Chicago Theatre - Chicago, IL (June 9th, 10th, & 11th) Roll Call

[ALady]

Let's give a big round of applause to ALady and Taterbug for setting up the first Waterfall Project event. I was sorry I couldn't stay, but a lot of time and effort is put into these events, and they are such nice people that they deserve credit for their hard work!!!! Way to go, guys!!! Thanks so much for your selfless efforts and for bringing everyone together!!!!

Thanks and cheers, indeed. It was great meeting a bunch of you in person, too.

Thank you both for coming - so glad you could make it! Honestly, whatever time we put into it was repaid in spades just seeing everyone catching up, making new friends and having a good time. The fact that we were able to translate that into cash money for some very deserving organizations...that's the cherry on top!

We may be bringing this back for the San Francisco run...stay tuned!

Got here before the opener, and the posters were already out. Anyone have an extra for night 2 or 3, by chance? Or will the artist be selling it through their website at some point. Thanks

[Bob Loblaw]

The poster situation is easily the only complaint I could have. Got one the first night but not the next two. As early as I arrived, and as empty as the venue was at the time, I would have expected to score one both nights. Supplies must be super limited!

Gideon
OBH

Okay, after being spoiled with front and center of the pit for the past two nights, I was in DD tonight. When they opened with "Mageetah", I almost started crying because I was so sad I wasn't in the front again.

And then during "Strangulation", I actually did start crying because that song is fantastic. 

Anyway...

I have to say, after finally meeting some people in Louisville in April and then again here these past three nights, I'm really impressed with you MMJ fans. The concert etiquette is EN POINTE! Damn, we could teach Chicago crowds a lesson or five million.

Can't wait to see people again at another show...

[WickedMessenger]

Another good one tonight! Love them playing down on the bottom.

Such a groove when they play Down on the Bottom. Hope to hear again. And Mahgeetah for the opener is awesome.

Here is the final bow from the boys after their three night run at the Chicago Theatre on June 11, 2015. (Patrick gives one of our own a hearty handshake.)

Dude! John, thanks for capturing that moment!

[EverythingChanges]

These sets are better than OBH. Cannot wait for Columbus.

[littleacorn]

Wow....I have never been to a show quite like that before. It was better than seeing them the very first time! I think that has something to do with finally having a great spot right on the edge of the stage directly in front of Jim. I met some great folks at the show too. I'm now trying to come to terms with being back at work today.... Anybody have a recording from last night so I can treat my co-workers to that greatness?

[MMJ612]

That may be the best encore set ever!!!  I'm glad I was able to attend the first two nights, but the night 3 encore looks unbelievable. 

[dub82]

This is one of the better set lists I have seen. Good god.

[fijiboard]

Pretty crazy there were no repeats over the last 3 nights. Hope it's the same in Detroit.

[MJComp10]

Still hasn't quite sunk in, what I witnessed both Tuesday and Thursday.  Being in the pit, literally right in front of Jim both of those nights, watching the guys perform at the highest level I have seen, getting all three of my spontaneous curation requests (The Dark, Strangulation, Honest Man), crossing O is the One off my bucket list, even Jim touching my finger during Victory Dance last night haha....everything was just awesome.  Met some cool people as well, and we all rocked out hard.  I'm sore, my ears are ringing and I could use some more sleep, but I don't care.  Of all the MMJ shows I've been to, these were special.
