Announcements Today, Tomorrow, and Wednesday

MMJTX · May 01, 2023, 11:40 AM

For those who aren't keeping up with the discord.
MMJ just announced announcements for Today, Tomorrow, and Wednesday at 1PM ET time each day.

I'm guessing New Album, New Fall Tour Dates, and not sure what else? Maybe that new merch from the fan contest, did we ever get that announced?

I like your guesses.

Tour openers announced today, makes sense, kind of forgotten that they hadn't been announced.
M. Ward opening for both night at RRx is pretty sweet, hopefully some Monsters of Folk songs get played during Jacket's set!

I'm not in the habit of checking discord so thanks for heads up about this week. I forgot about tour openers too. The next two announcements - fall tour dates followed by album news? That would be outstanding.

Kind of a bummer, sounds like today's "announcement" was just general on-sale for the previously announced hollywood bowl show with fleet foxes..

This is also strange as that Digital Deluxe has been on the OBF website since March 30th, I purchased one then.
Seems like their playing catchup on their Social Media's today.

ya i wonder if an announcement on something had to be delayed and they just updated some social medias with "updates", hopefully we get something good today!

Well i guess yesterday's announcement was live concert video of the Roo '04 performance. Pretty cool to have but was hoping for more (tour or album)

Hopefully we at least get OBH sales going soon and OBH lineup as well

Very cool that we'll be able to watch the 'Roo performance (or at least a good part of it) very soon.

OBH sales/lineup won't be until the summer as per their announcement. Hopefully we'll get fall tour news before that.

I don't think it will be a very long documentary, and it won't have all the set.

"I should mention that even though the band doesn't have a new album out, you do have a new release pending. It's called "Bonnaroo 2004 (Return to Thunderdome)" and it's the official vinyl release of a rainy, muddy festival set that has been described as legendary and iconic. What does it mean to you personally to have a set that people regard that way, 20 years later? - Interviewer Question to Jim

We've just really been geeking out on it, so much. We're just so grateful to still be around, grateful people are interested still. We're going to release a short film about that show sometime soon, in the next week or two, that we've been putting together. We had to dig and dig and find the footage from 20 years ago, and we were laughing so much about how much the world has changed. We all look so much younger. It's crazy seeing the kinds of cell phones people had back then. It's pre-smartphones, pre-everybody filming, pre-social media and all that stuff. It was kind of a cool way to look at the world. We were really just so grateful that we still enjoyed hearing the music and we still enjoy playing the music after all these years. So it was really cool to kind of dig back in and not only mix the music and listen to it but to look at that video too. They didn't film the entire set, everything that they filmed was three or four songs. And then we had some footage from that day, and we had people talk about it. So I'm glad for people to see that film we put together and take that walk down memory lane." - Jim

There it is....proof the show wasn't completely filmed, after all these years. I can say the Same isn't true for 2008 and thank God 2006.

But I'm excited for this film.i hope it's included with the package but if not, that's fine.
Got the show coming.
So I got tickets to MMJ in Arizona plus seeing the Cure next month, Flaming Lips in August and Ryan Adams and the Cardinals (DROOL) in October. Very excited for this year, especially to keep seeing songs I've never seen yet live.
Hope everyone is doing good, healthy and strong of mind, body and soul.
