New London acoustic show ?

[Ajaxx]

I've just had a list of upcoming shows e-mailed from the Barfly club which says that Jim James is playing an acoustic show there on 29th September. It's at the Barfly Acoustic which is a tiny room above the Enterprise pub.

Anyone know anything about this ?

Interesting. We'll have to watch the shows page for confirmation but that's just over a week away.

[small_stakes]

Fucking knew this would happen. The 29th September is literally the only night that i can't come to London to see them. So bloody typical.

So does this mean they'll be squeezing in a full MMJ show before the USA tour kicks off in London as well?

If anyone has any more information please come forth!

[loper]

CCBaxter/Riny,

WTF is going on????????????

Nothing  announced about this. Is it occuring???

When you go to the Barfly website, its  there in all its glory, but when you smack the buy tickets buzzer, nowt happens.

Is this for real????????

[CC]

don't know anything yet.
when news comes along i'll be posting it right away.

[SMc55]

It's less than a week away now. Maybe it's not been announced here because it's such a small venue  :-/

We couldn't go anyway at such short notice. Going to London is a bit of an expedition for us: organising cover at work; child care; transport costs etc. I hope some of you who live nearer get to see it - if it happens.

Has anybody called Barfly to see what they said?

[loper]

I called the number on the website and it was their ticket agency who say they no nothing about it. :-/

[CC]

I expect some details soon.
stay tuned...

[loper]

I've phoned the Barfly direct now, but they are very vague about the whole thing.

From what I could understand, the Barfly are only providing the venue, but someone else is promoting the show. Who that was the guy I spoke to was unsure. He said that there'd be tickets on the door. I asked if I could buy tickets in advance and he said he didn't know who was handling that.

He said he'd try and find out some details over the weekend and to call back on Monday.

Thats the best I can do at the mo. :-/

[EC]

Maybe it has something to do with Elizabethtown?  Is that premiering in London anytime soon?

all info is now on the news+shows page!

See!
He DOES care about you guys/gals over there. I'm pretty sure that whatever happened that cause the other show to cancel was unavoidable.
I also think it seems awful considerate of him to fly over there to do one show RIGHT BEFORE they start what is going to be a pretty extensive tour of the states.
Most dudes would probably take the time to chill and collect themselves. The flight over there and back will probably be pretty tiresome.

Somebody in MMJ cares about you.  :)
Just sayin'.

Woah, you make it sound like we'd slagged Jim off or something. That never happened. Just sayin'.

no way at such short notice  :'(

never mind - have a great time loper  :D

[wordawg]

Its a bummer, but as the good doctor says, no chance of getting it sorted in time.
Which is a real pity, given that my work is a pile of shite at the moment.

[loper]

Thanks doc.

No chance you can make it, now we know whats happening?

It would be interesting to know the background to this gig, bearing in mind the busy schedule Jim must currently have.
