yeah, looks like a few people are on the hunt still... pit might be impossible cuz there's only 100 seats, and especially if you're lookin for 2 together.  i'll give ya a shout if i see/hear anything tho.   good luck!

Truly appreciate that ynwa, would be soo greatful if it could happen!!  I know that there are very few pit seats and know that the ones that have them are true Jacket fans and that's why i want to be in there with you fine folks, missed out on the pre-game for the MPP show.  So i want to be at this show and get there early enough so we all can pre-game/tailgate if that is ok with you all?  Thanks for keeping your eyes and ears peeled as far as looking for pit tickets for me!

THANKS AGAIN ANTHONY!!!!!  Once again catching magic moments..... you managed to catch the eye contact he made to me during, "I hope the Present for you/is glistening.. with notes that ring so true......" from 1:06 - 1:13.  Which, by the way, I feel may need chronologically corrected (it had to have been at least 60 seconds....or an entire evening, it felt like!!) (more noticeable full-screen  :P)

It makes me think he knows I always hoot and point at him during Smokin' From Shootin' when he sings "Who is now, committed to the Present, is it someone that exists?"   :-X  There's this whole cosmic thing going on, see...........

Awesome!!!  I remember my brother telling me how he liked the fact that Jim didin't sing the last tune and just let it hang for the song to carry out for just a bit longer.  Glad to hear that you captured that for me to reminisce on this night as it surely was a special one!  Video from right up front and i must say you did a great job at recording and filming each Carl and Jim during the right moments.  Bravo

No she wasn't but she did do half of "evil urges" from that night. That damn camera guy in the front area was in the way and she had a better view. I'll post that video tomorrow on my channel.

Glad everyone likes the video. The intro jim does is perfect for the song.

I had a question for any of you who were in the pit and waited early to get on the rail for the MMJ Merriweather show. How early did you get in line? 

We've got pit tickets for Wilco there next week, and I'm thinking about trying for the rail. 

Thanks.

[headhunter]

Nice to see this thread kept alive.

Not too many of us were on line prior to the gate opening (less than 20) and all of got the rail.  Wilco probably will be much more crowded is my guess.  I don't think we were on line more than 30 mins prior to opening.

I am seeing wilco this thurs and friday in central park and figure to get on line by 4:30-5 for the 7:30 show.

mr. whippy:  there are two entrances to MPP.  on the side opposite the parking lot there were about 12 of us at doors.  headhunter is right, the line will start earlier for wilco.
have a great time!  (crazy coincidence: while i was reading this "ashes of american flags" was playing on the shuffle.  awesome.  :) )

[MrWhippy]

Thanks you guys for the info. 

I don't want to make this into a Wilco discussion, but I'm a bit surprised that you both think Wilco is that much bigger than MMJ.  Seems about equal to me, but I guess that could change once Wilco's new album is out.

[ms. yvon]

it's not that wilco is bigger. people tend to come out a little earlier.  (i've lined up for a lot of wilco shows)
