Title: MMJ Forum Calendar
Post by: johnnYYac on Jul 24, 2010, 08:47 PM
I've put together a Google calendar of MMJ and Forum related info.  Its just started, so be kind.  There may be mistakes; let me know.

I'm trying to get to where members can add to it, but maybe its better if I keep control for now.  Thoughts?

This calendar includes album release dates, upcoming shows, when tix go on sale (so far, Portland only), and Forum members' birthdates, where I could find them (I went through the Off Topic Ramblings postings for two years).

Send me corrections, tell me your birthday, other important MMJ/Forum related dates, etc.  Post info here, PM me or email me, or HOPEFULLY, you can add it yourself some day.

You can access the calendar at this URL: http://www.google.com/calendar/embed?src=john%40johnnyyac.com&ctz=America/New_York

I love this! Such a great idea! Brilliant! How about making forum members birthdays in another color though? Is it possible? Just to make it easier to tell the difference? If not, then still awesome stuff!  :D

I'll look into it.  I need more birthdays, people!  

EDIT: I was able to add an icon to member's birthdays.  I'm also playing with background.  Keep 'em coming.

One of the perks of being a teacher- two months off!  However, I am full time dad to my three girls this summer and have a lot of stuff going on.  This happened because, once I get an idea, I can't let it go.  Isn't there a name for that?  I'll have to spend the day researching.

I need your birthday, Sir Jason.  And any other Jacket dates of relevance to my little project.

Anyone know the birthdates of the boys, including JQ, DC, etc.?

Yeah, as a nod to me and the other Deadheads, I've included Jerry's B-day and D-day.  All other events are MMJ-related or forum members' birthdays.  I hope folks don't mind.  

I did include M. Ward's birthday and would do the same for the other MoF crew and anyone else related to MMJ by one degree of seperation (A. Bird, B. Solee, D.M. Moore, M. Mogis, C. Oberst, etc.).  Still don't have any birthday info for current and/or former bandmates.  

Also, don't have many forum members' birthdays.  Its totally voluntary, of course, but seems we should have flyguy, aMillionDreams, Kory, BH, and many, many more frequent posters or long-time members represented.  

[size=9]Thanks, woodnymph.  I haven't been using my new (first pair ever) glasses and misread the date.  Fixed.[/size]

You're in.  I kept The Prez out of it, to avoid any political fallout.  Fucking Republicans and Tea Party pricks tend to suck the oxygen out of a room (ooops.  was I  thinking out loud again?  sorry).  So I don't want to offend anyone.

And, hey!

Thanks, Eric.  You're in!  Hope to see you at a show again real soon.  Had a great time talking with you in Vermont.  Garden State, represent!

Who else are we missing?  I know there's a ton of you that need to get on the calendar.  C'mon, don't hesitate.  If you're shy, PM or email me.  I want every date on this bitch filled!

And I still need the band member's birthdays, if anyone knows.

lil sis is added.  Fellow Taurus?  So, you got MMJ on SNL in 2008 as a birthday present (did you catch it or were you out celebrating?).

If you haven't checked yet, go to this link to make sure I didn't screw it up or forget:

Unfortunately, I was not a Jacket fan in 2008.  I was, however, turning 25 that year and had a huge party in NYC so all was not lost.  ;D

Revisiting the Forum Calendar and need some dates.

Specific release dates for The Tennessee Fire (May 1999), Heartbreakin' Man EP (May 2000), and MMJ Does Xmas Fiasco Style (October 2000).

Also, still looking to add Forum members' birthdays and other key dates from the history of MMJ.

Yes, the next big thang.  I checked program listings for the PBS station out of Boston (WGBH) and found no airings in their schedule.  On the NHPTV site, this episode is being broadcast at midnight on Tuesday, Jan.11.  So, check your local PBS station website for their schedule, or catch it online.
