Can't wait.  The Pabst is THE place to see JJ!

[justbcuzido]

I am really excited for y'all. Keep us posted with set updates. I need to live vicariously through those in attendance. I really like the venue, I used to go their alot while I still lived in Chicago.

Have Fun!

[Cameron]

Are they doing this for every show?

I've been told its venue-specific and not necessarily going to happen at every show.

Thanks Johnny!

Was Moving Away solo or w/ band? 

Also, Bermuda and Wonderful were better songs for the encore imo.

Interesting encore. Good to see it being mixed up, but I agree about Bermuda. Hoping that means he plays it tomorrow night at the vic! That's one song I have heard live yet and it was the first song I ever heard by them!

I'd die if I saw Bermuda live, I still haven't gotten the chance to do so.  I would really enjoy Wonderful too, as it is probably my favorite song from Circuital and it is the only Circuital song I haven't seen live.

Thank You Too would go really well with the overall sound of the new album as well; I wouldn't be opposed to hearing that as an encore.

Perhaps Jim will play a different MMJ song every show?

With my luck he will play Look at You solo!

Nothing against the song but I think it's not very common and in 4 shows I've heard it twice ha. Same with Honest Man, pretty rare song that I've heard 2 shows in a row from 2 different tours no less

Haha I'd freak out if he played that.  My White Whale list in no order are these:

Strangulation
Lay Low
War Begun
Thank You Too
Look At You
Touch Pt. 1
Evil Urges
They Ran
IWBTWYD
Bermuda Hwy
O is the One

Those are probably the biggest ones for me atm

I would be disappointed if he played HotBM, or Day is Coming and no other MMJ song, since I've seen those two plenty.

Not a bad white whale list at all!

Makes it even better since someone coming here looking for a setlist might skim and see that list thinking it was from milwaukee and freak out haha

[johnnYYac]

Yup.

Now, Movin' Away was originally written as part of the score for Gods Man, along with TDIC, so - while not a favorite of mine- I see its inclusion making perfect sense.

So, aside from the setlist, how was the show?

[JDUB]

I thought the show was amazing. The album sounded awesome live. Cool lighting behind he band. I was expecting (& would have preferred) more MMJ songs in the encore. Moving Away was acoustic. MOF songs sounded great too.

[timandre22185]

How long was the show?  Judging by the setlist I'd  guess about an hour and a half to an hour and 45?

[CHIMMJFAN]

Show was great! I really think the album comes off way better live. A lot of extended songs, of course Jim dancing away throughout most of the set!
The show lasted about two hours (including the encore). I really thinking he will alternate one MMJ song to start the encore. He did "Moving Away" by himself with the acoustic. I have never seen "Dear God" live so that was a treat.
Jim was definitely a lot more fan interactive this show touching people's fingers in the crowd (E.T. sytle, lol).

I can't wait for the show tonight in Chicago.

The performance was amazing.  Not that they were bad in NYC, but they have really improved in a of ways, especially in the overall production quality. 

I will say...my girlfriend and I got there early for the first entry so that we could get in the first row of the balcony, and during 'new life,' we were basically completely overcome with positive emotions to the point where we absolutely had to get up and dance.  We were both having an amazing time.  All of a sudden i get a tap on my left shoulder and a stern face looking at me from the aisle, "Hey man, you need to sit down.  I can't see, none of us can see, you're blocking our view."  And I said, "We're at a concert, if you want to see all you have to do is stand up (i'm 5'11'', and the balcony slopes, this is pretty reasonable).  He repeated what he said, i repeated what I said, and he left and shouted "f### you" on his way back to his seat.  It is what it is i guess.

I hate when people complain about me standing at shows. Get over yourself and show jim some respect. If your legs work, stand up!

How easy is it to get rail? How early should I try to get in line at Columbus?
