bouche Posted September 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2006 I am...internally. It's so incredible.I haven't SEEN MMJ yet, so this is why I'm in a panic on what to do. I absolutely LOVE the Slip, so it seems like a perfect opportunity where I can get 2 birds stoned at once (Ricky TPB).MMJ just opened for Pearl Jam. The Slip are opening for MMJ. How many degrees of seperation do we have here?Don't forget their Duo connection and the Duo's Trey connection. Oh, and Brad played with Mike G. and the Duo at Higher Ground as well.It's all coming together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimoe Posted September 16, 2006 Report Share Posted September 16, 2006 Hey Mike, without any hyperbole, I think MMJ are one of the best live bands playing today and one of the best I've ever seen, period... plus their albums are fantastic and Jim James exudes charisma.

[/quote'] exactly mang. for me, seeing The Slip (Bostonians) being part of a bigger thing than I have ever seen is more than I could hope for in a show. You'd get one little opener Slip set that would smack ass and then, as an MMJ virgin, lose that ass. Cool recipe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AD Posted September 16, 2006 Report Share Posted September 16, 2006 'Tis definitely a good show. You'll come away from it mindblown for sure.
