Looks like the opening band is 28 North

Something tells me theyre local  ::)

They are local.  I guess this gives us more time to drink in the parking lot.   :D

My thoughts exactly, although I was hoping the opening band would be someone I would want to see so I had the incentive to get inside earlier and get pretty close. I dont care if im on the rail or not, but I dont want to be that guy who walks in 15 minutes before MMJ starts and pushes their way up towards the front

Wow, do I hate when people do that! I notice some people doing that at the Columbus show. I think if you get there 3 hours before the show and you wait in line that long and you get up front then it's your spot. I don't think some one should cut infront of everyone at the start of the set to get up front.

Has anyone hear of this band? I'll be there early anyways to try to get as close as I can.

[woodnymph]

Oh man 28N is definitely local, but I'm not real sure what they sound like.... I hear ya on that though, about holdin down the front.... I guess I'll still head in to see 28N just to do so, but meh... wishin it was someone I at least know! Can't write much though, on the road to Red Rocks tonight but I'll be checkin in on here when I can! Thanks for posting the opener!!

I know the last time they played Pittsburgh Dr. Dog opened for them. Scott even joined in on "one in the same" I hope the weathers going to be nice...I'd like a good summer concert on the river.

pittsburgh and philly fans are always ignorant, so expect to get a shorter setlist than i get at canadaguia. i bet you they play with more heart and more energy at canadaguia because they know fans are going to be more respectful in a smaller town.

enjoy your mediocre show!

Comparing Pittsburgh to Philly fans just shows how ignorant you actually are

And why do you care what happens at our show?

I really don't care either way. I like anything they play. I mean I'll hear all their songs in New York.

I'm looking forward to a fantastic show in Pittsburgh.  In some ways, the Pitt show venue has similarities to the great show in Philly on Sept. 5, 2008 - a big parking lot down by the river, near a bridge at the end of summer and GA (mostly the true fans are up front in a show like this which greatly enhances the experience); we even have a hurricane churning in the Atlantic, like the one that arrived just as the Philly show was ending.
Gonna pack a good friend (fan but live show virgin) and the wife (not so much a virgin) into the car and head up the road from MD on Friday and meet up with my son who lives there now.  We're looking forward to having a blast with some of you up front.
We shall see if Pitt can bring the love but I have no doubt that the Jacket will put on a kick ass show no matter what.

(At least we're fortunate that Hackdowner won't be there.)

Sweet....glad you can make it. Only a few days away.

[woodnymph]

ohmylordohmylordohmylordohmylord this is comin up so soon, i'm cruisin across teh country to make it in time! :-P even if i roll back into pitt by noon on friday, with no hours of sleep beforehand, i will be rocking out as hard as the hardest rocker-outer, if that makes any sense? pardon me, i just drove across death valley today, failed to camp at a KOA due to unforseen circumstances, and gave in for a luxurious hotel. though cheap, it is still the bees knees.

i actually have my ticket in my car just in case said instance occurs and i have no time to go home first. i'll cross my fingers that that's not the case and i'm well-fed and well-rested for the show, but ahm just sayin.... LET IT ROLLLLLL

what's with the nega-tor pitt comment, by-the-by? that's random.... that also mentions mmj and "mediocre" in one fell swoop. tsk tsk!!

after bein on the road for 2+ weeks, pitt is lookin' mighty fiiiiine! and after seein the boys rock their hearts out at outside lands, i'm all sortsa fired up for my hometown show!

i know i'm a rambler in more ways than 3, but just had to throw in that while i was driving through yosemite park yesterday before camp, the clouds were casting these unreal shadows on all the gigantic granite domes, and i had [highlight]STEAM ENGIN[/highlight]E on from the [highlight]2004 PITT SHOW[/highlight] and had to pull over because "It's not the dream.........." et al. just synced up so perfectly with the cloud shadows floating across the rock faces....

ok i'm delirious, better hit the sack now... i haven't been able to pop on here for some time, so's i just had to spew there   :-X

4 DAYS AND DRIVING I MEAN COUNTING!!!!  :o :o :o

Whaaaa??!? So 28North and DMM will be opening? Id like to see DMM and all, but this would start to be cutting into Jacket stage time

Edit: DMM site and myspace both say he is opening for MMJ...so does 28North's site though too  :-/

Gimme all DMM.  I can live without 28north.  And I can definitely live without two opening acts cutting into MMJ's stage time.

[capt. scotty]

Maybe since DMM is opening now, MMJ will tell 28 North to go dahn to the river and buzz off  ;D

I honestly cant see 2 bands opening this show though
