Ah, so there's precedent (Da Funky Precedent, ya?).

Enjoy! I've also scanned the inserts and CD label.

hotel Roy- "Helicopters" w/Jim Olliges (aka Jim James aka Yim Yames) in 1997 (I believe he was 20 yrs. old)

Smiling in my Sleep :)

So I have no idea what to expect or if this may yield a response, but I can't help hearing a likeliness to the band HUM throughout some of this Helicopters album... maybe especially in "Smiling in my Sleep"

Sorry it took me so long to get around to this, but here are two recordings from the Month of Sundays, Jim's first band. They used to be one of the hottest bands in Louisville back when Jim was all of 13. This is also the band that Jim was in with Aaron Todovich, aka dondante. Don't forget to pick up Mont de Sundua back Removador:

Thanks, Dylan. I have Mont de Sundua. Does this download contain tracks not found on that release? Also, I couldn't get the link to work.

These are two releases before Mont de Sundua, all the material's different. Mont de Sundua has a different name because those were tracks they recorded after Aaron left the band. I checked the sendspace link and it's working fine. Try again.

Did you get the download to work, Johnny? If so maybe you could upload and post it here so more people will appreciate it. ;)

johnnYYac · Aug 01, 2010, 04:28 PM

Hey Dylan. Thanks again. I got it to work. Currently downloading.

Yeah, just added some photos from Newport to the johnnYYac website: http://johnnyyac.com

I'm watching out for a spare EU ticket to fall into my lap. It would be the only one I could do, but that would mean sleeping in my car or driving home that night, unless some floor space opens up.

I've approached the limit of my wife's tolerance for shows and money spent (I recently figured that, from Nov '09 MoF through Oct. 15 MMJ @ Portland, I've spent over $2500 on shows, hotel, car rental, posters, and booze). She feels guilty when she considers spending $30 on a pastry pan. So, we'll see.

headhunter · Aug 06, 2010, 02:03 PM

very cool site. my wife and i are going to the philly show in a few wks and i 2 pairs of tix for each of the 5 nights. as of now i still don't have a partner for shows 1 and 5 so if can't find one easily i'd be happy to give you my 2nd ticket.

Penny Lane · Aug 06, 2010, 02:21 PM

if he doesn't want it, i'm looking for another EU ticket...

johnnYYac · Aug 06, 2010, 02:59 PM

Quoteif he doesn't want it, i'm looking for another EU ticket...

Penny, you're definitely in for all 5, right? If you need another for a friend or whatever, I'd defer to you on headhunter's offer. I'll keep my eyes open, and really appreciate the offer, h², but as I said, I may be pushing it at home to make a run to NYC for that last show. Its a 4-5 hour drive and I can't justify the costs for staying over in the city. Not that I won't keep trying, if it works out with minimal $$$ impact. I love MMJ, but I love my wife infinitely more!

that's how i am, i have a friend that wants to go for EU night but if i don't get one for her, it's not a tragedy, so if you want it,...otherwise, yeah i'd love it.

i have tix for all 5 nights...(6 nights including carl's gig)....that felt good type...6 nights! i've never done anything 6 nights in a row. heh.

Well, aren't we a couple of polite little ninnies! I suppose headhunter is out there thinking "don't I get a say in any of this?"
