Wish you could be there too, Val. It was so good to see you, and rock some shows together again. 

Looking forward to the next time, and I'll be sure to have that Jerry shirt ready to go!

I just purchased a ticket for 6 PM entry.  Would love to join you all for a pre-show meetup.  I can try to arrive in the city by 4 or so.  Can't wait to see all of you (and Jim) again.

Cool beans. 

I knew if you could swing it, you'd be there too. I was going to pm you to ask, but you beat me to it. 

I'll plan on being up there for 4:00 as well. Can't wait!

Ditto.

[Dillsnufus]

Damn I never get to go to these things. Too expensive and during the week? 

[MrWhippy]

So I know the invitation for this says it's a solo show, but do people think that actually means Jim will play solo?  If so, that could make this really cool and special. 

I think this could happen, as this show might not be part of his full tour, and his set the next day at the Tibet House thing is likely solo.  So, maybe he won't bother bringing in the band for just this one show. 

I'd be very happy if this ended up as a solo Jim show.

I held off for now. 115$ is a bit steep for me and I have a big project due at work on 2/20 (due that night by 8pm!) Hoping to meet up with you guys before if i can get this finished.

I also wonder (like above) if this is the NYC show on the tour or its separate..?

I also wonder why Grnd Cntrl always screws up everything..*sigh*

I'm sorry, Penny, but I'm very unimpressed by your work excuse.  I have to give a presentation on 2/21 in DC, starting at 8:30 AM, and will be taking the overnight bus back after the show to make sure get back in time for it.

I'm impressed! This project could be my job if I don't finish--it's a report to the Fed Govt by 8pm ....but an overnight bus, WOW! (bowing down)...i'm working night and day (obviously  minus my 5000 posts) up until then so hopefully it'll be completed..

it would be nice to know if this was the start of a tour, or a one-off thing, if more dates will follow, incl another NYC date or if this is THE nyc show...

and it would be nice to know if it is possible to just see the show, rather than this whole play/reservation extravaganza. 

[MrWhippy]

I don't think that this date is a part of the proper tour.  This show is just over one month away, major tours don't generally get announced with that little advance notice.  It's usually 2-3 months at least.

I think the proper tour will be more like March April, anchored around a few festival appearances (Coachella, Jazz Fest).  Thus, there would likely be another NYC area show on the proper tour.  This is also why I hold out hope that this show might be unique/different from the proper tour.

I would also guess that you can't just get a ticket for the show without the sleep no more part, but that's just my guess.

you're so proper, Mr. Whippy   

[jaye]

I wonder if these tickets will go quickly.   I might be making a quick trip to nyc and it might just have to be that week.   :happy:

[ynwa]

Just purchased a ticket, 6pm check in for me too.  4pm pre-show meetup sounds fantastic!

Thinking about seeing JJ perform in this setting, following Sleep No More, makes me giggle.  Who knows what kinds of bizarre inspiration he'll treat us too.  It will definitely be a unique performance, to say the least.  If you're on the fence, just do it already!

[br00ke]

yea liz, so glad you'll be joining us. and ditto to what she said "if your on the fence, just do it!".

i think this show is a definite one-off and not part of the "proper" tour  :happy: it would be weird to have nyc's only show be a $115 ticket. alienates alot of fans because not everyone can afford that, ya know? my guess would echo what monsieur whip said, another show sometime in april or so.

If you're on the fence, just do it already!

I came on here to proudly proclaim that I had successfully talked myself out of making what would have been a very impulsive, foolish decision.  I then read the above words and went ahead and made the foolish and impulsive decision.

Bravo.

See you guys in February.

lil help please?  can someone send me the link?

Wahoo!!!  I love this!  See you in Feb, Stevie

I also agree with Mr. Whippy's & br00ke's thoughts.  I think this is going to be one hell of a one-off show.  Something close to otherworldly, I imagine.  Regular tour dates will follow, for sure.  Excited about the roll call already & look forward to seeing everyone on the 02/02!

[SauceGod]

After going to other worlds, I think this show would be perfect for some "goin to acapulco" as we all watch in awe in some creepy white masks....
