Forecastle 2015

sad to see "knot comes loose" on there. it must have been a late scratch, 'cause it wasn't played.

fantastic show, but kind of a festival-friendly greatest hits setlist.......not that there's anything wrong with that.

Anytime the band plays, it's gonna be a good time, but I was expecting a much better song selection for a headlining hometown show.

Exactly. I was there, and it was great. But that set list should have met casual fans and diehards half way. The only song that I would consider rare was Run Thru.

There definitely wasn't a "bananas" only-in-Louisville moment.

Johnny Quaid for the encore and Conor Oberst helping out on Wonderful were about the only things out of the ordinary.

I was thinking there would be at least one rarity or a new cover.

Still good, but I doubt I'll be going to a another festival for a show (that's not in my hometown).

Nashville is up next for me.

I was going to type "Sometimes an MMJ show cannot be judged by its set list." Then I realized that removing "sometimes" from that sentence makes it ring true.  What they brought to that Forecastle stage last night was magical and epic.

i'm gonna assume (well, hope and pray) they decided to save any rarities and new covers for new year's eve at the yum!

Did anyone else get a copy of the MMJ cult pamphlet as they exited last night?!? MMJ references throughout!

agreed about the setlist, though it was the first time I have seen them in 2 years so it was also good to hear some of the new songs live. I would have loved to hear Knot Comes Loose!! And they did finish a few minutes before 12. However I did still get to hear a few of my favorite songs: Off The Record, Steam Engine and Phone Went West. Lay Low was great too.

The best part for me was the nonstop crazy energy of Steam Engine>PWW>Run Thru

We didn't attempt to get close up. It was still just so hot and I do not enjoy bumper to bumper bodies. So we were about halfway back on the far right and I was happy I had some short people in front of me and I could see. also, a lot of people left early. They truly missed the best part of the show!

No, but that sounds interesting.

Agree to this. One of the best 4 song run's possible.

Props for sitcom on that rail for 8 hours Mr. White.

Anyone care to upload this pamphlet? ???

Way to go Mr. White.  You are tough.  And a great photographer.  I'm glad you had a blast.

[GO4IT]

Thanks for all the reports.  I always love hearing people's reactions and some of the unique aspects such as Johnny and Connor playing with the boys last night.  And, Mr. White, I'm glad you got to the rail to take all of those great pictures for us.  Did you really "hold it" for 8 hours

Yeah, I really didn't have a problem "holding it". I was sweating so much, that I didn't have to worry about needing to go to the restrooms. Plus, I have been pretty big most of my life and have probably developed a very large bladder. If I need to, I can wait hours and hours and hours. Although, I do have the beginnings of "old man bladder" happening these days, I can still manage pretty well. Also, I do have more really good photos. I just have to take some time to go through all of them, write down the number of each really good one, upload them to Photobucket, click on the link and post them here (takes some time). I'll get some up soon. Plus, I still haven't uploaded many of my Chicago photos yet. Those three nights were awesome! I've got all sorts of unique shots. Nashville on Aug. 6th will be my last show for a while (waiting for Indianapolis, Lexington, Cincinnati, and Louisville shows to be added possibly in the not too distant future). After Nashville, I'll have been to 8 Waterfall tour shows! The biggest MMJ year for me, so far!

that's what I call dedifuckincation! Mr. White how many Jacket shows altogether have you seen? ??

Thanks for those great photos, Mr. White! I'd love to see those Chicago photos at some point. What a magical three nights they were!

I'm with you on the big MMJ year. Logging 7 shows + the Dark Crystal thing just this summer. It's pretty special to me, and not many folks outside of our world realize that.

Wish I would have seen you mr white. I was on the rail Jim side. Great show and glad to be able to get back on the forum. [emoji106]
