@mymorningjacket - "Start spreading the news..."

I also don't get the Roll Call email.   They said that "more detailed" info was coming Sunday about Monday's announcement.   How can you add detail to something not yet announced?  Don't understand.   I would have thought the info would come AFTER the announcement.   Or are we getting early leek of said announcement?!?!

This might be it. What I don't understand is why we are getting a pre-announcement for only tour dates. I know I shouldn't say "only" but they typically don't do that, right? They just post the show and send out an email announcement. Even for T5 they just sent out the e-mail, it wasn't a warning saying something big was ahead.

Hmmm...

i am deeply worried that it IS a new years eve show because ya know .. please don't make me pick which child i love best !!!!

early-mid december dates please!!!!!!

i dunno.. i think it will be the highest concentration of likeminded souls to spend a new years eve with.. last new years eve for me was kind of strange spending it in a place where i knew not a soul and spent my night floating around the scene here... meeting nothing but all the talkative drunks at every bar..

when i was staying in NYC for the week of T5... 12 days of time in NY.. i spent almost 3 days in a decent hotel room in the heart of Queens.. I jogged in the morning one day over the Queensboro Bridge and saw Manhattan just kind of slap me in the face.. scoped out the spot that i would spend 10 days with.. with 10 friends.. on 10th ave..

not to say i'm expecting anything like T5 to ever happen again.. i think i'm just recalling a memory of it..

new years anywhere would be nice.. a weekend trip extended out a couple days since the big party is on saturday night for NYE.. that is my wish

Oh man!!!! Dream big people, dream big! Thats what I'm doing!  My dream is multiple nights in the same NY venue!  ;D ;D ;D. I'm giddy!

My Morning Jacket are playing a one night only show in New Zealand on my birthday? Maybe? Hopefully?....... not likely...

[Penny Lane]

So here's what we know:


1. lp's tweet "Dec just got busier"  means there's a leg of the tour coming (this tweet was quickly taken down)
2. Dec 6th in Tulsa supports this, the only date to surface, right?
3. they can't play Radio City Music Hall, the Rockettes are there till Jan
4. The availability of the Beacon is 12/2-12/9  or 12/15-12/30
5. an announcement of the box set IS NOT worthy of an announcement of an announcement

so my final thought is a leg of the tour ending with a 3 night stand at the Beacon during 12/15-12/24...OR the fact that they're announcing the announcement means it's some kind of special fan based thing..possibly a smaller venue where Roll Call members have first access (that's a stretch)

I like the odds on the beacon 15th onward.....

dear god no, not T5 again. BEACON BEACON BEACON !! ... and damn those rockettes taking up RCMH  ::)

[oistheone]

Maybe it'll be more than just a show? Perhaps some other acts involved? Finally getting around to playing NYC this year is a big deal yes, but they sure are hyping this one up. I'm betting something a little extra may be in store.

3 nights at the Beacon would make my life

14 day Antarctican cruise house band starting on December 20th.  Patagonia anyone?

Yeah there's gotta be something special to get the annoying roll call email with info about more info coming about the big announcement. ;D

Maybe Joe Firstman is gonna open!

[The General]

Aaah kind of a bummer knowing the Nashville show is at Vandy.

Guess I'll make a trip to wherever NYE is this year  :D

where does it say that they are playing Nashville?

do tell :)

[Tracy 2112]

I hear they're breaking up... :-\

I think Penny is close with this one.  For sure, "December just got busier" and with the 12/6 report of Tulsa, for sure they will be doing another US leg starting the last month of the year.  They may well be announcing a T5 box set release around the holidays (a perfect give for that crazy mmj fan some of us may know) but the announcement has to be much more.  A show at T5 to celebrate the release would be awesome but given how "big" these guys have gotten in the last year, one show in nyc would not be enough.

The Beacon has been doing a bunch of "residency shows" (like NY's City Winery) and a multi-night gig at the Beacon would be a beautiful choice.  If any of those day's are free, start booking your hotel rooms soon. (Crispy- you can stay at my cabin).

Curious about the the Sunday announcement and if they announce a NYE show.  I think the chances of at least 1 or 2 December shows in NY (which includes Brooklyn) are good.  Not sure if a NYE happens in NYC again but if it is announced anywhere, I know I will see many of you good peeps there!

you all are making me giddy

The hole I see in the Beacon schedule is Dec. 16-29 on their official web site.  Five or so shows in there would be nice.

[WSS2]

I'll take what I can get but Beacon is far as nuts

There'll be some serious holes in MSG's schedule with no NBA season

Start spreading the news
I'm leaving today
I want to be a part of it, New York, New York
These vagabond shoes
Are longing to stray
And make a brand new start of it
New York, New York
I want to wake up in the city that never sleeps
To find I'm king of the hill, top of the heap
These little town blues
Are melting away
I'll make a brand new start of it
In old New York
If I can make it there
I'll make it anywhere
It's up to you, New York, New York. 

[e_wind]

I just really hope that they either don't play anywhere near Louisville OR they give me a reason to go to NYC other than a "regular" show. I want to see everyone, but I can swing the expensive and LONG trip for just a show
