Definately hitting up the DC show and might actually hit up the Asheville show as I've been looking for a reason to hit up one of my favorite southern towns.

The Orange Peel is a great venue as well, if you've never been.
My heart can't wait to meet you on the other side.

Damn, Jim's band is a Louisville supergroup alright! Awesome to see Ratterman in there! Really excited to hear how these guys (and girl) sound. Ain't nothin I love more than a woman on bass. I don't think there's any way they won't bring some serious grooves.

First Ave!  That makes four shows in April (so far)--Thao & the Get Down Stay Down, Clutch, The Black Angels & Jim James.  Spring fever is going to be strong this year!

I am definitely interested in Philly - probably the only show I could realistically make. I saw Tame Impala at Union Transfer not too long ago and it's a pretty cool place. I just hope I don't log on at noon Wednesday only to find there aren't any tickets available for roll callers again....  :undecided:
So, I do believe.....

According to LEO, the band includes "drummer Dave Givan, bassist Alana Rocklin, keyboardist Dan Dorf and Kevin Ratterman on percussion and samples."

Hadn't seen this posted yet.

FYI

wow, that makes me far more excited. The only of those that I don't know is the bassist, and the rest are bad ass.
don't rock bottom, just listen just slow down...

Royale (Boston) : $26 advance / $29 day of show

Holy crap Ratterman with the beats on these new songs!   That is great news!
I'm digging, digging deep in myself, but who needs a shovel when you have a little boy like mine.

Im thinking about re-enrolling into Roll Call, but after paying for this semester, money is tight. Honestly, is it worth buying a Roll Call membership to be able to possibly get the first stab at tix?

I know its Jim's solo tour, though::)
The time is near, to come forward with whatever killed your spark.

I'm going to the McKittrick show... And I'd love to go the Webster Hall show... But money doesn't grow on trees and it's a tight fit in my schedule. What do you guys think?

These pretzels are making me thirsty.

C-bus is the only doable show for me.  But that's better than nuthin' I spose...  :beer:

I do like the Newport.  Saw Dark Star there a couple of times.

Hopefully I can make it down for the show and we can drink the beer that we never got to have in Detroit!
some get stoned, some get strange, sooner or later it all gets real.

At least we got a short meet-up after the show!  But meeting for that beer definitely sounds good to me!  :beer:  My wife and I usually hit up Elevator Brewery and Draught Haus before we see any show in C'bus.  Good beer and good food.  It's on High St. near the Arena District and about 2 miles from the Newport.  There are also plenty of places within a short walk of the Newport as well.  We can figure things out closer to the date...

just don't try to drink there...or drink too much...or look suspicious...they're WEIRD there..my friend got padded down because he was 'going up and saying hi to too many people' and to drink liquor you have to buy a membership and go to the club downstairs (and you can bring one guest in) PS i love the venue but they're STRANGE..
but come on...there's nothing sexy about poop. Nothing.  -bbill

Hmmm never had that issue or had any friends who have, must've been a weird night.  Great venue though for sure!
Daylight is good at arriving in the night time

ACL just announced their tapings for the spring. No Jim and since they are doing a taping that night he probably won't get added later.

That is weird.  I've only been there twice but...I think I was even the weird guy there one time...but never been harassed.  I'm more of a beer guy so I don't usually go downstairs, but we went down there last time...they do make some pretty tasty beverages, but they are $$$ (to be expected).  More than anything I was amazed how empty it was last time I was there.  White Denim and Maps & Atlases and the place was EMPTY.  Maybe 100 people?
We could.

I wouldn't under estimate the hometown advantage here. There's a reason why the only arena they've played other than MSG is the yum center

Kind of strange to hear that though as Asheville is considered the "Paris" of the south and the local college is pretty much a hippie haven.  I figured the peel would be a pretty laid back venue.  I grew up about 2 hours away from here in VA so I'm used to the unusal ways of a lot of the southern towns can be so hopefully we can get around that whole ordeal.  I'm still really stoked about the venue as a lot of people I know say its an awesome place to see a show.

I have a meeting today at noon when the Roll Call sales start, I'm trying to figure out if I need to take a quick exit to order tickets.  What exactly is the advantage of ordering today for a place like the Orange Peel?  Is it just to assure you get a ticket, I wouldn't think it would sell out super quick.  If they allow early entry for a show to Roll Call is it for all Roll Call members or just the ones who preordered tickets?
