1 WEEK FROM TODAY....

My wishlist for this show would be very picky, but:

- EVERY Tennessee Fire song
- EVERY At Dawn song
- Tyrone
- Cobra
- and a smattering of selections from the rarities disc
- and of course a Jim solo set!

Has anyone been trying to win tickets to this show? I have absolutely no luck getting through to radio stations but I've been listening non stop to WFPK and only heard a give away once. Will any other stations be giving tickets away? If I win I'll give one of my tickets to the first one here who wants it :)

bug,
have they mentioned a broadcast of the show yet?
If so I'll my gear all set up so the wife can just press record on my computer for me.

Anyone think I'll have a hard time getting a slr camera in the door at the gardens? It's not exactally the type of camera I can stick down my pants...

No mention of broadcasting the show yet so it might not be happening. It seemed like last year they hyped it up for a while so I think if it were going to happen they'd say something by now :-/ I looked at the website today and saw the announcement for the show but no mention of broadcasting. Maybe if we bombard them with requests they will hook us up :D

I'm really bummed about missing this, but I've just spent too much money on shows recently. I noticed last year that all the bands I want to see come to Louisville between October and December. One or two will pop in during the spring and maybe one or two during the summer but then autumn comes and I have 20 shows to chose from. I guess I could have worse problems I just wish they were a little more spread out.

I hear ya there... I'm planning on hitting Bonnie Prince Billy on Saturday of next week as I can't pass that up for 8 bucks...
Also in december I'm going to have to make the Hold Steady show for 11 dollars...
not to mention black keys are tonight but I'm not going to be able to make that...

Oh man you should really try to get out for the Black Keys! The opening band is awesome as well, The Black Angels. Also there is a rumour that Gillian Welch might be at Pour Haus tonight. I'd go check that out if I didn't already have tickets to see the Black Keys.

Sad things is, I've missed more shows this year than I've seen because I have to beg people to go with me. Nobody wants to see shows on weeknights :( and I hate going alone.

sorry to post again right after myself, I just emailed WFPK to ask if they'd be airing the show or even just streaming it from the website and the DJ said he didn't think they were going to do it this year.

Thanks for the info!

It just hit me that i can make it to the show

Is the venue all GA and what is it like?

Corndogs And Asscrack · Nov 16, 2006, 02:35 AM

It's all GA. The arena is 7,000 or so seats with an open floor.

HailHailPJ · Nov 16, 2006, 02:38 AM

Sweet so think it wont be a problem to buy tix the day of?

high_ride36 · Nov 16, 2006, 02:43 AM

I hope the band starts their set off with At Dawn. I can't think of a more perfect way to start the concert.

I am very excited to see them next Wednesday! It's going to be a night to remember.

;D it's awesome that VHS or Beta will be there too!!!

marktwain · Nov 16, 2006, 08:20 AM

Oh, man. I just saw that they've been playing "tonite I want to celebrate with you.' *fingers crossed*

awesome!

I don't think FPK is broadcasting the show this year... bummer.

thebigbang · Nov 21, 2006, 06:00 PM

Going to the Garden Party . . .

Hope it turns out better'n Rick Nelson's inspiration. Even if all they play is new stuff that's never been released, it's likely to be great anyways.

I just realized today that I have not posted in the MMJ forum since JULY. Must be some kinda time warp thing going on. Must be.

See you all at the Gardens in about 24 hours!
