Fantastic. If all goes to plan I'll be able to see Jim 3 times in the next few months. Hope I can score a Webster Hall ticket and can't wait to see his set at Roo.

Interesting! Yes, Big Herm! We'll definitely see him on 5/2 at the L shaped Cannery. Get there early so you can be in front of the stage and not by the bar.

I will be at stubb's but my question is when are they adding the NOLA Jazzfest Late Night show. With the nights off before Austin I figure this is a good shot or perhaps a ACL taping on 5/5.

Wooo!!! Awesome news! So glad Jim is not only hitting Toronto, but playing at the Phoenix no less! One of my favorite venues in town.

Looks like Jim was true to his word in that he would leave a few moths after the record drops before the tour started. Looking forward to learning this record front to back and dancing my ass off at these shows! Also very pumped that all these dates are well before Roo. Was worried the tour might interfere with Bonna itinerary!

Asheville it is...  Kind of wild looking at all those major markets and then one small town.  It's a neat place though and always look forward to going, and relatively close to me, about 2 hours away.  Damn, Atlanta got nothing.

Most likely. I'm planning on Chicago for sure, and then once I get those tickets, I'm sure I'll wind up getting on to C-bus as well.

EDIT: looks like $26 for Columbus as well.  has anybody seen anything for the Chicago show?

According to LEO, the band includes "drummer Dave Givan, bassist Alana Rocklin, keyboardist Dan Dorf and Kevin Ratterman on percussion and samples."

I am definitely interested in Philly - probably the only show I could realistically make. I saw Tame Impala at Union Transfer not too long ago and it's a pretty cool place. I just hope I don't log on at noon Wednesday only to find there aren't any tickets available for roll callers again....  :undecided:

At least we got a short meet-up after the show!  But meeting for that beer definitely sounds good to me!  :beer:  My wife and I usually hit up Elevator Brewery and Draught Haus before we see any show in C'bus.  Good beer and good food.  It's on High St. near the Arena District and about 2 miles from the Newport.  There are also plenty of places within a short walk of the Newport as well.  We can figure things out closer to the date...

just don't try to drink there...or drink too much...or look suspicious...they're WEIRD there..my friend got padded down because he was 'going up and saying hi to too many people' and to drink liquor you have to buy a membership and go to the club downstairs (and you can bring one guest in) PS i love the venue but they're STRANGE..

That is weird.  I've only been there twice but...I think I was even the weird guy there one time...but never been harassed.  I'm more of a beer guy so I don't usually go downstairs, but we went down there last time...they do make some pretty tasty beverages, but they are $$$ (to be expected).  More than anything I was amazed how empty it was last time I was there.  White Denim and Maps & Atlases and the place was EMPTY.  Maybe 100 people?

Definately hitting up the DC show and might actually hit up the Asheville show as I've been looking for a reason to hit up one of my favorite southern towns.

The Orange Peel is a great venue as well, if you've never been.

just don't try to drink there...or drink too much...or look suspicious...they're WEIRD there..my friend got padded down because he was 'going up and saying hi to too many people' and to drink liquor you have to buy a membership and go to the club downstairs (and you can bring one guest in) PS i love the venue but they're STRANGE..

That is weird.  I've only been there twice but...I think I was even the weird guy there one time...but never been harassed.  I'm more of a beer guy so I don't usually go downstairs, but we went down there last time...they do make some pretty tasty beverages, but they are $$$ (to be expected).  More than anything I was amazed how empty it was last time I was there.  White Denim and Maps & Atlases and the place was EMPTY.  Maybe 100 people?

Kind of strange to hear that though as Asheville is considered the "Paris" of the south and the local college is pretty much a hippie haven.  I figured the peel would be a pretty laid back venue.  I grew up about 2 hours away from here in VA so I'm used to the unusal ways of a lot of the southern towns can be so hopefully we can get around that whole ordeal.  I'm still really stoked about the venue as a lot of people I know say its an awesome place to see a show.

