AAAHHHHHHH!!!! I haven't been logging into this Forum much lately, actually heard about MMJ's addition to the Bridge School lineup via a friend. This just made my month!

First of all, the Bridge School Benefit is always a great time. I've been to several of them in the past, and the lineups are always amazing. Collectively, over the years I've seen Paul McCartney, CSNY, Metallica, Sonic Youth, Ben Harper, Lou Reed, and dozens of others. I bought tickets the day they went on sale, got killer seats, and was already very excited to see the show...but now My Morning Jacket slide on in!! Unbelievable!!!

This could be a great showcase for a new song or two, and if they step into the Crazy Horse role (which is a perfect fit) and play anything with Neil Young, Shoreline is going to go f**king nuts.

So freaking stoked!  I promise to try take some video on my camera for you all.  I have only filmed my dogs romping on my fairly new camera....so lets cross our fingers that I get some sweet sound on it  ::)

I would like to see if anyone wants to meet up before the show on Saturday.
We would have to be there when the doors open.  
Lets' meet at the Phil Graham bar in the front.  
I think MMJ may be the opener?  any info on when they will play?

My Morning Jacket
Tegan & Sara
Regina Spektor

I think that if they open the show at 5pm let's try at 4:00 pm.

Let me know.  Luv Dawg

Does anyone think they could play Going to Acapulco, the song they made for the Dylan movie. If they did, this would right everything that is wrong in my life right now.

Seriously I can't stop listening to it.

They just might warm it up for the "I'm not There" show next week.  I wouldn't be suprised.  

A Hollywood Babylon however is probably out of the question. :)

Have these performances (Bridge School) ever been taped in the past?  I would love to hear what a "full band" acoustic set sounds like from MMJ.   I mean, is Two Tone going to have a stand up bass?  Is Bo going to be on piano?  I am intrigued to say the least.

Every single PJ performance has been taped.  I don't think they allow recording, so I think the tapers have to be pretty stealth about it.
There's Still Time.........

That's good to know. :)

I believe the order on the Bridge school site is accurate.  I have been told that MMJ is #3 on the lineup..........  Looking at it from bottom to top, it makes sense that the order listed will be the order played.  I will look for you at the bar, if time allows.  I am at the mercy of my 2 friends wishes on when to get to the show.  I hope to meet you though!   And I am so excited to go!

Travel safe!

i will be at the phil graham bar close to 4pm.  (have to stop in sf before the show to pick up flat keys to my friends' apt.).

it's 1am.  my friend is picking me up to take me to the hairport at 7:30.  better hit the hay.

hey teo and dylan:  i'll fling some peeps in your honor!  (sadly, they will be lamely tossed, as is my peep-tossing style.)
