Quotebtw , that setlist is pretty good...congratulations. 25 songs...guess that means Jim is giving me 32 in Canandaigua. :D

Or 20...

Guess Jim and the boys like Pittsburgh a bit more than you were leading us to believe eh hacksaw?  Especially given the fact that Patrick busted out his #43 Stillers jersey and all.   :D

And being a yinzer pays off once again!!! That Canandaigua setlist looks pretty standard (and short) and Im not sure I couldve put together a better - and reasonable - show than we got in the Burgh.

Im hoping they post pics from the show and there's one of PH spinning the Towel in the Troy jersey

My neck is still sore from all the rocking out  [smiley=2vrolijk_08.gif]

QuoteI find is hilarious, that shortly after True left, Pitt gets a date. He's been begging for a show there forever.

That's motherfuckin' John Oates!

Mr. Headdy I wish we could've met up also, but I totally understand not wanting the awkwardness of making it up front! It was super non-packed when we last talked, but it sure did fill in!

My neck is definitely reminding me about the night! I slept in my car again last night, at a fest in Ohio, and it's usually real comfy but I think I felt my neck the whole night anytime I tossed and/or turned hahah Oh well, there's no controlling my reactions to such a show!! I headbanged as hard as my neck allowed that night! You know what though, the pain is like a sweet reminder of all the magic, in a sense........  [smiley=vrolijk_26.gif]

I forgot to mention, unfortunate though as I am for not getting into MMJ sooner, The Way that He Sings was the first song that got me onto them, and for them to open with it was like this omen of what was to come... it was like a dream show. More details keep coming back as time goes on oh oh like the Steam Engine.... I've never seen them do it before, but they jammed it out so well, and the ending reminded me much of the way they ended it in Pitt in '04... just the same kind of finishing sound.... it might just be what they do.  I've been the same as Capt, I haven't looked at setlists or listened to current shows or anything, tryin' to be all surprised  :-X Which by god I sure was more than a little surprised all night!!

As a last noter, I was driving to Ohio yesterday and had At Dawn on (song not album) and 3 really big flocks of birds flew out over my car, like big schools of fish, just flying right then left then straight ahead, pretty much just dancing in the sky, making wild shadows and it synced up rather well....

WHICH REMINDS ME (do I ever stop typing?) I'd like to snap a pic of the poster for folks to see too, which just so happens to be all birds in a crazy pattern! Just one thing after another with those guys... and with Jim saying the year he was born was painted really big in the museum he visited just makes it that much more 'right on track'.....sheewwtt....

Oh my god they rode the incline the night before too, where were we all at??? Hahah how'd you like to be catchin' the incline and seeing them walk on.... danggg  :o

Been listening to the classic rock radio station WDVE's morning show, and multiple times the guys have said how the Stone Temple Pilots show blew on Saturday, but damn, that My Morning Jacket show on Friday kicked ass  8-)

OK, here are my 2 videos from the Pittsburgh show.

Gideon:

Unfortunately the sound is somewhat messed up and I almost cried when I heard them given how perfect they sounded from where I was standing.  The video is OK so hopefully this still brings back good memories for those at the show who can mentally dub in the great sound.

Aw I hear ya on the tears shed for quality loss when capturing the precious memories, my camera is craptastic for audio... but any captured footage of any kind, to me, is way better than none! I'm gonna check these out now, thanks so much for posting them!!!

Sorry guys because this video is of really poor quality, but i wanted to share because i think it reflects the energy of the band and the fans in general.

I must have been just a couple of people down from you based on your description.

I was trying to spot meself or the other 3 folks I was with, but it pans through the people pretty quick (which is expected with such a raging song being played!!) I wonder if there's a slow-mo button on the 'to0b...  :P

I talked to a guy in the lot who had a 'roo shirt on (I think!) Hmmm it's hard to say.... I posted a pic of the ppl I was with & myself earlier in the thread though, so maybe you might recognize us??
