RED ROCKS 2013 (JFW3) MUST HAPPEN

[MrWhippy]

This is the thread where we summon all our collective energy to ensure that MMJ plays at Red Rocks in 2013.

This year will obviously be pretty inactive for the band, but if they do anything it should be a 2 or 3-night stand at Red Rocks.  Imagine how many of us would make it if these were the only shows in 2013. 

This has to happen, so let's start the wishing/planning/political organizing now.

I like the way you think. 

I'm wishing/putting some positive vibes out there for this to happen right now, and will continue to do so until an announcement! 

First weekend in August seems about right to me.

I would love this!!!!

[Crispy]

I am in full agreement! However, I would wish for a mid-week run, so that we are all forced to take the entire week off, and we can have more time to spend running from mountain lions at the cabin.

[Penny Lane]

YES...YES ..YES

I love the idea of time at the cabin, but hope the shows would be weekend to maximize attendance and thus justify a 3-night run. 

Based on the fact that the two RR shows in 2012 didn't sell out (first night didn't), it might be hard to justify 3 in 2013, but if these were the only shows, and they were over a weekend, it could probably justify 3 nights. 

Also, I'm sure Red Rocks does good business on concessions and other things even when the venue doesn't sell out.

[MrWhippy]

So, weekend shows with time at the cabin either before or after.

I hope they do a show in Louisville sometime this year as well.  Seems perfectly doable to me!

[Shug]

Night 2 last year I wonder how much overtime they had to pay all the workers?  I remember one of them saying they'd never seen a show go longer, not even Phish!

I'm just fooling about that mid-week thing, Whipster. I'd be there for a few days on either side no matter what, so folks would be welcome to come up. Last year, everybody flew in for just the weekend and didn't have any extra days, whereas it was the other way (and only one show) the year before. A three-night run would be amazing, but yeah, selling those tickets might be an issue. This is all a pipe dream right now anyway, right? 

[e_wind]

Yes 

[jaye]

Absolutely yes please!

[ItBeats4Jew]

MUST!

[smhoffmann02]

YES! YES! YES!

[mahg33ta]

doesn't HAVE to be the week after Newport, either.   Just sayin'

It could be earlier in July, couldn't it?

[APR]

I'm in.

[LD]

Couldn't make last year, but won't make that same mistake twice!!! I'm in for 2013!!

[MrWhippy]

Fixed this for you, Crispy.

Ditto.

There's people from Jersey who would love a JFW3.  Especially if there's extra time for a Camp Crispy reunion.
