I believe it, but it surprises me. I was just looking at the venue, and it's a 21 and up place, seems that the Jacket would want to avoid that these days...

It is a bit different, but unfortunatly I think their options are limited to Sokol or Slowdown. Do they still use Mancuso Hall at the old Civic? They certainly have out grown Sokol. I haven't been back home since Slowdown opened but I do not think it's big enough to hold them.

All I know is if they are playing there, I may have to make a another trip back home....to visit the fam of couse. Yeah, that's what I'll tell my wife why I need to go back home.  ;)

They do use Mancuso Hall but that building has been a ghost town for awhile now.  Slowdown would not be big enough....Sokol....not big enough.  This will be a great show!  I can't wait!

SOOOOOOOO HAPPY!!!!

I know a ton of HUGE mmj fans in Omaha.  Been way too long since they have been here.  One of my favorite concerts was seeing them at the Ranch Bowl in 2001 i believe.  

This is a nice venue, just hope its nice outside.  They do have an early curfew tho, i think 11??  Hopefully the jacket will come on early so we can still get 3 hours worth. =)
