Wow, I bet the guys in the band are pretty excited about this one. They are going to do some Last Waltz type shit at the end of that show, I just know it.
:D

I was thinking some sit-ins on a few tunes would be amazing.
(Is that you mr. conaway? :))

Actually, that would be Brian.
oh man, this is KILLIN' me! Our second child is due on July 9th or I would be there in full force. BOBBY D and JIMMY J - holy doo-doo! this is sure to be classic.
You guys have fun for me.
Excellent news for the boys!
Can anyone on the forum make it to the show?
What airport should i look for tickets I would be flying in from philly or newark?/?
fly into denver red rocks is just outside of the city...maybe 20-30 minute drive.
Wow, this will rule so hard!
i might have to try to make this one. I've never seen the band outside of da ville but i've always wanted to see a show at red rocks and this would be tremendous! hmm....
ReckogniZe!!! (sp) :)
I'll be there, just moved to Denver from Knoxville and I was so pissed I missed their show in asheville, but I think this will make up for it.

The Jacket & Bob Dylan...surely it doesn't get any better than this for you aMD? :)

Yeah, you were the first person I thought of! Your two favorites in a classic venue. You gotta go.
flying from Texas to Denver for this show , I do travel for the Jacket and Red Rocks best venue hands down ,
so yeah someone from the board will be going
and it also gives me a little time to get in shape for the Rocks last time I was there I think I died a couple of times, I almost quit smoking the whole time I was there
whats cool is that I got drunk on 4 drinks ::)
I am trying hard to be able to go to this. I never heard of MMJ until I saw them open up for Bob back in 2003 in the Ville. Now I get to see them again open up for Bob and this time I'll know who they are. ;) I just hope I can get off work for a couple of days so I can fly in to Denver.
I'd totally b there but I'll b seeing sad ol queen, 'Morrissey' in Florida. 4 shows.
Last year some of my friends went to Red Rocks for 311 just because they've always wanted to see a show there. I might have to convince them go again this summer for this.
I wish so badly that I could make it out to this...

Ive been to Red Rocks on 2 seperate occasions. Its something else. I have been to a few shows in my day, but Red Rocks is AMAZING!!!!!
I would love to hear the jacket rock out red rocks!!!!!

That would be cool, but when MMJ opened for Bob at Jillian's Parking Lot (even more spectacular than Red Rocks) in Louisville, they were quoted as saying they didn't even get to SEE Bob much less meet, greet or play with him.
Maybe Bobby will chill a little more this time around. Even so, he put on a great show that night.
I will be there - I'm in Oklahoma now, but used to live in CO. Red Rocks is amazing, I've been waiting for the day that MMJ would play there. The only (minor!) drawback will be the short opening set, but hell, with Bob as the main act I can't complain and surely there will be some collaboration at some point! I'm so freekin psyched about this one!! We'll see y'all in the parking lot.
THURSDAY?! THURSDAY?!!
rats. rats. rats.
this is gonna be a stunner, for sure.
wow wow wow.
In case you didn't notice, they are also opening for Dylan on the following Saturday at Telluride.
Telluride Town Park in Telluride, Colorado
on Saturday, July 21st.
Totally psyched! It'll be interesting to see if Bob can follow... So, are we going to need a code for the pre-tickets tomorrow?
Can't wait to see MMJ at Red Rocks with Bob Dylan!!
;)
Yes, a pre-sale password appears to be needed from Dylan's tour dates page, as TM still only lists Dylan and not MMJ on their website.
you can find the pre-sale info on dylan's tour page:

10AM today, Colorado time
i want to go to this so much it is ridiculous. times five.
Quotei want to go to this so much it is ridiculous. times five.
i'll take a solo Jim show at the Rud anyday...(just trying to make myself feel better since i don't get to see dylan/mmj...stupid Colorado)
Road trip peoples! Meet me in Oklahoma and we'll carpool - your employers should well understand why you'll be taking that week off...
Hey Crispy, enjoy that 6 hour stretch from Salina to Denver. Quantum leap that for sure.
I-70, meh. I've driven that piece more times than I care to count. I like the scenic route of the OK panhandle and northern NM over to Trinidad if I'm not in a hurry. There's a stretch of hwy 3 in OK that's totally straight for over 100 miles, another quantum leap there.
How long do you think their set will be? Anyone?
45 minutes
The pre-sale tickets suck BTW. 49th row for me...
Usually at Red Rocks, the first 25 rows are GA, 26-60 (or something like that) are reserved, then it is back to GA after that. Get there early, and you'll be able to get really close, unless it is the very rare occasion where the first 25 rows aren't GA.
The first 25 rows are GA at this show too - I'd anticipate a bit of a line before the gates open, but getting in below row 25 should be pretty easy. I've just got to convince my pals to go in early, usually we hang out in the parking lot too long.
It's official!
[size=28]I'M GOING!!!!![/size]
I haven't bought my tickets yet but i just got done convincing the wife. oh shit!!!
Dylan / MMJ: Part Deux: Red Rocks
i feel like seeing this show would be like seeing TWO TITANS MEETING. really this is a pretty ok combo
It's all happening!!!
Now we just gotta convince them to bring the show to the Gorge Amphitheater in WA- 2 nights preferably, but I'll settle for 1
i cant NOT go right? im in N. Arizona....its not that far. fuck, shit, cock balls. what do i do? i'm already going to Austin and Lolla...can i afford one more??
You can't afford not to go, DFP! Why, you're just a short hop from Telluride in N. AZ. (Flaggstaff?), if you don't want to go all the way to Denver.
So who else got tickets? I got mine today. Should be an epic show with the Jacket and Dylan back to back.
Anybody catch on Dylan's website that he's playing a second show at Red Rocks on the 20th? Presale tix go on 6/5 @ 10am Denver time. Any reason MMJ won't open this show as well???? I have tix for 7/19 THAT I NEED TO SELL FOR FACE because I can't go...Friday is a different story if MMJ opens. Anybody need tix and anybody know if MMJ will open????
all you kids need to go to the telluride show too.
seeing a show in telluride town park is just as epic as RR in my humble opinion!!!
i'm from southern colorado (pagosa springs). july is PERFECT camping weather.
save your self some cash and camp!!! i so wish i wasn't getting married the week before these shows, or i'd be at all 3!!!
email me blainesanders@hotmail.com
if you need any info regarding where you should stay/camp!!
i just emailed you.
Quotei feel like seeing this show would be like seeing TWO TITANS MEETING. really this is a pretty ok combo
they should photoshop everyone's faces and make it the official poster.
