2.5 hour slot ! 

yeah, that's awesome. we're in for a treat.

saturday looks like a good day to park oneself in front of the main stage and leave only for beer, food, and bathroom breaks.

Dear lord, if MMJ, Conor Oberst, TTMOE or First Aid Kit collaborate in any way (and they should) don't tell me - I can't stand the heart break of not being there. 

TTMOE back in 2012:

FAK and TTMOE earlier this month:

And of course:

i'm seeing low-to-mid 90's for the weekend. i guess we shouldn't expect anything but hot and humid for mid-july in louisville.

looking like i'll have an extra GA weekend pass. $160. pm me if interested.

edit - pass sold.

[LBSUNFLWR]

if we could ever get it to stop raining maybe we won't be walking around in mud all weekend. 

[MrB]

My only complaint is sandwiching Sturgill Simpson between MMJ and WOD.
Should be a great weekend!

Also might need an extra tick for Sat/Sun if any extras out there.

[LBSUNFLWR]

10 and 20% chance of rain makes me feel so much better. A little rain storm here and there over the weekend isn't the worst. Hope the ground has a chance to dry the next few days.

Sturgill is way less important to me than War on Drugs or MMJ, so I'm just planning on catching some of his set but not missing the end of WOD or the beginning of MMJ. Saturday looking the best day for me by far. Friday is weak. and closing out the weekend with Tweedy and then Panic sounds great.

Sent u a note MrB

[austinpsychnut]

Does anybody know if the fest (this show in particular) will be streamed online somewhere?

[LBSUNFLWR]

As of now we are looking at:

Fri -  Hi 95/Low 74     0% chance of rain and partly cloudy
Sat - Hi 94/Low 74    10% chance of rain and partly cloudy
Sun - Hi 95/Low 75    10% chance of rain and sunny

and of course that's not factoring in the humidity. Think you will find me near one of the water stations very often.

[slappymoe]

and now weather.com has us up to 97, 96, and 98 degrees.

jesus, the heat index will approach 105-110. let's hope they're wrong.  and god help the performers.  I hope they're more accustomed to such heat than this big baby.

oh well, it is what it is. just gotta deal.

[LBSUNFLWR]

on the news this morning they said 105 with the heat index. Some clouds would be appreciated. be prepared with sunscreen and some sort of bug repellant!! I found bug repellant wrist bands I am planning on wearing all weekend. And will have OFF spray and Sunscreen and a hat.

also remember that you can bring in an empty water bottle to fill up at the water station vs. spending $5 for a little bottle at the food vendors.

Getting so excited but trying to not worry about the heat and wet muddy grass.

[kholl44]

95 degrees sounds like perfect Jacket weather!
Sure the heat will be miserable but I still plan on getting there 8 hours early with my camelbak and sticking it out knowing it will be worth it when I'm watching from the rail... I'm hoping the heat will keep it from getting too crowded too early before The Word or War on Drugs too

[LBSUNFLWR]

definitely excited for The Word!! Luther is one hell of a guitar player! :)

[MrB]

Expectations? With a few days off and well rested plus time to practice a bunch of covers, I think we'll get quite a show!

and some guest appearances! :)

[ShootinfromSmokin]

The wait is almost over! Let's dance!

[AlwxanderD10]

Any chance at an MMJ poster for the show or should I just expect to buy the forecastle poster? I believe they had one for bonnaroo...

[parkervb]

hoping there's some couch tour going down for this.

[tippitoes22]

Johnny Quaids in town!!!
Hoping for the 3 guitar attack on a FULL...MASSIVE RUN THRU!!!
