They've completed some renovations since the band last played to include a completely new stage house w/ a rotating stage & new sound control system (put in after Calvin Harris untz'd untz'd too loud and pissed off the neighbors. SIDEBAR - EDM also caused the curfew at Red Rocks) I don't believe they've raised the roof yet but I couldn't find a definitive answer.

Also, it's awesome that the pictures in the MPP wiki are ones of Jim and Pink Floyd.

I can't wait to get back there as well and I'm looking forward to seeing some of those renovations. Hopefully they include some more fans over the pit and maybe a better system of keeping the pit from getting over sold/run.  :wink:

I'm sure they did a good job with it though. I remember when they did a renovation years ago and took out the bench seating and replaced it with theater style seating. They did a good job then so I'd imagine this time around will be just as good.

Definitely heard some of the untz untzing several miles away in 2015 and then less last year for sure.

Looks like a fun show but I will be in Queens, along with plenty of others, I'm sure. :wink:  :beer:

under 2 months!

:thumbsup:

Can't wait!

YES!  We need some good things to look forward to and thankfully MMJ shows are on the horizon.

Has anyone here been to MPP this year?

I don't even know if their concert season has started yet but I was curious about the renovations. I know they were doing the backstage area and I think the concession/bathroom area as well but I was mostly wondering about inside the pavilion itself and if anything had been done to that.   :beer:

Do we know whether there will be early entry for the shows this summer?
