ok, sounds good to me!  :wink:
though I can't say I ever watch SNL anymore.

I rarely watch as well, but if I'm not in the audience when they play again I'll certainly watch.

i dont see what the point of this would be? i would rather the band spend more time resting and touring and recording and chilling with their families than to be doing even more promotional shit, cause thats basically what an SNL appearance is at the heart of it: promotional. I dont think they need this right now, maybe late 2016 or something

how is that downer hahahah? i think a downer would be Jim's back giving out DURING SNL and second album off the table, longer shows with more rarities off the table....yeah im probably being a little toooooooooo dismissive ill admit that, but i just dont see how they need this. If any show, they should be the first musical guests on Real Time With Bill Maher :)

I mean they don't really ever go hard on television so I don't worry about him blowing out his back on TV. I would like to see them do a Daily Show performance some day. That would be a great audience for them.

you know what guys, ive had a change of heart. JohnnYYac has informed me that he got into MMJ from SNL 2008...thats a BIG sign that this band could use more exposure. They've worked tirelessly for where they're at, and i just got done signing that bastard and forwarding it on to 10 different Jacket friends of mine :) this petition should reach the number it needs very soon if we all sign.

the band deserve every chance of exposure, and while my original point was that they didnt need this, I dont see why it would hurt? You guys are right, songs like Big Decisions on SNL would garner them some more fans and if they played something like Tropics or Spring I could see fans running to them left and right. Basically what changed my mind was you guys saying WHY NOT? if the boys are up for it, lets get it on!!  :beer:
