London Astoria

Hey all,
Has anyone outside England actually received their tix yet? Getting a little nervous about getting them, but also excited as heck for the show. Crossing my fingers for Sooner, Phone Went  West or The Bear but will just be stoked to be with so many MMJ fans as rabid as myself. 10 DAYS!

I believe hours encounting are pretty much universal, dude!  :D

So what about the setlist? Which songs do we hope for?

[DuDess]

at dawn, bermuda highway, xmas curtain  :)

and just one thing

Haha, you're quite right!
I'm like a kid at Christmas time trying my hardest to wish the hours away & speed up time  ;D

I concur with those.

I'd also like to hear Steam Engine which seems to come by rarely these days. And I think i'm going to hell.

Of the more obscure wishes, i would have to say Cobra!

 ;D

are you going to need sedation on the flight db?? if you're this excited ALREADY, i hope your wife realises her husband's going to be bouncing off the walls of the cabin on the way over!

 ;)

...are you going to need sedation on the flight db?? if you're this excited ALREADY, i hope your wife realises her husband's going to be bouncing off the walls of the cabin on the way over!

The flight is the only part that I'm not looking forward to.
There are no direct flights from Nagoya to Heathrow so we have to transit in Seoul. The whole thing door to door (hotel) is 24hrs +  :P :P :P
My wife can sleep on the plane but I can't, which makes it even worse.
Anyway, I'm not complaining...I get to see my family, my little sister get married
& my first Jacket show!!!

[ali]

what you really need is to get okonokos on the inflight screens!! now THAT would make flying a pleasant experience!

[dragonboy]

That would indeed be great!
It's my first time flying Asiana Airlines. I hope they have the individual TV screens with a choice of movies & games etc, that always makes such a difference.
I plan on listening to all four studio albums in a row during the flight.

[ali]

asiana? never heard of them... next time i have an international flight i am definitely making sure there are individual screens...

i listened to a lot of mmj on the plane, a lot of sigur ros too (which was nice & relaxing to try to sleep to)

Yup, ordered them on august 17th and they arrived two weeks later.
 :)

[DuDess]

Mine arrived 5 days after ordering them.


....my second wish list: steam engine, I will sing you songs, I just want to be your friend (mostly the chapter I + II stuff)

I like these demo-stuff, because it sounds like Jim James sits in your room and he sings songs for you. really nice  :)

[size=18]so yeah, some b-sides and demo-songs, please!![/size]

[Tore]

In Sydney it is now

[size=24]ONE WEEK TO GO![/size]

 ;)

[ali]

very true...  ;D

;)

Quite right Sir!!!
So that's it guys, I'm flying tomorrow & won't be posting for a while. I was a little worried about the countdown but it looks like Tore is in the case.

I nearly gave the game away last night. I suggested to my wife that she pack her WM3 T-shirt, she asked why & I replied 'for the gig'!
I don't think she caught it but she knows something is up. I think she knows that I've booked a hotel...still she can't have any idea that we're seeing the Jacket...SEEING THE JACKET!!!

[size=12]ONE WEEK TO GO!!![/size]

(Sorry Tore, had to do it one last time!)
Still not sure if I'll be able to make it to the Tottenham. I'd love to but I'm still not sure of my schedule etc.
 I'll be wearing a black & white Free The West Memphis 3 t-shirt, please say hi if you see me!
Take care until then & safe journeys for anyone who's travelling.
See you in a week friends!!!  ;D ;D ;D

[size=12]YES!!![/size]

[BH]

Enjoy db.  I'll be thinking of all of you on that night and I can't wait to see a setlist and a report.
