MMJ now listed for Bridge School Benefit?

[rainman]

I hope they don't make it "no taping" again. That would REALLY suck.  :(

bridge is never open taping.  never.  
however, there is at least one taper (probably more) that i know will be there.

i have a friend selling her seats for sunday.  section 204 row L, for face if anyone is interested.  i think she is selling her saturday tickets, too...but i don't know the location.

I just bought tickets, I'm so excited!!!

Good to see you post, I remember you sending me that Okokonos dollar from NYE! Cheers again and have fun, this is the millionth reason I'm jealous of Californians!

MMJ has been good to California!

I was desperately trying to win tickets for Saturday, but no luck. I'm only going Sunday. Anyone going both days? It should be nice weather for an outdoor concert that weekend.

I am interested as I can no longer buy tix in the pavilion on ticketmaster (however there are plenty listed on craigslist at face value...so I am not sweating...and I have a friend here who can hook me up with some seats at $125...ouch).

send me a pm please!

thanks!

Then I will send Liz my mics and she can just throw it on the floor and get what she gets stealth!

dude, my husband has a friend from Phish tour who had this very stylie set up....a mic hidden in his freaking baseball cap....do we have time to invent this before next weekend?  still have not commited...waiting to hear back from a friend in sf who would be my date.

yep Liz, my mics clip nicely to the sides of a brim of a baseball cap or a cowboy hat for that matter. the cord is long enough to hit record, hit the hold button (so's you don't accidentally hit a button) and slip it in your pocket for 74 minutes at a time.
If it comes down to it, I can record myself using it (controls and all) and send you the video and the mics/MD recorder and charger along with some blanks. It's your call though, I wouldn't want it to spoil your time worrying about it. You'd be the hero though...

[the_wizzard]

I may be going.

Liz, fyi, there's way more availability if you fly into San Jose instead of SFO.

Anybody know how long these shows last?  Last flight out on SW is 8:30p; I'm trying to determine if that is time enough or do I try to skip work on Monday...

Thanks for the tip Vespachick.....I have decided to invest in killer seats for Saturday and skip Sunday.  One of my friends in SF has gone to many Bridge School Benefits and her opinion was that it is a long day.  I am at her mercy getting to Shoreline, so I am going to hope that Saturday is some good stuff.  So I am doing the quick flight in on Saturday, go to the show, come back to SF and hang out in one of my favorite cities for the day, then leave Sunday evening.

Kory....as much as I would love a recording and would love to be a hero....I may not be the best candidate for taping........... :-[ :-[ :-[

Where are you flying from?? to SFO??
I am flying in from down south, San Diego going to SFO for the Saturday show, I got lawn seats as this is many in a long line of bridge shows so budget is the foremost.....

Lisa -Love dawg- looking forward to hearing Patrick on the drums in acoustic set- I do  Love Patrick!!!!

No worries Wiz, it would distract you from a good time, I'm almost sure of that. Do us a favor and have a great time!

I am coming from up North...PDX to Oakland.  We are being realistic on our ticket hunt (lower level tickets are top $$$$$).  So me and 2 of my friends are trying to get some tickets in the upper level of the pavilion.  We have thrown out calls to all our friends at Ticketmaster and LiveNation to get tickets.  Should know by tomorrow where I will be sitting.

I am so excited!!!!!  I get a girly weekend in the city and acoustic mmj toboot!

[vespachick]

bleh.  I just can't justify the cost of this trip.  I'm gonna have to stay at home and weep instead. All this vinyl I've been buying lately has really put a dent in my mad money.  I gotta save my pennies for my T'day trip to Louisville and the Bourbon Trail (hic). Plus, I'm my dad's date for his seasons tix to The Ducks and they are playing USC this Saturday, so I guess that will have to keep me entertained this weekend.  

You girls have a good time and bring back lots of stories!

Hey VC, I know something you can sell me that will earn you a little scratch...

[sweatboard]

 :o  This is not that kind of site.

[Kory]

:o  This is not that kind of site.

haha, not that kind of offer, I'm a married man... it merely involves the sale of a certain 7" record...

[Kory]

:o  This is not that kind of site.

And what's with this 13 posts since your big 5000... that's not like you. are you taking it easy or something? Don't go losing that lead...

[ms. yvon]

lisa, wizzard!  glad to see you'll both be there!  i've got a ticket for saturday (sect 204, row v).  if i can find a sunday night flight home, i'll hit sunday too.  

i got a res'd seat b/c i'm going alone, but lisa, if i find you before mmj's set, i might just dance near you.

WOOOOOOO!!!  HEARTBREAKIN MAN!  just putting in a request.   :D

SEE YOU THERE!   [smiley=beer.gif] [smiley=vrolijk_26.gif]

[the_wizzard]

Hey Ms.Yvon!  I was thinking you would make the trip up!  I am at the mercy of my friends in SF on when we arrive.....but duly noted, Bill Graham bar!  I got word today that they are number 3 on the lineup.....which is exactly where I thought they would be!  

And I am soooooooo hoping for some Tennessee Fire love ::) ::) ::)
Everything on that album is built for an acoustic set (personally, I am pulling for a By My Car &/or Evelyn is Not Real).

I am going to purchase tix tonight and I am aiming for section 204 as well!  I will let you know where I land!

I am so excited!!

Hi there Yvon, I am gettin' out of the San Diego fires and into the MMJ frying pan!!
I fly out of here on Friday and ready to get there about 4 pm on Sat.  If they are confirmed for third in the line up we can meet up at the bar.  

Regina Specktor is fantastic I saw here in SF this summer.  

I am torn with the fact that we have been in the front rows at The Fillmore for New Year Eve and at the Greek in Berkley and now I am waaaay back on the lawn.
Our band is moving on up to the big time and we have to share them.  Oh it is the good and the bad.....I am glad I can be there and they are doing it at the Bridge.  Neil Young knows to pick the fine young talent and the boys are on their way....

[Tahoe Kat]

That was my thought exactly! To go from front row and practically touching Jim to being all the way in the back?.....Oh well, it is still a pleasant surprise that we get to see them at all this fall. See you guys at the bar!

[TEO]

Y'all have a GREAT time!    :)

[aMD]

Definitely have a great time and then tell us all about it!
