I think capacity for the Arcade Fire/LCD Soundsystem gig last fall was about 5,000

Got my name from rock and roll"

This is really cool. The fact that they'd schedule this show for their hometown fans is one more reason that they're such a great band. Should be quite a show!

Yeah, I was there last summer and it was packed but still plenty of room in the back. Nice set up with booze and such. We rode our bikes down to the park just to listen for free and after the third song, security and Lizi from Production Simple let like 30 or 40 of us in for free that were sitting in the grass outside. Awesome night.

and it sounds like they are pulling out all the stops..3 hrs, rolling up on the Bell of Louisville!

there is no telling what will go down at this show....if you can make it to Louisville i'd suggest doing so.  this will be epic!!!
If you're lucky, MMJ will fill the void you didn't even know you ever had. If you're luckier, you'll get to see them live.

You probably should if you want to hear 'If All Else Fails' live.

Are these tickets gonna sell out super fast?!?!

I live in michigan and am 17. I have been progressively gaining more freedom. Last month my parents allowed me to go to chicago to see wilco.  I told them this summer i will travel ANY distance necesarry to see mmj. I think this is the one. In their hometown.... and for 3 hours supposedly....   parfait.
cheers.

you will hear some MMJ classics they probably won't play on the Fall US tour!

i doubt tickets will sell out until the last minute.  louisville crowds are notorious for waiting until the week of a show to buy tix.

Damn!  Glad you're coming! Hopefully we can react our telluride experience, in that we'll be front row in front of jim.  :)  You're always welcome in my yard but I'm not within walking distance.  I plan on bringing the things I need with me and camping out in line on saturday.  We should definitely meet up.  We'll have to do a preshow meetup. on friday maybe? hell, it's GA show we could carve out a bit of the audience if we wanted to.

You guys were at telluride?  I was front and center for Jacket - im sure you saw me freakin' out.  I thought I saw some fans that might have been people from here, but i was so in the moment I couldn't speak to anyone.  Yeah - and those dylan fans kinda sucked huh?  They got all mad at me for comin up close for MMJ when NO ONE was up close.  I was like "I drove 10 hours for 1 hour of music...as soon as they're done, i'll move"...and they were like "IM OLD! BLAH!!!!"

Remember Steam Engine? ahhhhhhh.......
God damn those shaky knees.

Prom King

you folks are nuts!  i hope all of kentucky goes to see the Jacket so I can be front and center at Jewel & Brad Paisley over at Freedom Hall.

"dreams last for so long, even after you're gone...."

we can meet up and compare sets afterwords
