Hey guys I know I'm new to the board but thought it would be cool to see who is all heading to this show and maybe we could organize a meetup of some sorts?

So I can happily say my lazy butt finally registered on the boards, I have been reading for years but finally I registered!

I've been a huge MMJ fan ever since my friend played "Just One Thing" for me!

I have traveled as much as I can to see MMJ and really as most of you probably experience, this band moves me in a way others can't.

I would love to see alot of you on the board at the Chicago show, I am going to be coming there with about 5 friends.

I got tickets in the Pit  RC Row BBB, has anyone had Pit tickets at the Auditorium?

Well this is my big hello to all the Jacket fans!!!

CHIMMJ, nice score!!!  There isn't a bad seat in the Auditorium, but yours just might be the best!   

Add alady and caseydog to the roll call...we are currently unsure of where our seats are  ;D

Also, I'd like to suggest Hackney's for a meet-up spot - unless there are a lot of us, then we may have to move it somewhere bigger.

I'll be there with two friends! Was able to get like 6th row tickets in the orchestra so i'm very excited!

Last time I was at the auditorium theatre I saw Wilco in like 2006 or something. Very cool place

[CHIMMJFAN]

Thanks for welcoming me all! Yeah I'm pretty excited to see MMJ up close!

I've heard great things about the acoustics in the Auditorium.

I'll be working that day but I should be in the city by at least 4pm, definitely using a half day! lol

This will be my first mmj show so im really excited just to have tickets.  Im a late bloomer into their music mainly due to the fact that I live in BFE. Anyways I heard them on sirius and have been hooked since. I lurked here to get a feel for the place and this is my kind of fan forum ;D I didn't manage great seats im in the middle balcony but again I'm just happy to actually get tickets.

[ALady]

Awesome!  Welcome littleacorn!  You couldn't have picked a better place for a first show - the Auditorium is known for having pristine acoustics.  Prepare to have your face melted! 

[johnnYYac]

littleacorn, my first MMJ show was in Boston and I was so far back, I gave up trying to "see" the boys and just let the music blow me away.  It was, at the time, the best live music experience I'd had in a long time, now outdone by other MMJ shows.  Sounds like the theater in Chicago is a special place where there will be no bad seat.  I wish I could join you.  Enjoy your first show and be sure to report back to this thread for a full report.  I love hearing folks share their first time. ;)

The first time i saw them was at the Vote For Change Tour in 2004, simply blew me away, the 3 songs they played were better that all of Ben Harpers and Dave Mattews' combined, after seeing them a few times after that, I cannot explain the feeling I get when I see them play live, unlike any other band.

Im gonna be taking my girlfriend who has never seen them. Who ever is in Orchestra R, youll see a grown man cry.

welcome to the camp! you will not be disappointed one bit. not by the music that you'll hear. not by the shows that you'll see. not by the people that you'll meet. there's something really real goin on here. glad you've joined. see you at the show (i'll be in the balcony too)

[Katydidnt]

Count me in! It'll be my fourth show, my first indoors. I really appreciate that the fellas are opening the tour in Chicago, makes my life convenient.

I finally registered after a year of lurking since 2011 seems to be the summer of the Jacket, hooray!
