Louisville Waterfall Shows, April 6 & 7, Roll Call Contest

[Stevie]

As soon as they announced this I had a feeling they would have it where they are having it.

I sure would love to go tonight! Anyone, anyone have a ticket for tonight? I have a lot on my plate right now and can't risk taking the time to not get in!  I'm not above begging!

Well, that was a really special show for sure.  We waltzed in at shmate-thrifty and walked right to the front, stage left.  Major feels and goosebumps at multiple points.
When the boom of the drums kicked in on Believe, my whole body got goosbumpy.  The harmonies on Like a River gave me chills.  The Waterfall is a contender for one of my favorite Jacket songs already.  Just outstanding.  The howls during Spring were spot on.  The jammed out ending for Only Memories Remain was Dondante-esque.  Master Plan was given a treatment I've never seen before.  Lots of soloing.

I've never been to a show at this venue and I thought it was bigger than it is.  When we got to the box office and saw the capacity is 650 or so, man, that was an awesome feeling.  $10 screen prints were a major bonus.  The lighting was minimal (house lighting I assume), and no backdrop or anything.  No drum riser.  While I never saw MMJ play this venue before, I did get to see them in several clubs over the years and I never really thought I'd have that opportunity again.  Quite a treat.

One last note, the typical jerk-offs who can't keep their mouths shut for 20 minutes at a time were present as well.  When Jim started Get the Point on acoustic, a nice tender quiet moment, I got to hear all about the girl behind me and her tire and work problems.  It is mind-blowing that you can get into a show like this that some people would give a whole lot for the opportunity to attend, and act like that.  The lack of phones in the air was refreshing as usual.

I'm really looking forward to hearing what the show tonight is like.  Ya'll are in for a real treat whatever happens.

Big Question:  the previous poster touched on it but was Jim actually howling for Spring or did they have some or all of the howls pre-recorded?  I think the very beginning and ending are the parts im most interested in.  Thanks!

The "howls" were real.  Both Jim and Carl were doing them.  Edit:  At the end, it was Carl "howling" and Jim was harmonizing over the top of that.  Very nice.

Can someone post a picture of the poster?

I thought for sure Bo would be playing the Merrill Garbus howls on a loop

It's possible that did occur, but some stuff got lost in the mix.  I was able to see and hear Jim and Carl doing it though.

Someone's bound to beat me to it, but I can have a photo of the poster up in a few hours when I return from work.

I thought the howls were on a loop. I'm pretty sure I remember them going before Jim went to the mic?

The poster is nothing special. It was white with black lines running downwards like a waterfall. I almost bought one, but I'm getting the two Cbus posters instead.

The show was very special and it has only made me more excited for the summer.

Down on the Bottom will most definitely be in rotation methinks.

Bermuda Highway was worth the trip alone.

Have a +1 for tonight don't want it to go for waste.  Like chicks, but looking to give it away so don't be scared.

I'd be happy to go if no one else steps up.  I went last night and someone who got shut out deserves to go before me.

Crazylove needs to be someone's +1! She's driving up from Indianapolis as we speak.

Thank you!! She is so excited. I also messaged you her phone no and gave her yours.

And try not to take too much advantage of her, she's shy and introverted at concerts. 

[Stevie]

Gonna laugh when crazylove turns out to be a dude.