I have a meeting today at noon when the Roll Call sales start, I'm trying to figure out if I need to take a quick exit to order tickets.  What exactly is the advantage of ordering today for a place like the Orange Peel?  Is it just to assure you get a ticket, I wouldn't think it would sell out super quick.  If they allow early entry for a show to Roll Call is it for all Roll Call members or just the ones who preordered tickets?

i'm not sure...i've been there 4 times and loved each show but it's a weird place and maybe it was just for DBT shows but there were undercover security throughout the crowd, my cousins and i got cut off the first time there (drunk but not disorderly or hurting anyone), my friend this year got searched (he was there with his wife, when he asked why, they said he looked suspicious going up and saying hi to too many peopele), I even heard Mike Cooley make a joke about having to sneak liquor backstage (they have some sort of law against it)..yeah, Asheville's an awesome hippie town, i love it but the Orange peel is just a strange place when it comes ot drinking.

i'm sure it'll be different for a JJ show..

I thought I would post this below in regards to the pre-sales happening this morning.  It's good to know if you don't, and a good refresher if you do.  Good luck to all!


"Please Note: Jim James is playing in much smaller venues than a typical MMJ show and due to venue contracts, the pre-sale inventory for Roll Call is very limited.  We wish we could offer more inventory during the presale, but we can't. If you are unable to secure tickets during the presale, please try during the public on-sale.

Also, please remember that fans have 8 minutes to complete a transaction once they have added tickets to their shopping cart. At the start of the presale, there is generally a heavy amount of traffic that hits the page and grabs all available inventory. If someone does not purchase the tickets after adding it to their cart, the ticket is then released. Presale inventory is not sold out until the "tickets" link takes you to the public on-sale link"

As much as I'd like to buy tix via my roll call account for the Fillmore show, the non-transferable thing is a total deal breaker.  PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS ROLL CALL. I'll have to wait for the general on sale because I never know for sure where my work schedule is going to have me months from a particular date.

Ok I got lucky and got in for both Chicago and Milwaukee shows. Chicago was not will call and Milwaukee was. I can't remember the last time I had to have tickets mailed to me. Strange there was not an option for print at home or will call.

I hear tickets sold out in less than 2 mins, so I am fortunate to have landed these. I hope to see everyone in Chicago and Milwaukee!

I just picked up two for Stubbs as well. I think that is a perfect venue. Great sightlines wherever you are. Still intimate as it's not a huge outdoor venue. It is one of my favorite places to see big name acts (went to Alabama Shakes/Smashing Pumpkins this fall). What other venue would you want him to play?

Almost signed up for Roll Call, to ensure I got tix.  Glad I didn't  :undecided:

1) I really only anted the Red Rocks download and the option to buy presale tickets.  I would have paid $29.99 for that, but not the $48 it comes to with shipping and processing.

2) Sounds like the presale thing isn't working for Asheville anyway...

I will be on the Orange Peel website at noon sharp hoping to score 3 tix!  The only shows I've heard anyone having problems with at the OP were the Jack White show this year, the Smashing Pumpkins 2007, and the Beastie Boys...fingers crossed.

Some of Austin's larger venue capacities (approx):
Mohawk - 800 (?)
Paramount Theater - 1200
La Zona Rosa - 1200
Emo's East - 1650
Stubb's - 2200
ACL Live at Moody Theater- 2550
Bass Concert Hall - 2700
Austin Music Hall - 3250

I think Stubb's makes sense.  I reckon Moody Theater would have been better ... but it's even bigger than Stubb's.   Emo's East is a horrible venue/location.  Anywhere else is probably too small.

I didnt expect to pay $50 for these tickets, too steep if you ask me.  I'd bet that 50 bucks is the most expensive show that has taken place at Webster Hall in years.  But it is what it is, just happy I got a ticket

Wow, maybe they've been under pressure to stop illegal activities at the venue or excessive drinking.  That happens from time to time, I know at one Widespread show near my hometown there was a report in the newspaper that 150 citations/arrests were made at the show or something crazy like that for various offenses.  Small areas can get a little too overly protective at times in the bible belt trying to keep everything under control.  I'll just have to make sure to be properly lubed up  :beer: prior to heading in.
