I guess I'm one of the few that preferred Port Chester to Red Rocks, as much as I enjoyed both performances.  (To be clear, I did not see MMJ during their two-night stand at RR.  It was another gig - with The Black Keys opening, if I recall correctly.) And Boston NYE was entertaining, but paled in comparison to what I'd just seen.

I may be MX bound, but another run in PC would be hard to resist.  I just need enough notice to get a second job... :cheesy:

You are not the only one who preferred Port Chester to Red Rocks (And I loved, loved, loved Red Rocks). Also, I totally agree about NYE except I have to say it was perfect for what it was - the best NYE show I've seen.

Yup. 2011 RR was great, and 2012 was beyond amazing.... But for some reason those PC shows were just the best time I've had at any MMJ extravaganzas.
don't rock bottom, just listen just slow down...

Out of curiosity..

What row were you in in the loge? 

Were people mostly sitting, or standing?  mix of both?

Were those tickets hard to get? 

My girlfriend is very short, so we went for the rail every time last year but personally I like to be at least 10 rows back to get the sort of experience you are talking about. The balcony seems like the way to go but for PC i wasn't taking any chances.


I had lodge for night 2 and GA for nights 1 and 3.  I loved all three nights and shows.  Night 1 I couldn't get there early and was by the soundboard.  Night 3 I got there early, hung out with great Forum folks and was right by the rail. 

Being in the Lodge was different and pretty much just as great (exception being the lack of camaraderie and fun factor of being with Forum die hards for hours before and during the show).  The sound was incredible upstairs!  The views were great.  And seeing the crowd below and the images above and to all sides was spectacular.  I got Lodge thru Roll Call.  If they do another run like that I would go early one night to be up close and hang out.  And soak it all in from the Lodge on another night.  Here's hoping that actually occurs.

The visuals they did at the Cap were amazing. I was GA all 3 nites near the soundboard. Just dont forget to look up and around if you dont do the lodge/balcony

whatever it is...if anything...we will know very soon. this time last year was about the time we found out...i'm doing my best to get a confirmation early like i did last year so that I know what to do for my holiday schedule....last year i was in the right place and right time with the right person that I happened to have much more in common with than I initially thought and happened to ask the right question...so luckily I knew early and could go ahead and submit my schedule...since the band isn't touring right now that's gonna be a lot harder to pull off

I expect a deluge of music-related announcements (both album releases and fall/winter tour dates) over the next few weeks, now that the summer is unofficially over. I have my fingers crossed that a MMJ Cap residency is part of that, and have budgeted accordingly.

Port Chester would be my pick again. It was perfect.

It would be mine as well.  :cool:

High praise to say PC was perfect, but I totally agree. It was!


it really was. the small town thing made everything so easy. I loved that.



to the other peoples: RR is the best venue of all time, but comparing them are apples and oranges. I truly believe The Palace is one of the best theaters in the country.
I agree Eric, I love the Palace.

Well, Bridge School is one date, let's end the week on a high note by rolling out the rest, boys!

The album coming out Winter/early Spring would surprise me a great deal.  Interviews earlier in the year estimated a Summer 14 release.  That was still when they were planning on taking the Summer completely off, before Americanarama happened.

That Jimmy Kimmel performance does seem weird though considering they have nothing but OBH to promote right now.  An album announcement or tour announcement would make that make more sense.


Also insert obligatory T5 box possibility here

The JKL performance is Jim, not MMJ... so I'd imagine he is simply promoting the fall left of his tour...

Does the fact that the Cap doesn't have any shows scheduled in the Christmas through New Years give this rumor much more credibility?

Credibility, nah but it does increase the chances a bit!

I think I'm done seeing MMJ as an opener. Probably the only exception would be if they had not been touring for a while, this was a one off, and the only chance to see them for the foreseeable future.

Not an opener, a 3-way collab.  :grin:
