MMJ 2011 Tour - Potential stops

[LowdownCheatin]

Wondering what's everyone's thoughts on a potential 2011 tour to showcase the new album. I'm sure they'll hit up some of the major festivals, but as a native of New Orleans I'm just hoping for a stop here in NO. With the Saenger re-opening up sometime this year (Katrina damage), I cannot think of a better place to catch a MMJ show. Legendary venue, legendary show.

Thoughts, comments, discussion on other stops or venues?

10 night run at the Great American Music Hall in SF.  This is what I'm hearing.

I heard they're playing a 3 hour set in the Oval Office consisting entirely of different versions of only one song.

I'm in NoLa too and while they're probably not coming back to the Fest, I'm hoping that they play down here again soon.  Saenger would be great, but it doesn't seem like there's any work being done.  How crazy would a benefit show at Tip's be?  ;D

I heard she's signed on as the new touring bongo player for the band. 2011 will be the beginning of what will eventually be known as MMJ's equivalent of the "Donna Years"

I have to agree, Crispy. It'll be a good year to be a Jacket fan.  ;D

And that makes two actual lols for the MMJ board today.

Well done, folks.  Well done.   ;D

Is that really their combo name? If not, that's awesome.

She looks like a wet rat. I don't like her one bit.

Odd connection time:

The girl who does my wife's hair at the salon also does the hair for snookie's boyfriend, who is from the same town as my wife.

I am guessing there will be some Texas stops this tour. SXSW or Austin in the spring.
