Guess the first song at OBH

[ericm]

I imagine, like last year, they'll close their third night with One Big Holiday.  However, I found OBH as an opener to the three shows I saw in spring of 2010 to be quite epic!  They did it on the first 4 stops of that tour, with a Who-esque instrumental intro.

Here's the first night intro, Alabama Theatre, Birmingham...

No doubt, they did it again at MPP in 2010.  One of my favorite MMJ shows ever.

Wasn't that Kentucky Derby Day too?

sure was! the eminence front intro was so awesome

Listening to the tapes from last year, and reading about peoples' experiences, it seems the vibe is a little more laid back than their usual show demeanor.  I dont think they will go with a real solemn opener and will instead opt for a more carefree kind of tune. 

So with that, im going to throw a curveball and go Evil Urges.  It will be a signal to all to expect the unexpected. 

[gluvmiller]

I'm by no means seasoned, but I would expect a pretty upbeat opener. The reason being is having War on Drugs as the opener. They're gonna come out guns a blazin' so I can't imagine Jacket coming out to follow with something slow.

I'm gonna have to agree with Seth on this one, Rollin back, At Dawn, and The Dark in that order to open with. (Maybe a "where to begin")

Although, opening with OBH and getting it outta the way, so ta speak
(not a hater), leaves some mystery for what they'll close with...?

And in agreement with gluvmiller. after War on Drugs, they might come straight out the gates GUNS BLAZING!

Just 3 guys opinions?

[werduga]

Didn't they open night 2 with the dark last year? At Dawn or Rolling back would be cool. I like the idea of opening with OBH, my feet might not touch the ground til the end of that show if the do!  They could open and close with OBH, they did play it twice in the T5 shows granted those circumstances were a little different than 3 sets in Mexico.

[dookie shoot bandit]

I don't think they would open with a rarity or cover, so my guess is they open with: evil urges

[easy way]

I'm hoping they come out of the gates hot!

It's About Twilight Now

[volwes]

At Dawn would be bad ass. I'd blow a gasket.

[rmpotsy]

i guess new song

[JerseyDan]

ANYTIME.

[gluvmiller]

I'm going to tweak my original call of OBH to open first night. I still think that's the opener but they won't finish it. They'll then finish it at the end of first set third night. I think that would be a wicked cool sandwich.

[BH]

How about opening with a cover of Sun Kil Moon's "War On Drugs Suck My Dick."

    Looking forward to seeing you Dave!  Our last drink together was in that pub in Louisville at Forecastle years back.   Hope we get to share a drink or 6 in Mexico.

Johnny Yac will buy them.

Gonna be great getting the old gang back together!!!    I tried to not think about it for a long time but now I'm getting just over the top excited.    Seriously if you would have asked me to describe my own personal heaven 5 years ago, it would have looked a LOT like  OBH.

This may have been said, by I am calling Where to Begin! or At Dawn - still will never forget when the band came to Chicago after Jim's fall in 2008 and opened with At Dawn.....

[Clarkwork]

At dawn. Because At Dawn we ride again.

[EverythingChanges]

Think they'll go beyond their 2 hours?

Excited to hear all about the show!

[dmooney99]

I'll go with Dancefloors.

what time does the show start?  What's the time zone there?
