for the first time were that outright nice and normal!
That conversation was one of the highlights of the post-show hangout.

A great, great night! Are you & Beth doing all 5 nights?
Ok, I'm really starting to get itchy feet for this now. Why can't it be next week instead of six weeks away? It's too long...

I'm going to all 5. Beth is only going to one, either the 1st or 2nd. Someone needs to be home with my son and our dog and she is being mighty kind to me by saying you have to go to all 5! I took her to Merriweather Post and Newport too so she is happy to let me have my moments or days as it will be.

good call, i love tom waits. sounds like gravel but writes some of the most beautiful songs. never seen him live either but that would be something else. he's... ummmm.... quirky?
yes, see you @ T5! thanks for the midnight ramble link in the other thread. that's my birthday & i just bought myself an early present :) are you guys going?
so happy for you to get tix for this once-in-a-lifetime event and on your birthday as well!!! Amazing. I didn't get tix and very sad but 5 at T5 will do nicely. I have tix in October also to see the Avett Brothers, Gaslight Anthem and the Old 97s and this was just too hard to work out.
Love TW--especially his first 4 or 5 albums. Never seen him live but have most of his records.
Guessing this will be about your best birthday ever!!!! 21 right?

hey capt,
there is a way to drink cheaply when you're OUTSIDE of T5. the meetup bar i found has great happy hour specials pre-show time (of course they charge an arm and a leg in T5 but who needs to waste time drinking and peeing during an MMJ show). also, you can find decently priced beers in any pub, just stay away from trendy places, lounges, a lot of the east village... you'll be able to tell the difference. there are a ton of bars in the west village that are cheap ...depending on what area of the city you're in, just look up pubs/bars and check different specials. i live here, i drink, and i'm pretty poor. it can be done.
:) ;)
Shall I bring some liquor, beer, weed and cigs to NYC from tax-free NH??? I will only charge 8 bucks a pack :D. Unless you have the service number in NYC its not that easy hooking medical grade.

never smoked cigs, havent smoked weed for 4 years (well, except after the Jacket show a couple weeks ago ;D)
I've been smoking much more weed ever since I quit cigs, which kinda sucks because it defeats the purpose of quitting to save money and I still immediately want a cig after getting high. Its all good though, to tell you the truth quitting has been alot easier than I expected it to be.
QuoteI've been smoking much more weed ever since I quit cigs, which kinda sucks because it defeats the purpose of quitting to save money and I still immediately want a cig after getting high. Its all good though, to tell you the truth quitting has been alot easier than I expected it to be.
hmm, perhaps you need to smoke a fatter joint? when I was younger I smoked for awhile but quit too. I agree with you, it was easy to quit but then again I didn't smoke two packs of reds a day or something either and had weed to smoke instead.
when you break down the science of what is actually happening and how long the effects last, a cig only gives you relief for about 10minutes. the antsy feeling is the withdrawal. Same with caffeine. The buzz you get from coffee is generally from the withdraw process. so it basically stresses your body out which makes your mind stressed. the mind will always try and find loop holes and ways to make things easier. I guess I just never understood the appeal other than people trying to look/feel cool or at class it was a social thing on break. people would have a smoke and talk. it's way easier to just get some herb, it gives me the stress relief I'm looking for and actually works. buying nice pot that will last for a week is cheaper than getting drunk one night at a bar I suppose. depending on the specials...
I also heard the tar in weed is heavier than the tar in cigarettes. the weed tar attaches to the cig tar and when you hack your shit out sometimes the herb helps rid your lungs of the evil cig tar. weed is healthy as fuck.

Capt, I can't find the old thread (maybe it's in this one a way's back, but here's the place) huge and cheap and centrally located:
McGhee's Pub
http://newyork.citysearch.com/profile/36913777/new_york_ny/mcgee_s_pub_and_restaurant.html
probably a 10 min walk to T5 (which is located in an area all the way on the west side w/not much over there)
not sure what everyone else is doing but a few of us are meeting up there before most of the shows
*i thought for joe's pub night, McSorley's would be a good meetup spot, it's a must see and it's right around the corner from Joe's. just an idea..

