I just checked the TM website for the 7/20 Mansfield show.  Sections 1-2-3 all have a bunch of scattered seats available.  And 4 through 8 have a bunch available.  And 9-15 are almost all empty. 

Maybe it will sell more in the next couple weeks, but these guys are going to be playing to a pretty empty pavillion, which is sad.

That's about normal, Dylan doesn't draw too many people anymore.
I wonder why we listen to poets when nobody gives a fuck

Looks like there will be roughly 5K in Peoria today.

from what i've seen it's been pretty empty for jackets set. fans in the pit and then wasteland until you hit the front of the lawn. would imagine it will be the same in mansfield.
Oh shit, run!

Americanarama sucks!  I really don't get all the positive reviews.  Take that back, Americanarama sucks after 6:30pm.

In Indy, Bob actually had the biggest crowd, but lots of empty seats.

Another reason I love MMJ so much, they just bring it no matter what.  Even at a shit so called festival where they play in the middle of the day for an hour.  110% , maybe thats why I didn't enjoy any other part, Wilco about put me to sleep and Bob made me leave early to head back to the camp.

Americanarama as a whole sent me home on Saturday, when I had planned on bee-lining to Cincy.
Y'all got any disco ball back there?

I wonder if I could swap tix with a Dylan fan for Toronto or Buffalo?  I could go in the pit for MMJ and Wilco, swap and then hang on the lawn for Dylan.  Wait. Who's kidding who?  I'm leaving after Wilco.   :evil:
Babe, let's get one thing clear, there's much more stardust when you're near.

Tuscaloosa was about 1/3 full for mmj and wilco, filled on up by Dylan but most people aren't  even home from work when the first act starts if they aren't traveling, it's really hard to get a big turnout mid-week...Atlanta and Nashville were a very different story...packed in there like sardines towards the front but not too crowded...good venues for the event...all MMJ shows should be GA though...that's a fact

It was also the calmest crowd I've ever seen at a show. Very little enthusiasm.

We definitely made enough noise and were noticed...and graciously rewarded I might add

Very graciously. I'm grinning just thinking about it.

Ditto. As excited as I was to see Wilco, after MMJ's set they became kind of an afterthought to me.  I hate it because I was pretty pumped to see Wilco, but I love it because it shows how great that small slot of MMJ was.   :beer:
