Yim Yames, Ben Sollee, And Daniel Martin Moore

[roberthunter]

Does anyone have any idea how this will work?  Are all three playing together?  Will Jim have his own set?

[FiddleCastro]

I am planning to hit up this show too. Looks like a good crew that is getting together so far. Bluesky owes me a beer so the Brooklyn Brewery sounds perfect!   ;)  Hopefully we all get tickets

coooool!  bagpipes?? ;D ;D ;D

Probably leave the pipes at home for this one...
I don't want to steal any of JJ's thunder  ;D

This is probably a wise choice.

And I believe all 3 together. I think they have an album coming out, too.

Album is already out.  And it's fantastic.

Just got 4 tix to this baby, with absolutely no idea who will want to go with me. And that's a-okay with me.

[Dodobird]

How did you get tickets already? I thought they went on sale tomorrow? I might be able to take one of those tickets off your hands if you want?

[jmk]

AMEX presale. I'm going to see if anyone joins me over the next couple months. I don't have too many worries. I'll be able to get at least 1 companion, and if I can't get anymore, I'm sure there are a couple good folks on here who would snatch them up.

Well JJ was supposed to do an album with DMM and Ben Sollee, but I have a feeling he was too busy and declined, so the album ended up just those 2

actually jim james produced the album. he also does background vocals on some of the tracks. not sure if he plays any instruments on it or not, but either way, it's some pretty good music. i'll be going to the charlottesville show, got tickets yesterday. they are on presale now...or at least they were yesterday.

[thegrimace]

Yuuuuup. Guess it's good I didn't go presale cause I just nabbed row A tix. woooo hoooo!

[roberthunter]

Picked up 2nd row for Knoxville!

[Jim Turner]

ah you suck roberthunter, I nabbed 3rd row in K-Town.  got aisle seats though, so it could be worse.

On a related note:  right now, if you go to pitchfork.com, and look at tours, they added a My Morning Jacket tour listing recently.  It lists 7-23 @ Bijou as MMJ's only stop in July, no other Appalachian stops are listed.  The date was already listed for Yim & Ben & Daniel.  This is really trippin me out, I'm unable to confirm that MMJ is visiting Knoxville anywhere else.  But hopes are high!

Either way, the Bijou is a beautiful venue for shows like this, can't wait!

[mike]

No offense intended, but why have high hopes for an MMJ date when you are buying tickets for the 23rd so you already exactly what is at the Bijou on the 23rd?

[Jim Turner]

Well, Mike, so far the show is officially billed as Yim Yames, Ben Sollee, & Daniel Martin.  I haven't heard the album these three put out earlier this year - I actually downloaded it yesterday, and am about to start it up and check it out.  But from what I gather of Ben and Daniel, and as this is billed as an "Appalachian Voices" tour, I get the feeling of a somewhat downtempo, more acoustic/folk type of show (I do not know if Yim is to perform solo, I'm sure all three will be together at some point).

Now on the other hand, I am pretty familiar with the MMJ catalog, and one of the only things I would like to see at the Bijou more than a Yim acoustic show would be MMJ rockin' their ****.  I personally loved Evil Urges, as likewise the rest of their albums, and would really like to see a bunch of those songs performed live.

So, MMJ / Yim Yames, we'll see, but again I'm sure the show will be great either way! (and maybe Yim performs a bunch of MMJ songs live, I haven't had the chance to see him live yet, perhaps someone else will fill me in)
