13. When're @mymorningjacket playing NY next? There aren't any dates listed on your tour calendar.
A. Still in the works but by fall. That's a long time to wait for a decent slice of pizza.

I'm up for it!  8) 

How about his answer to #9? ;D


9. Amen to that. Will any of MMJ's 5 nightstand shows at Terminal 5 last year ever see an official DVD/LP release?
A. Yeppers. Focusing on Circuital now. But there's some plannin' bein' done. Some mixes cooking up.

[Dillsnufus]

I need to see them on nye again......MSG!!!

[e_wind]

Maybe he was dodging giving away a MSG NYE show.

[subinai]

id be surprised if they did another MSG NYE show

[walterfredo]

I kind of agree.  I'd fly back out for Radio City NYE, that would be sick.  Not even sure if anyone can get RCMH on NYE, I know it's pretty booked that time of the year.

And yes, T5 is possibly the worst venue known to man. 

[WSS2]

despite all the T5 hate, it is one of the easiest venues in NYC to get a beer....not counting MSG because they cut off the booze at like 10:00 / 10:30 which is RIDICULOUS

Plus, the food on the T5 roof is pretty awesome.  You're never going to see MMJ to play bowery, music hall, highline, webster hall....hammerstein is a'ight, and roseland is is the same bucket....best buy theatre is just weird....when you boil it down, T5 is one of the better indoor venues to catch MMJ simply due to size and ease of staking out a spot (if you're willing to get there early)...roseland maybe a close second.  MMJ in MSG if there's a pit section seats in MSG blow.....WAY overpriced regardless of where you are

Thus concludes a little love for T5

I couldn't disagree with you more on T5. The place blows,imo. It's definitely not easy to get a beer there during the show if you got there early and are camped at the rail. Pre show, maybe.

Roseland is a much better venue, with better accoustics too,imo.

As far as MSG goes, the energy in that place for shows makes it worth every penny to me. The only bad seats there to me are the upper 400's. I'd love to see Jacket play there again, NYE or any other night.

Different strokes,I guess. ;)

[WSS2]

fair points - I think roseland would be a good substitute.  See your point on camping in the front - one of the secrets of the venue.  The railing in front of the first floor bar is one of the best places to watch from in the whole venue.  Slightly elevated, clear view, fairly close (in the grand scheme of things), and if you have at least one other person with you, you can take turns getting beer from right behind you.  Pulled the railing for all T5 shows, works very well....didn't get a banana, but had a great experience

You're right about that. I was tempted, but we had spots on the rail, and couldn't pass that up. Besides we did most of our drinking at McGees and before T5 got too crowded. ;)

The bartenders at that bar were pretty cool too. The one guy was a big Yankee fan and kept me up to speed on the scores during the playoffs last October.

I wonder how the sound is there with the overhang? Any problems? Whenever I was at that bar, there wasn't anyone on stage, so I couldn't tell.

T5 is one of the better indoor venues to catch MMJ

you sir are crazypants !!! but each to their own naturally :) the only way i survived T5 was being on the rail up front each night which was just luck.

if it was fall and had to be an indoor show .. RCMH would be my obvious #1. roseland isn't bad .. i always go for upstairs and get a spot on the center railing and the bar just a few feet behind me. first spot i ever saw MMJ  the beacon is a great old venue but it's become a no fun factory .. security is very stern and last time i was there i kept being told to sit down. i had front row tix and told everyone that they needed to learn how to act at a rock show  ;D

i say a big no no to MSG. seeing them there felt a little .. i dunno, empty. it's just too big a venue for which i won't complain. i'm definitely cherishing MMJ not quite being big as say .. phish.

[subinai]

would be cool if they did a roll call only show at say... bowery ballroom.
