Wilco at the Palace!!

[Chills]

Some interesting remarks by two tone tommy in the College Tower about the tour with wilco...

How did the dates with Wilco come about? Is it a good pairing?

Yeah, we're huge fans of the band and it's a great opportunity. They're on our short list of bands we'd like to tour with. It's quite the blessing that we've been given the chance to do it.

When you open for a band like Wilco, that can be pretty delicate, do you guys go full throttle? There's a chance that MMJ can upstage people like that.

Well thank you. We've open up for bands like Guided By Voices and Foo fighters where we'll go just 45 minutes at full throttle, just non stop. In your face rocking out. And we've opened for Beth Orton or Doves, where we have to kind of mix it up like what you said. I think the Wilco tour will be the same thing. The same way that they do. Where you mix some slower tunes in there with the more rockin' ones. We have also closed a show with Black Sabbath when we open for Beth Orton which probably wasn't the best idea but certainly funny to us.

I was listening to the Jim solo concert from 5-1-2002 in Knoxville, TN.  At one point he's talking to the crowd about how the venue (Tennesse Theatre) was so beautiful that it was almost like playing the Palace, which he described as a theatre in his hometown that he's always dreamed of playing at. I think Jim's going to be just as excited as we are to be at the Palace!