I'd love to quit my 2-4 butts a day but its hard. I still want a butt after every bowl, mostly. Obviously cannabis is a better and longer lasting high, but it is expensive unless you grow, which I can't currently. My friend grows for me and a couple other key people, so its worth every penny when you get to pick what goes in the garden.
Butts also fill the void when I can't burn or cover me when I don't want to be exposed in public (cause its still a felony where i live). I just need to occupy those ten minutes with something else and more productive. Smoking has become so criminal these days and parents are encouraging their kids to say in public "what stinks mommy?", "oh thats just someone killing themselves", "ewwww...". When the hypocrite is the parent who used to smoke who no longer has compassion for anyone other than their family, or respect the rights of others to kill themselves if they want too.
You can take the cigs out of me but never the cannabis.

I highly recommend J.Mac's for T5 pregame festivities.

It is one street over, and you can cut through the parking garage making the trip a one-minute walk -- if that.
It's certainly divey, but the prices are low and the proximity is unbeatable.

QuoteQuoteQuoteQuoteSo I havent been to NYC in like 4 years and that was only for a night....Stuff is expensive there, right? I have a feeling Im going to drop $300+ just on booze over the entire week
hey capt,
there is a way to drink cheaply when you're OUTSIDE of T5. the meetup bar i found has great happy hour specials pre-show time (of course they charge an arm and a leg in T5 but who needs to waste time drinking and peeing during an MMJ show). also, you can find decently priced beers in any pub, just stay away from trendy places, lounges, a lot of the east village... you'll be able to tell the difference. there are a ton of bars in the west village that are cheap ...depending on what area of the city you're in, just look up pubs/bars and check different specials. i live here, i drink, and i'm pretty poor. it can be done.
:) ;)
what is the meetup bar you found??
At this point Im planning on staying with my cousin up there since she told me whenever I come to NYC I can crash there (but havent told her bout this yet ::))....you think I'll be able to make it around town easy enough with the subway? I have no idea where she lives exactly
Capt, I can't find the old thread (maybe it's in this one a way's back, but here's the place) huge and cheap and centrally located:
McGhee's Pub
http://newyork.citysearch.com/profile/36913777/new_york_ny/mcgee_s_pub_and_restaurant.html
probably a 10 min walk to T5 (which is located in an area all the way on the west side w/not much over there)
not sure what everyone else is doing but a few of us are meeting up there before most of the shows
*i thought for joe's pub night, McSorley's would be a good meetup spot, it's a must see and it's right around the corner from Joe's. just an idea..
Cool...
How should this work out:

it's easy to get around here. get a daily or weekly metrocard and a map w/all the key sites on it. also, manhattan is pretty small..not hard to walk everywhere, too...

I dig this idea. Kinda makes the walk from Penn Station/FIT a bit more do-able :)

or jump on the A/C/E train to Columbus Circle.
it's close to central park, too (T5 is too for that matter) not too far

I'm counting on you penny. Make me a promise though...
Promise me... promise me you won't piss in a cup. okay? You're going to have so much fun don't forget about yourself!! smack jim's ass for me if you get the chance. If he's like "hey!" be like "Sticky did it".
jesus, 1 in 2? that's so gross. poor women. cervical cancer blows I hear.
let it be known: ordering new stickers: NOW! [smiley=beer.gif]
i would do anything for a mastered soundboard of all 5 nights. this is way too epic of an event for all the fans to not experience somehow? (did that make sense?) wish i could be there. i know yall will have an amazing time. someone scream " give it to Bo" for me.
I have an extra for TTF. I'll sell it for $30 + shipping (or I can meet you somewhere in NYC) which is a better price than Ticketmaster. I can't make it that Monday night and I don't want to eat the price of the full ticket. I'm also willing to trade the ticket for another NYC show- all offers considered. PM me!
Been a fan for the long haul... but 'Z' show at T5 will be the popping of my cherry!! Taking my lady and my sister... and we're all freaking out! Can't wait!
Terminal 5 is an awesome place!... seen a few shows there, most recent was Arctic Monkeys and the Mars Volta...
Wish I could see all 5... but one is better than none!
Enjoy your time everyone!
