QuoteI have this in a file that reads Sundance Film Festival 2007.  I'm checking to see if its kosher to share before (re)posting a link to download.  I note it seems to have been removed from the Steam Engine blog, too.  We gotta respect the band when they don't want certain tracks put out in public, though I assumed DPB was released, along the lines of the Louisville is for Lovers series, with a number of Jacket tunes (Good Morning Dove, Epichord, etc.).


I have the track, its a great one, I just don't know where it came from. Mine is also from SunDance 2007.
don't rock bottom, just listen just slow down...

Wheeeeewww.... How Could I Know was *a* white whale (there are still others), but I'm listening to it now and reminiscing about the T5 versionnnnn... and I remember my surprise at the first couple notes of it, and I was in denial for like the first 30 seconds in disbelief....... then I actually just hung around the pearly gates awhile singing along til they finished...... sheeewwwwww talk about a mirror reflecting a mirror, as someone once said......

I'd say Same In Any Language is up there now... but that's by some other group.......

Hey, AMC!  Is it just me and my shoddy memory, or have you been gone from these here parts for some time now?  Welcome back.

2000!

Your memory serves you correct- It has been a while since I've posted. Work+Commute+Freelancing+Wedding Planning= not really much time for anything else.

well i've been to 6 MMJ shows and I have yet to see "Where to Begin".....maybe someday. That's my white whale.

I've only been to 4 shows (none at T-5), but have still managed to hear at least 5 songs from each of the 5 studio albums: TTF-6, AD-5, ISM-8, Z-7, EU-5. I've also seen a few good ones from the miscellaneous releases. But there's AT LEAST one from each of those 5 studio albums I'd still like to hear live. Mostly: TTF- The Bear, AD- Strangulation!, ISM- Masterplan, Z- Into The Woods, EU- Librarian. As far as other stuff goes, I'd love to hear Sooner, O Is The One That Is Real, and Tyrone. Kind of avoiding the question by listing so many, but truthfully I wanna hear them all live!

Devil's Peanut Butter, of course  ;)

This would be mine, although Im guessing there is no chance they'll ever play it.

In that case, I'll go with Why Dont You Love Me or When Will They Come??

The mp3 I have says its from Sundance Film Festival Sampler 2007 Disc 1

I think I posted a link to it once after I'd uploaded it, but admin deleted my post.  I may be remembering it wrong, but I think its a track MMJ doesn't want to circulate.  Can anyone verify that?

the two songs i'd been wanting to hear live were "twilight" and "tyrone." both of them played on night one of T5.  to say that my mind was blown is understating it.

side bar:   i had a ticket to the dallas show where mmj performed "tyrone" with erykah badu, but didn't make the trip.  i still haven't listened to a recording of that show. 

at this juncture:  i am white whale-less.  :)

I knew this thread would be less impactful to the lucky T5 fivers, but there must still be some song you've yet to hear live (and want to).  What about their cover of Pink Floyd's "Mother"?
