Is there a doctor in the house tonight?

Temping indeed but August 28th is my dad's 80th birthday so that's where we will be celebrating.  Enjoy the show and looking forward to seeing the rest of the dates!

Got tickets this afternoon- so many acts in our wheelhouse over the two days. This will be the wife's first MMJ show, and while probably limited in length, a good introduction to the band's live magic. Appearing early Sunday is S.G. Goodman, whose recent album was produced by Jim.

That SG Goodman album is great, highly recommend it!  Everyone getting tickets - Enjoy!!
Cuz it's been so long since someone shattered me.

Dream headliners for me, rest of the lineup is pretty weak.

Wouldn't be able to justify a trip to Kentucky for this.

Wish DMB headlined bonnaroo instead of foo fighters or Lizzo

Ugh, to each their own. DMB is a major deterrent for me. Hard pass.

Same. Actually love the entire lineup, except DMB

I'm with both of you.  I'm digging the entire lineup except DMB.  I still think its worth it for a nice weekend getaway for me and the wife!  :beer:

We're right there with you Mr. White.  Our last festival was Forecastle Festival (2016?) and it was good but even with VIP tickets it was simply way too much and honestly we don't have enough gas in the tank to stand around outside in the heat for hours on end seeing a bunch of bands that we only maybe kinda sorta want to see, much less doing that for three days in a row.  Looks like it's cancelled again for 2021 so if they come our way it will have to be a regular show.

Come on MMJ do your hometown proud and blow the roof off one of the fantastic venues in Louisville!  How about a couple of nights at Palace Theater or maybe a solo show at Waterfront Park on a nice summer eve?  See you there...

I would fly out from CA for one night of this! Yes please! Sounds delightful.

someone here had a fine suggestion before covid hit: they could play the only large venue in town they haven't already played, the new soccer stadium.

having said that, the old man in me is slowly losing his taste for outdoor shows* and unpredictable weather.   i'd much rather see them at the palace, or even the yum center.

*this does not apply to one big holiday tropical vacations.

Anyone heard anything about Shuttles from Lexington to venue? Im staying in downtown Lexington.
Is there a doctor in the house tonight?

If they can give DMB a full 2 hours on Sunday, then the headliners who are actually from Kentucky surely deserve 2 at a minimum. I was really bummed to see that, and to see the overlap with Billy Strings. I'd choose MMJ over literally anyone, so it's not a tough decision to make, but I'd have liked to see Billy for the 6th time this year!

Still, being at my first Jacket show in 756 days will be cathartic for sure.
