Thought I'd follow up on my initiation at Red Rocks with a quick trip to Montana. Only 3,300 are gettin' in, and I'm one of 'em; Row 4

[stas]

I just saw that we are going to get a treat here in Montana in late September. I have not seen MMJ since late 2004 when they play back in Louisville at Headliners, with the old line up. I have been a fan for awhile, actually went to school with Jim and wrestled against him at Saint Xavier freshmen and sophomore year. Crazy.  Anyways I was wondering if any way to get a hold of Jim just to say "hey, way to go, well done my friend" and ask him to hook a old Highlands (Louisville KY) native up with some tickets.  Anyways.. JIm if you read this and can remember back to the 125 weight class JV wrestling team at St. X in 93 it would great to say hey, and too hook you guys up with some spots to chill out in Bozeman while waiting to play. Give me a line at    Staskusak@hotmail.com . Peace out. look forward to hearing MMJ live in Bozeman!

hey jim, my name is Casey Smith - I ALSO wrestled against you JV season. REMEMBER ME?!.  Just wanted to catch up with ya when you come to Berkeley.   Ya, this is where i live now.  Crazy where life takes ya.  One minute your drinkin' whiskey and shootin' 22's with the good ol' boys in Kentucky and the next thing you know your working some internet environmental awareness non profit in Oakland California. I got a real cool house though, it's right near the venue.  Also, my brother has a bar in downtown we can go party at after your show... Let's put down some tall boys, just like old times and we'll see if I can still pin you like the bitch you are!  Hit me up Jimmy!

Unfortunately due to a scheduling conflict, My Morning Jacket has cancelled their show on Tuesday, September 30 at The Brick Breeden Fieldhouse in Bozeman, MT.  Fans who purchased tickets through the Bobcat Ticket Office (either in person or over the phone), can return their tickets to the Bobcat Ticket Office for a refund.  Tickets purchased through TicketsWest (either online or their call center) will be given an automatic refund.  Tickets purchased at an outlet must be returned to the same outlet for a refund.

Bummer...  it sucks when a band unexpectedly adds a date then cancels it.  At least it wasn't like Dream Theater a couple years ago when they cancelled the day of.

This is highly suspicious. Scheduling conflict my ass. How does a show of this size get booked and stay booked for weeks without someone catching a scheduling conflict?

The simple fact is the Bozeman show has been canceled due to lack of ticket sales. The theater in the Brick is a 3,300 seat venue and as of Friday last week they hadn't sold half of the tickets yet. Lets be honest about why the show is canceled. I can understand the economics of it. If its not profitable to make the stop then you don't, and I 'm sure these guys wouldn't mind another night off. Just tell the truth.

Logistically speaking it would have been a better move to book a show in Spokane, WA; Boise, ID; or Salt Lake City, UT on the way back east after the Portland show. There is a much greater likelihood of selling venues in one of those three spots than there was in Bozeman, MT.

Way to go, Bozeman, you donkeys. Too busy elk hunting to see a rock n roll show? The entire state of Montana should smear themselves in bacon grease and walk into grizzly country.

On the bright side, now I won't be tempted to buy a $50 T-shirt.

Goodbye 4th row, I hardly knew you.

what's with the censorship?

Discuss, disagree and debate politely. It's possible.

Yeah, I just didn't like the name calling on the dude's first post ever.

I still think the bacon grease is a good idea.

Wow, I'm glad I didn't commmit to this show.  It would have been the 2nd one cancelled for me this tour. :(
I second the Salt Lake stop though!!! Pretty please :-* :-*

[Roscog]

Complete bummer.  If it has to do with lack of sales then the blame needs to be put on the promoter.  A bunch of us were coming from Jackson, WY.  There was absolutley zero marketing on this show.  No radio, newspaper - zero.  I was pretty much responsible for selling at least 10 to 20 tickets by word of mouth.

I am so disappointed.  Not a great move for MMJ either as they are trying to build their fan base and a successful show in the rockies would have done that.  Oh well - cheers to the streams and downloads and hopefully a winter tour back in the west.

I heard it got cancelled because MMJ originally wanted to play in Missoula, but had to settle for Bozeman. The boys then realized that if they couldn't play in the Missoula than Montana would have to wait...

Well, after looking at the dates, Bozeman was Tuesday, the 30th and Leno is Monday, the 22nd.   Unless I'm missing something, one had nothing to do with the other.

I can't believe the show is cancelled. Seriously, "scheduling conflict"? That is very suspicicous! We had to make some major arrangements to get to this show, not to mention cancelling our son's second birthday party (okay, we are rescheduling that)!
