MMJ at Lollapalooza?!?!? Rumor or True?

[fitzcarraldo]

Wow pretty Amazing lineup. Nothing but the best for MMJ. Love what the promoter said!  :D  

[The DARK]

Do I predict new songs!?!?!? Absolutely!!!  :D

[markcel]

The only thing that would make this better is a late night show Saturday night.  Come on, make it happen!!

[Kory]

FUCK YA!!! now I gotta get $195 so I can GOOOOO!!!! :)

Holy shit, it's 195 dollars? That seems very high! What's in that, just admission?

[vespachick]

Yep, just admission.  But on the bright side there are no hidden taxes or fees...unless you want a hard ticket to be mailed out - in which case they charge the absolutely reasonable rate of $12.00!

[Taterbug]

I need my MMJ fix so bad right now, I'd go to fucking Baghdad for this.

Parts of Baghdad are safer than Parts of Chicago. The Hotdogs & pizza are better in Chicago, although I've heard they make one mean Corndog in Baghdad.
I'm so JACKED UP for this show, and I only have to take a 30 minute train ride to see it.   :).
For $ 195.00 I better get a personal hand job from Parry Farrell. ( just kidding, not my type, he has a penis ).
I've never been to lollapalooza,  I've heard they over charge for everything, anyone else heard that. $ 5.00 for a  bottle water, etc.... etc...

[markcel]

I've gone the last two years.  Sure everything is over priced, but with a 3 day pass, you can leave and re-enter as you choose, so you can buy more reasonable priced items outside the park.  (Last year, one day tickets could not leave and re-enter.) Also they let you bring in 2 unopened bottles of water, much like every other fest.  

One concern about MMJ playing right before Pearl Jam, last year Broken Social Scene had that time slot and was only given 45 minutes if memory serves.  I know 45 minutes is better than nothing, but 60 or 90 minutes is better than 45.  All this can be remedied by adding a late night show Saturday.  If I mention it enough maybe it will happen.

[vespachick]

This is kind of off topic but I haven't heard any MMJ airplay in ages; suddenly today they're throwing on some Z.  Coincidence? This may be the harbinger of sold out arena shows. :-/

[Taterbug]

I heard OBH the other day on 93.1 WXRT.

[Fee71]

Im already looking into air-fare for this, so much for bonnaroo. Ian, are you and orange jacket guy, up for this????? If I book this and it was just a bad rumor, this will be me  >:(  haven't been to Grant park since taste of chicago 2006 where we got to see the boys for free. It's on Cant wait.

Peace and love,

Cody

Does anyone know at what point last year they started selling one day tickets?

one of the mods over at the lolla forums stated that single day tickets for this year will only be sold if and when the three day passes sell out, early summer at the earliest if that... so to be safe I wouldn't count on them selling single day passes

Its the other way around, if the 3-day passes dont sell out then single day tickets will be sold. Heres the link:

I've heard from several other message boards that they've pulled this cat and mouse game about single day passes the past 2 or 3 years and always end up selling them.

Also if the rumor about MMJ i going on before PJ is true that means they will be playing on Sun.

I thought the same thing when I heard One Big Holiday open the new movie "The Lookout" :-/

[JohnnyRage]

Last year there was a lot of crossovers between Lollapalooza and ACL Fest. I think they share a Rep. or something.

[The DARK]

I heard OBH the other day on 93.1 WXRT.

I love XRT. Even though I don't live in Chicago anymore.

[Taterbug]

Any station that plays MMJ is awesome to me. They play all the oldie moldies and some good new stuff.  I grew up listening to the Loop, they changed the format a little to much for me.

[DaFunkyPrecedent]

gonna buy my 3 day pass as soon as i get back from coachella.  i know after that fest all i'll wanna do is go to another, especially is MMJ is preforming.  Infact, i will go where ever they are.  at this point in my life, being 21 years old, its the only thing that makes sense.  

See ya'll there!  Wait until all you fucks see Daft Punk! saw em last year at coachella...best show i have EVER seen, EVER! better than NYE Fillmore, and thats saying a whole lot.  

LOVE

I'm not trying to be a jerk, but does Daft Punk even play instruments?  It just looks like a couple of DJ's playing tunes.  If I'm not into the whole rave thing, do I have a chance to enjoy them?  I'm definitely not ruling it out that it could be awesome.  

Also, enjoy all the stuff you can at 21.  I have many regrets, as it gets much tougher as you get older with work, family, etc.  I'll only be able to attend Lolla for 1 or 2 days at most, that's why I'm interested in Daft Punk to learn if it's a can't miss.

[NoVa_NoLa]

gonna buy my 3 day pass as soon as i get back from the new orleans jazz fest.  i know after that fest all i'll wanna do is go to another, especially if MMJ is performing.  In fact, i will go where ever they are.  at this point in my life, being 37 years old, its the only thing that makes sense.  

See ya'll there!
LOVE
